Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get free transactions as a tradie?+

With Payee’s No Cost EFTPOS, every card transaction automatically applies a small surcharge to the customer — so you pay $0 in merchant transaction fees. For tradies processing $10,000+/month, Payee also waives the terminal rental fee. You keep every dollar from every job. Note: the RBA has proposed banning surcharges on Eftpos, Mastercard and Visa from 1 July 2026.

Do the terminals work in areas without WiFi?+

Yes. All Payee tradie terminals include built-in 4G SIM connectivity. The SIM is included free. The VeriFone T650p also has dual built-in SIMs that automatically switch between networks for maximum coverage in rural, regional, and underground locations where a single carrier might not reach.

What is a Payment Link and how does it help tradies?+

A Payment Link is a secure, branded URL that you send to a customer via email or SMS. They click it and pay with any card or digital wallet. It’s perfect for: collecting deposits when quoting, sending progress payment reminders, and issuing final invoices without returning to the job site. Payment Links are included free with every Payee EFTPOS account.

A plumber or electrician averaging $25,000/month saves roughly $4,320+ per year compared to a standard 1.4% flat rate. A builder at $50,000/month saves over $8,640/year. The exact saving depends on your card mix and turnover. Call 1800 357 911 for a personalised savings estimate.
