Credit & debit cards

Discounted credit & debit card processing for Bed Posts members

Accept cards

BedPosts and Accept Cards Ltd work together to provide members with preferential rates for taking payments by Credit/Debit Card and comprehensive advice on all areas of card processing.

The new 2014 schemes are even more favourable to BedPosts members.

The latest figures for UK credit/debit card spending are from 2012. In that year consumers made 10.27bn credit/debit card transactions totalling £501bn.

The potential to reach new customers and make the most of existing ones by offering choice and flexibility on transactions has never been more important.

Don't yet take credit/debit cards? Here are some arguments for doing so:

* Most people expect them to be accepted
* You'll lose less on no-shows
* Easier to take deposits from foreign guests
