About Teya
Payments Built for Real Businesses
Teya is used by more than 75,000 businesses across the UK and Europe, rated "Excellent" on Trustpilot. It was built to give small and medium businesses the same quality of payment infrastructure that large enterprises have — without the complexity or the cost.
Published Rates From 1.59%
Teya's Membership Plan is £0 a month for monthly card turnover up to £7,500, with a rate from 1.59% on consumer cards. Higher-turnover businesses get a custom rate agreed directly with a Teya specialist.
Next-Day Settlement, 7 Days a Week
Card takings land in your account the next day — including weekends and bank holidays. There is no waiting several days for funds to clear.
Free Business Account & Cashback
Every plan includes a Teya Business Account with a debit card that earns unlimited 0.5% cashback, plus real-time sales tracking in the Teya app. No separate bank account is required.
Cash Advance Up to £500,000
Need working capital? Teya offers a cash advance against future card sales, repaid flexibly as a percentage of your ongoing takings rather than a fixed monthly amount.
Fast Onboarding, No Lock-In
Applications are typically verified within one to three business days. There are no long-term contracts and no setup fees, so switching in — or away — never means being trapped.
Pan-European Reach
Teya operates across the UK and Europe, making it a natural fit for hospitality groups and businesses with venues in multiple countries.
Teya Card Machines
Two Devices, Built for Different Counters
Both devices connect straight to your HDS Cloud Apps EPOS and are covered by the same rates, next-day settlement and Business Account.

A premium terminal for busy counters that need to keep moving all day — with a built-in printer so you are never waiting on a separate receipt station.
- 6.7" HD+ touchscreen
- 14+ hours of continuous battery life
- Built-in receipt printer
- Multi-carrier SIM included, so it works even if Wi-Fi drops

- 4G SIM and Wi-Fi included

Don't need a dedicated terminal? Teya also offers SoftPOS, which turns a compatible smartphone into a contactless card reader — useful as a backup device or for mobile and pop-up service.
