I'm thinking of accepting credit cards in my high street business. Due to the nature of the business and it's "third world" location, most of the payments will probably be under £15 and 100% will be face to face. I'd also prefer a wireless terminal.

I went through the whole Barclaycard application only to be told at the end that the minimum payment I could accept would be £20.

Can anybody suggest a decent CC merchant that would meet my requirements?

Cardnet (Lloyds)

They tailor their prices based on the volume and value of transactions. I think it's a flat fee for debit cards and a percentage for credit cards.

We use Streamline and haven't had any problems.

Streamline is fine, we have two machines one wired and one wireless. I would recommend FSB membership to reduce the merchant/handling charges too.
