Local guide

Running a café or coffee shop in Derby

Derby's café trade can serve very different routines: the University of Derby has its main campus on Kedleston Road, while the Museum of Making draws visitors to Derby Silk Mill. The museum explores the city's industrial heritage, including railways and aero engines. A café serving students has a different daily pattern from one catering for museum visitors, with drinks between commitments at one and more leisurely stops at the other.

Small purchases at the counter need a straightforward choice of payment methods, while seated customers may prefer paying without returning to the till. Teya Pro accepts contactless cards, chip and PIN and mobile wallets, and prints receipts. Teya Lite offers a smaller machine with digital receipts for moving between tables. For a café taking advance orders by phone, Pay by Link can collect payment through a text or email link before the customer visits.

Coffee between campus commitments

At a café serving customers from Kedleston Road, students stop for drinks between commitments at the University of Derby. Teya Pro supports contactless, Apple Pay and Google Pay, as well as chip and PIN. Keep it at the counter for individual purchases, with its built-in printer available when a customer needs a paper receipt.

A museum visit coffee stop

Visitors to the Museum of Making settle into your café for drinks and something to eat before continuing their day. When a seated customer asks to pay, Teya Lite can travel to the table in your pocket. It uses Wi-Fi and 4G and provides digital receipts, without a printer to carry around.

An extra contactless payment point

If your café serving Kedleston Road has customers ready to pay while the main counter is occupied, Tap to Pay provides another way to take contactless payments. Use the Teya app on an iPhone or Android phone without extra hardware. It is an option for taking those payments away from your usual card machine.

Questions from Derby cafés & coffee shops

Which Teya machine suits a small café counter near Kedleston Road?

Teya Lite is the smaller, pocket-sized option and provides digital receipts rather than printed ones. Teya Pro is worth considering if customers visiting your Kedleston Road café need paper receipts. Pro also accepts contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Can my café take payment for a phone order before collection?

Yes. With Pay by Link, you can text or email a payment link for a phone order. For example, a customer planning a stop before visiting the Museum of Making could pay for an agreed order before coming to your café.

Do you set up cafés & coffee shops in the Cathedral Quarter, Sadler Gate and Allestree?

Yes. We quote for cafés & coffee shops anywhere in Derby, including the Cathedral Quarter, Sadler Gate and Allestree, and across Derbyshire. Each quote is bespoke, based on your monthly card turnover.

I run a café or coffee shop near Derby, in Belper. Can you help?

Yes. We also help cafés & coffee shops in nearby places such as Belper, Ilkeston and Long Eaton. If you have more than one site, tell us about each one and we'll quote for the whole group.

Is Teya worth it for low-value sales?

Teya builds rates around your average transaction and volume. Send us a statement and we'll show you the comparison.

Is there a fee if I'm quiet?

On Teya's Start plan a £29.99 monthly fee applies when card turnover is under £2,500. We'll check which plan suits you.

How quickly can I start?

Once Teya approves your application, it sends your machine and we help you get set up. We'll talk you through the steps when you enquire.
