About SumUp

Whether you’re looking for a convenient, portable card reader that can take transactions on the go, simple invoicing, or an entire POS system with all of the additional features, SumUp supplies you with what you need to be successful all at a low price. Additionally, we keep our credit card processing fees as low as possible in order for you to maximize the profit you make per transaction.

We give access to financial services to the millions of businesses that are considered too small for most providers. They’re as much as 10 times smaller than the smallest businesses that would be targeted by banks and traditional providers. What started out as one card reader has now turned into a range of readers, multiple remote payment solutions such as Invoices, Gift Cards, Payment Links and so much more.

From our quick and easy signup process to accepting your first payment, we want to make things simple. That means no fixed costs, hidden fees, no bureaucracy and no surprises. By taking the hassle out of getting paid, we enable small business owners to do what they love.

As I mentioned before, Fivestars has enabled me to engage with my clients and their parents without having to make them spend a lot of money for other tutors and learning academies. They are able to enjoy the coupons and rewards while having the feeling that they can trust my abilities in teaching and tutoring. Fivestars has been easy to use and very important to my business.

Pros

I like being able to implement rewards for students that I work with to encourage them to keep on attending tutoring sessions while saving a significant amount of money compared to other starting prices for other private tutors. It is also an incentive for parents or students to push their kids to keep on developing their skills while supporting my own tutoring business.

Cons

There is nothing wrong with this software. I have enjoyed every feature and I am excited for new updates and ways to engage with my clients.

I use SumUp every two months or so when a market pops up or whenever I will know that customers will pay by card.

Pros

Amazing product! Made my life a lot easier. It is super simple, quick and effective to use. Highly recommend.

Cons

No negative feedback! Their business account works great, app is really quick and the card reader has long lasting battery. Have not faced any issues so far.

The word Excellent sums it up

Reviewed on 2024-09-05

Pros

This software is awesome. My customers love being able to tap their cards in order to make payments. The tap and go feature is extremely convenient when I am at craft fairs or outdoor vending events. No more keeping money in a pouch.

Cons

Sometimes the payments go through an additional layer of verification, which is understandable but can sometimes be a strain on a small business.
