Worldpay's My Business Hub Levels the Playing Field for Small Businesses
LONDON, May 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Digital payment device will render manual cash registers obsoleteÂ
Worldpay, the UK's leading payments processor, has transformed the till as we know it
with today's unveiling of My Business Hub. This intuitive, all-in-one tablet-based till
will completely change the way small business owners collect and reconcile payments in
their shops. As a result, everyday transactions will be much simpler and less
time-consuming.

Replacing the till of old, My Business Hub consolidates existing cash registers,
payment devices and receipt printers into one fully integrated payment device. Fast and
intuitive to use, My Business Hub automates reconciliation of cash and card payments,
reducing the daily admin burden and leaving business owners with more time to concentrate
on growing their business. The all-in-one device will even enable small business owners to
take sales from anywhere in the store, something which has been beyond their reach until
now.
Dave Hobday, Managing Director of Worldpay UK, said: "Great technology should not be
the preserve of large companies. My Business Hub sits at the heart of our strategy to
provide small business owners with access to the tools and support they need to grow. My
Business Hub makes running a business easier, and the way we have designed the product
means it can evolve and flex to address the specific needs of small business owners. We
are challenging consumer perceptions of small businesses, enabling them to provide a more
personalised service and literally putting growth at their fingertips."
Operated with a detachable Android tablet, My Business Hub gives business owners the
freedom to take payments anywhere on their shop floor. This flexibility means staff can
spend more time helping and advising customers, enhancing the overall customer experience,
while also helping to reduce queues at busy times. The tablet also allows businesses to
use the device for other functions, whether that be ordering stock online or checking
emails and responding to customer enquiries.
Providing a holistic view of all transactions and trends, My Business Hub is also
fully integrated with My Business Dashboard, Worldpay's online insights tool for small
businesses giving full access to card transactions online. Hub users will be able to see
both cash and card transactions in their My Business Dashboard account, saving them time,
whilst also enabling them to track performance, view sales trends and gain valuable
insights about their business.
Worldpay customer Peter White, owner of Tilbury Tiles in Essex, has been using My
Business Hub since early 2016. He has found that the new technology has given his business
an edge when it comes to creating the right customer experience.
"The fact that it's all in one is perfect, it's really easy to use. It does away with
paperwork and being able to log in to the online account to get all of our records is
great.
"Providing a stress-free shopping experience is very important for our business,
especially when customers are paying for higher value orders which can often be over
GBP500. Most of our customers prefer to pay by card and My Business Hub helps give
customers that extra confidence."
Available at an accessible price for SMEs, getting up and running with My Business Hub
could not be easier. Simply unpack, plug in and download the My Business Hub app from the
Google Play Store to start taking transactions. The simple app gives business owners
instant access to the very latest technology from Worldpay and its network of partners
with automatic updates when new features and functions are added.
My Business Hub is currently available on a limited basis, with full roll-out coming
in Summer 2016. For more information on My Business Hub and to register interest visit:
