Do I get charged for a Lopay card reader?
Your first card reader is completely free (excluding £6.95 Postage & Packaging) if you transact £2,500 with Lopay in 6 months. If you haven't reached this threshold 6 months after the date you ordered the card reader, we'll ask you to pay £59 or return your reader free of charge.

What type of card reader is offered?

Our WisePad 3 card reader accepts chip & PIN, contactless card payments, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. It does not support swiping (magstripe) or CNP (Card Not Present) transactions. If connecting to an iPhone or iPad, you need iOS 12.5.1 or higher. Further details are available here.

Please note, the card reader must always be connected to your Lopay app to receive a payment and you can only connect one card reader at any one time.

Do I have to have a Lopay card reader?

Card readers are just one way for your customers to pay. With Lopay you can also generate a QR code on your phone/tablet for a customer to scan and pay, or send a payment link to a customer via text, email or social media.
