When choosing between a mobile and a fixed payment terminal, 2 things matter:
1. How you use the terminal
Do you work at markets or trade fairs, visit customers, or have a terrace where you want customers to pay? Then choose a mobile terminal.
A fixed terminal stays in one place, such as a counter, and connects via power and internet cables.
2. How reliable your internet connection is
A fixed terminal offers a stable connection because it uses a wired internet link. For mobile, you can choose Wi-Fi and/or GPRS/SIM. Check your network coverage for GPRS. Use this coverage map to see which mobile providers have good coverage in your area.
