It’s a really useful tool to have as a small business and I also really like that there is not a monthly subscription. > > **Cons**: It’s high in processing fees unfortunately I think that’s the same for all pos systems which is just something I have to deal with. > > It’s still a fantastic system to use and really straight forward\! I have started using the app too to help customers pay which has been great ----- ### "Easy way to take card payments" — 5.0/5 > **Cassandra** | *2 December 2024* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's easy to use. the app is straightforward and connecting the card machine is simple. If you have a new enough mobile phone, you don't even need the card machine as you can just use your phone for tap to pay. > > **Cons**: I don't really have any negatives. Of course everyone would want the fees to be less and the money to get to your account quicker but it does what I need it to do with no monthly fees or equipment rental etc. ----- ### "Love collecting points\!" — 4.0/5 > **Steph** | *1 July 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I enjoy collecting point for things I’m already buying\! > > **Cons**: I wish there was a way to get points from the app. Some stores machines aren’t always in service to get my points. ----- ### "Decent tbh" — 5.0/5 > **Billy** | *21 April 2025* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: \[sensitive content hidden\] was chill with me and helpful\! Its simplicity and ease of use. The setup process was quick, and the interface was very intuitive — even for team members who aren’t tech-savvy. I also appreciated the transparency in pricing and the lack of hidden fees, which made it easier to manage our small business finances. > > **Cons**: I found the transaction fees to be a bit on the higher side compared to some other options. For small businesses like myself with a high volume of low-cost transactions, those fees can add up quickly. ----- ### "Sum up user for life\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Chloe** | *27 February 2025* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Absolutely love sum up\! The layout of the app, the pay by phone method, the low fees, the payment links you can send out. I just love everything\! > > **Cons**: The only negative thing I’d say is it can sometimes be a little slow to connect when trying to charge a client or when trying to send over a payment link. > > Really get along with this app and it’s a staple in my business. My clients love it because it’s so easy and I equally love it. ----- Page: 1 / 60\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/358736/sumup-air?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/358736/sumup-air) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
