Card machines for restaurants in Belfast
We set up Teya card machines for restaurants in the Cathedral Quarter, Botanic Avenue, Lisburn Road and across Northern Ireland, with a bespoke quotation based on your card turnover and a real person to call.
Cathedral Quarter bars run heavy weekend footfall with plenty of outdoor service, which needs terminals that hold signal away from the till.

Local guide
Running a restaurant in Belfast
Restaurant trading in Belfast brings together neighbourhood dining and visitors building meals around sightseeing. Botanic Avenue has an established dining stretch, while the Titanic Quarter includes Titanic Belfast as a major visitor attraction. The port welcomed 153 cruise calls in 2023, landing 320,000 passengers. For a restaurant, that mix can mean serving regular diners alongside groups fitting lunch or dinner around a wider itinerary.
Those different dining plans call for payments at the table, clear ways to divide a meal and deposits taken before guests arrive. Teya Pro supports Split Bill, either evenly or by custom amounts, plus on-screen tipping and printed receipts. A pocket-sized Teya Lite suits moving between tables if digital receipts work for your service. Pay by Link lets you send a booking deposit request by text or email.
Lunch after Titanic Belfast
A group finishes visiting Titanic Belfast and sits down for lunch before continuing its itinerary. When diners want to pay different shares, Teya Pro supports custom amounts through Split Bill. Staff can bring the machine to the table, accept contactless or chip and PIN, and print receipts using its built-in printer.
Evening tables on Botanic Avenue
At a Botanic Avenue restaurant, several tables may finish their meals while other guests are still ordering. A pocket-sized Teya Lite lets staff take payments around the dining room rather than asking diners to visit the counter. It has Wi-Fi and 4G connectivity, with digital receipts instead of a printer.
A booking before the cruise
Visitors planning a Belfast meal around a cruise arrival may want their table arranged before travelling. If your restaurant takes booking deposits, Pay by Link lets you send the payment request by email or text. Guests can pay through that link, while you can view sales and transactions in the Teya app and portal.

Questions from Belfast restaurants

Which machine suits table service on Botanic Avenue?
Teya Lite is pocket-sized for moving between tables and provides digital receipts. Choose Teya Pro if your Botanic Avenue restaurant needs printed receipts, on-screen tipping or Split Bill. Pro also has Wi-Fi with 4G fallback for taking payments away from the counter.
Do you set up restaurants in the Cathedral Quarter, Botanic Avenue and Lisburn Road?
Yes. We quote for restaurants anywhere in Belfast, including the Cathedral Quarter, Botanic Avenue and Lisburn Road, and across Northern Ireland. Each quote is bespoke, based on your monthly card turnover.
I run a restaurant near Belfast, in Lisburn. Can you help?
Yes. We also help restaurants in nearby places such as Lisburn, Carrickfergus and Newtownards. If you have more than one site, tell us about each one and we'll quote for the whole group.
Can diners split the bill at the table?
Yes — Teya Pro handles split bills and tips on screen, so staff don't need to walk back to the till.
Does Teya work with my restaurant EPOS?
EPOS compatibility depends on your system and version, so we check it before you apply. Tell us which one you use.
How fast are payouts?
Teya settles card takings the next working day as standard, and qualifying businesses can choose everyday or Instant Settlement options, with conditions and in some cases an extra charge.
