EFTPOS fees cause growing pains
Since 2011, Harman has grown his Star Car Wash business from 1 to 5 franchise sites. But with the success has come an annoying cost.
“My bank fees were adding up as I grew, and the more EFTPOS transactions we did, the more fees.” Harman says.
"The fees were getting to the point that it was difficult to absorb."

That’s when Harman found out about Smartpay Zero Cost™ EFTPOS.
Smartpay Zero Cost™ EFTPOS is a great solution for businesses that want to say ‘yes’ to cards, but ‘no’ to card transaction fees.
Rather than pay a fee per transaction like with most EFTPOS solutions, Smartpay Zero Cost™ EFTPOS automatically calculates and adds a small surcharge for your customer to pay.

Switching to Smartpay Zero Cost™ EFTPOS is an easy call
"A rep came to see me and explained how Smartpay Zero Cost™ EFTPOS worked. I was immediately interested in the savings and the simplicity of their solution.” says Harman. I estimated since switching we'd save around $3,000 per site. That's a total of $15,000 p.a."
To start with, Harman decided to trial Smartpay Zero Cost™ EFTPOS at a single site.
"I wanted to see how my customers responded. I probably did not need to worry."
"I have signs at the counter so all my customers know what they are being charged. They also see the surcharge on the terminal and it's on the receipt. My customers understand we are a small local business trying to reduce our overheads."
