Virtual terminal and keyed payments
Take phone payments from your browser.
Use a virtual terminal to enter card details when the customer is not at your counter.
A virtual terminal lets authorized staff enter payments through a browser. We help you choose an option and understand how keyed payments differ from tapped cards.
Short answer
What is a virtual terminal?
A virtual terminal lets staff enter card payments in a supported web browser, often for orders taken by phone. It does not replace the need for a processor account. We help check your billing process and current setup, then explain suitable options alongside a free review of your processing statement.

Do I need a card machine?
Not for browser entry. You need a supported device, internet access and an account configured for keyed payments.
