How to keep your POS estates in top shape

Terminals must be cared for and supported to ensure they are optimized.

6 great reasons to choose Castles Merchant Services

It takes more to run a POS estate and keep your checkouts open and secure than great devices and software. Just like people, your terminals must be cared for and supported to ensure they are optimized and ready for action. And the bigger your operations, the more effort this involves.

Most merchants simply don’t have the full-time resources required to deploy, manage and maintain their devices in the field. That’s where Castles Technology’s Merchant Services come in.

Recognised for our world-leading Android and Linux payment terminals, terminal management software and semi-integrated payment applications, Castles also offers a whole raft of dedicated Merchant Services. This includes a 24/7 help desk, full customer support, UK and European repair and refurbish centres, and logistics handling, as well as CasHub marketplace a unique estate management platform that powers remote IoT data, apps and reporting functions.

Merchant Services is an important part of our business.

We have 800 experts dedicated to looking after merchant needs in the field. They work tirelessly to take care of your business and local needs and provide long-term value for all stakeholders.
