Easy to use

The Shift4 card reader machine was given by Zamir at a very competitive rate. It was sent alongside step by step videos, making it beginner friendly and easy to use. There are no additional charges or monthly fees, making it perfect for my small business.

Amazing Machine and amazing person Zamir

We met Zamir from Shift4 at an event where we were using our mobile phone to take payments. Zamora showed us the shift4 machine and how easily it was to use and set up that we agreed to trial it. Zamir was very knowledgeable and polite and explained everything on detail. We have been using the machine for nearly an year and not had any issues at all

Would 100% recommend Zamir and Shift4

I had the pleasure of meeting Zamir from Shift4 at the Muslim Shopping Fest last month, and I couldn’t be happier with the support I’ve received since. He’s been genuinely helpful every step of the way – from getting my new card machine set up smoothly to taking the time to explain anything I wasn’t sure about.

What really stood out was how approachable and knowledgeable he is. He made the whole process feel simple and has helped me get the most out of my business with the new system in place.

Really appreciate all the support – highly recommend!

I have been out of contract with my terminal provider for over a year and have been inundated relentlessly with phone calls from terminal Providers.

Then, Donna happened to call into my garage whilst passing and introduced herself.

Donna talked me through the terminal prices and after sales services.

I am totally happy with the new terminal and the no pressure sales attitude from Donna.

Highly recommended.

Thank you Donna.

From the A6 Fast Fit Centre team.
