    Hi CTC,

    Hope it works well for you.

    Sorry I got distracted and did not get around to answering your previous question.

    The payment receipt you print/mail/text to the customer doesn't identify you but just shows the normal info like transaction type, amount, last 4 digits of card number etc.

    Your bank statement I think appears as "Streamline" (OH who deals with the banking not here to confirm at the moment).

    Not actually sure what appears on the customers bank statements as I have not asked anyone but I expect WorldPay would answer that.

    Bit of news - WorldPay have just put up a few videos which might be of interest while you are waiting for your new toy :)

  • thanks for getting back,

    and a BIG THANK YOU for the links...I must admit I think I might have been a bit confused without them:cool::D

    I notice that Izettle are saying something about a cut off point of 31st Jan for the free device

    so i wonder if worldpay will follow?

  • Hi

    I've been using the Worldpay device for a few weeks now on my iphone. There are a few bits of confusion is thread I can help with...

    Your own business name does appear on the cardholders statement (you can choose this when you signup) - and you can also do telephone orders via the website.

    On your own statement you will see "Streamline" as the money comes in to your own account. You don't need a merchant account, just a normal personal or business account in the UK.

    They have a few different price options at the moment, checkout mobile.worldpay.com/pricing-options for details.

    Personally I love it! Takes Visa, Maestro and MasterCard quickly with full Chip and PIN -
  • I've just had a look at the WorldPay site and it say's the payment options all require a payment for the reader itself of around £60. Has this only just changed or am I being thick?
    Cheers

    Yes, it has changed.

    At the time of the posts above it was free for the trial period but they now charge a one off payment for the terminal of £59.99 (£49.99 +VAT). They have also adjusted the transaction charges a little - an extra 10p on the flat charge for debit cards but a reduced percentage for credit cards.

    The only similar system I have seen have just increased their terminal price to £100 so WorldPay is still a good deal.

    intuit still offer a free reader and 2.75% across the board..

    Although I think worldpay will be following suit, as there's a poll about it when you login to their site..lets hope they do.. 75p is a little high for lower value transactions, also PayPal are due to release similar this month, with what I believe is a similar charging structure.

    Just to answer one of the questions, on the customer bank statement it shows your business name as you chose when signing up, I done a test transaction when I got mine a couple of days ago, I got impatient whilst playing with my new toy :o:o

    As for the device and how it works, its excellent, pretty much completely automated apart from inputting the amount to charge and then the receipt.
