What it is
myPOS Virtual Terminal MO/TO lets businesses take card payments by phone or email when a customer is remote. It works on a computer, phone, or tablet with an internet connection and requires no installation, complex integration, or additional software or hardware. Businesses can give employees specific access to accept payments, then track transactions in real time from any location using the myPOS Mobile app. The product page says completed payments settle immediately into the myPOS merchant account. Businesses apply through that account, and myPOS confirms eligibility for the service. The UK pricing page lists MO/TO payments at the online payment fee plus 0.5% per transaction. The plan has no monthly fee, but transaction fees apply, and the displayed tariff table is a concise summary linked to the full tariff breakdown. The product page says customer card information cannot be accessed after a transaction is complete. The UK pricing page lists 24/7 customer support as free.
