As a business owner, you’ve probably heard all sorts of things about card machines—some true, some exaggerated, and some just plain wrong. If you’re still unsure about getting a card machine for your business, it’s time to separate fact from fiction. Let’s bust the five biggest myths about card machines so you can make an informed decision.
Myth #1: Card Machines Are Expensive
Debunked: Many business owners assume that card machines come with hefty price tags and high monthly fees. The truth? Devices like the MiniPOS are now more affordable than ever. With our limited-time April flash sale at just R1299, & our GreenPOS card machine for R999 you can own a card machine without breaking the bank. No rental fees, no hidden costs—just a once-off purchase and straightforward transaction rates.
Myth #2: It’s Complicated to Set Up and Use
Debunked: Some people think getting a card machine means dealing with complex installations and ongoing technical issues. But modern devices like the MiniPOS are designed to be plug-and-play. You simply power it on, connect via Wi-Fi or mobile data, and start accepting payments instantly—no IT degree required!
Myth #3: Small Businesses Don’t Need Card Machines
Debunked: Cash-only businesses risk losing customers, especially as more people go cashless. Studies show that businesses that accept card payments experience higher sales and better customer retention. Whether you run a tuck shop, salon, market stall, or delivery service, a card machine ensures you never miss a sale just because a customer doesn’t have cash on hand.
Myth #4: Card Transactions Are Not Secure
Debunked: Security concerns are valid, but modern card machines use advanced encryption and fraud protection to keep transactions safe. MiniPOS follows strict security standards, ensuring every payment is encrypted, tokenized, and protected against fraud. In fact, card payments are often safer than handling large amounts of cash, which can be lost or stolen.
Myth #5: Transaction Fees Eat Into Profits
Debunked: While card payments do have small transaction fees, the benefits far outweigh the costs. Card payments increase customer spending, reduce the risk of counterfeit cash, and speed up transactions, improving customer service. Plus, with our MiniPOS flash sale at R1299 / GreenPOS sale at R999 the cost of owning a device is now more affordable than ever!
