The SumUp Solo Card Payment Reader earns its place in a small business kit by feeling reassuringly simple: a cool, matte little card payment reader with its own screen, made for taking contactless payments at a market stall, salon chair or pop-up counter. There’s no scent or glossy fuss, just a neat portable card machine that sits well in the hand. The trade-off is that the screen can feel modest when a queue builds, but for United Kingdom sellers wanting tidy, card-ready checkout, it feels genuinely useful.
