    Hi, You need to speak to Merchant Services in your Bank. They set you up with a machine and generally there is a monthly rental charge. I am with Ulster Bank and I think I pay around €35 per Month. If you are looking to set up online payments you would need to go Realex, Paypal Etc. Hope this helps.

    What's wrong with direct bank transfers? I have a shop which also does online transactions and we don't find the need to use Paypal or anyone else.
