Taking card payments in Ashford

Ashford has functioned as a market town since the Middle Ages, evolving into a major Kent transport hub connected by five rail lines, High Speed 1 and the M20 motorway. Today, commercial activity spans traditional high street retailers, the indoor County Square shopping centre, and high-footfall retail destinations like the Ashford Designer Outlet. Trade also thrives in surrounding commercial estates such as Eureka Park, alongside local venues serving commuters and visitors arriving via Ashford International railway station.
