Epos Now is moving towards a more integrated model, with payments routed through its own solution, supported by Adyen.
This goes beyond technology. It affects commercial control.
When EPOS and acquiring are bundled together, comparing providers or renegotiating pricing becomes less straightforward. That matters, particularly for businesses processing higher volumes.
One hospitality operator we reviewed had been using Epos Now for several years. With limited visibility on their acquiring terms, pricing had gradually drifted.
A full review showed clear scope for improvement. By moving to a different EPOS provider and resetting the acquiring structure, they achieved more competitive rates and clearer cost transparency.
These situations are becoming more common as providers tighten integrations.
The key point is simple: structure influences cost.
BB Merchant Services works with finance teams to assess current arrangements, isolate margins, and ensure pricing remains in line with the wider market.
