Rental every month, a PCI fee on top, and a rate nobody walked you through. Most owners never add it up.

Published figures for the big providers put terminal rental at £12.50 to £30 a month per machine. It costs the same in year four as it did in month one, for a device you will never own, and it hides under the processing fees where nobody looks.

A PCI fee, a blended rate that moves when your card mix changes, and charges with names only the provider understands. Put three months of statements side by side and most owners cannot say what one transaction cost them.
