Running a shop in Birmingham
Retail in Birmingham includes specialist purchases as well as everyday shopping. The Jewellery Quarter continues a manufacturing trade first recorded in the city in the medieval period, and Birmingham's continuing jewellery trade earned it World Craft City recognition. The Mailbox caters for more affluent customers, adding a different retail setting. For an independent retailer, these contexts make considered purchases, detailed customer conversations and the handover of finished goods important parts of trading.
A customer choosing a finished piece at the counter has different payment needs from someone placing an order for later collection. Teya Pro handles contactless, chip and PIN and mobile wallets, with printed receipts for the handover. Pay by Link can be sent by text or email for deposits. Teya Go can scan barcodes, while the Teya app and portal let you see the sales and transactions recorded through your payment tools.
A workshop order deposit
A customer discussing a piece with a Jewellery Quarter retailer decides to place an order after leaving the shop. Send a deposit link by text or email using Pay by Link. That gives them a way to pay remotely, while you can view the transaction in the Teya app or portal.
Presenting a finished purchase
At a shop in The Mailbox, a customer is ready to pay after examining a purchase with a member of staff. Teya Pro supports chip and PIN, contactless and mobile wallets. Its built-in receipt printer provides a paper record to hand over with the goods at the end of the sale.
Scanning at the shop counter
A Jewellery Quarter shop selling barcoded accessories alongside specialist pieces can consider Teya Go for the counter. The compact reader can scan barcodes and connects over Wi-Fi or 4G.

Questions from Birmingham retail shops
Can my Jewellery Quarter shop take a deposit remotely?
Pay by Link lets you send a payment link by text, email or QR code for deposits. This suits a Jewellery Quarter order confirmed after the customer leaves. You can see transactions in the Teya app and portal when checking your payment records.
Which Teya machine can scan barcodes in my Birmingham shop?
Teya Go can scan barcodes and uses Wi-Fi or 4G. It is worth considering for barcoded goods at a Birmingham retail counter. If your priority is handing over paper receipts with purchases, Teya Pro has a built-in receipt printer.
