Card Machines

Card machines that keep service moving.

Shift4 One works as a standalone terminal for straightforward payment acceptance. Paired with the till it becomes Shift4 Duo — taking orders and payment at the table, in the queue, or at the counter, with a built-in printer.

Where the handheld earns its keep

A card machine should do more than take the payment at the end. This one carries the whole transaction.

At the table

Take the order and the payment in one visit. Tips, split bills and receipts are handled at the table — no walking the card to the counter, no queue at the till.

In the queue

When the line reaches the door, a handheld turns one till into two. Orders go straight to the kitchen or bar while the counter keeps serving.

Receipts, sorted

Built-in printer for paper receipts, email receipts for customers who prefer them, or neither — chosen on screen at the point of payment.

Tabs & pre-auth

Open a tab with a pre-authorised card and stop chasing walkouts. Close it with tips and splits handled properly at the end of the night.

Paired with the till: Shift4 Duo

Not a terminal bolted onto a till — one system carrying both.

Shift4 Duo handheld card machine paired with the Workstation POS

Linked to the POS as Shift4 Duo, the terminal runs the same order screen as the Workstation. Staff can browse the menu, take the order, send it to the kitchen and take payment — all on the device in their hand, all landing in the same reporting.

That is the practical difference between an integrated platform and a card reader with a till app: no double-keying, no mismatched totals at close, and one support team when something needs sorting.

Frequently asked questions

Shift4 pricing is set for your business rather than published as a headline rate — which is exactly why we start with a review of your current bill. You see the full cost side by side with what you pay today, before you commit to anything. No headline-rate games, no surprise lines on the statement — and no PCI compliance fees, minimum monthly service charges, or authorisation fees on the bill either.

Yes — that's exactly what Shift4 One is. A standalone terminal for businesses that need excellent payment acceptance without a till system: boutiques, salons, dealerships, pharmacies, and most of the high street. Tips, refunds, fast-payment buttons and email or printed receipts, with no upfront cost on the first terminal. If your trade would benefit from the full platform, the review will say so honestly — and if it wouldn't, it will say that too.

The terminal runs dual connectivity, and the POS side works over Wi-Fi or wired LAN. What suits your building is confirmed as part of the review rather than promised one-size-fits-all here.

Support is 24/7 by phone, email or live chat, and device replacements are free for the life of the service — a broken terminal is an inconvenience, not an invoice. EHNT stays locally reachable on top of that.

Payments run on Shift4, a global payments technology company that processes for businesses worldwide. Card data is handled by Shift4 as the payment provider — it never sits with EHNT.
