The tool, called Tyl, will allow small businesses to accept Chip & PIN, contactless and telephony payments. The system also enables customer payments over the phone or online using a mobile terminal.
Additionally, Tyl provides next-day settlement ensuring cash flow for the businesses amid the pandemic.
In a bid to support the SMEs during the crisis, Tyl has also waived off terminal and 3G fees until the end of this year.
Besides streamlining transactions, the payment tool supports business growth by providing the SMEs with smart data-led insights.
