The Client
Clarion Events need no introduction. They are regarded as one of the world’s best event organisers, and host many of the leading shows in the industry. Established back in 1947, their shows see over 1,000,000+visitors pass through the doors each year. The UK office is conveniently based in the affluent SW6 area, and they also have offices in 12 other countries including Germany, Singapore and the USA. They host many of the UK’s leading consumer shows including The Baby Show, The Spirit of Christmas Fair & the Classic Motor Show. Clarion came on board with Wireless Terminal Solutions in early 2017.
The Challenge
Clarion Events needed a reliable, reputable card machine supplier for both their operation teams and exhibitors. Clarion had been actively recommended to Wireless Terminal Solutions from some of the exhibitors who had used the services of our short term payment facilities at the various events Clarion Host.
Clarion not only required contactless card machines to support the operation team during peak periods and eliminate any potential lengthy queues but also a card terminal that was reliable and efficient. It was also paramount to have a terminal supplier that had their own in-house technical support which was accessible at weekends where most of the events took place.
Why choose a GPRS credit card terminal?
Quite simply they are the card terminal of choice for the exhibition and festival circuit. Not only are they mobile, but you do not need costly Wi-Fi or Ethernet facilities to operate them. The card terminals are linked to the organiser’s or exhibitor’s merchant account before they are deployed and when they arrive with the customer the handsets are ready to go. With a battery life of up to 80hours and a base/charger included, businesses can rest in the knowledge that even if their stand doesn’t have an electrical point their card terminal will still work.
Can a credit card machine work abroad?
Wireless Terminal Solutions don’t just specialise in UK short term rentals on card machines. The last few years have seen many of our customers taking our credit card machines across the world and our hardware has been used in many countries including Germany, Italy, France and USA. If you are looking for a mobile card terminal for use abroad choosing our international sim will allow you to accept payments almost anywhere.
