I have just been told that my card reader machine company (I don't know if I'm allowed to mention it's name) doesn't allow payments for membership.  Does anyone know why or if there is a way around it?

You are allowed to mention its name, which would hopefully help someone assist with an answer - there will presumably be terms and conditions governing your contract with the company, do they make any mention of such an exclusion?  What specifically characterises 'payments for membership' as opposed to other payments you take with it?

As long as most of the payments made through aren't for memberships I don't see what they can do about it.

Is this SumUp by any chance as it does say in the T&C's that Mebership Fees are Restricted business payments?
