Card machines for restaurants in Manchester
We set up Teya card machines for restaurants in the Northern Quarter, Ancoats, Chorlton and across Greater Manchester, with a bespoke quotation based on your card turnover and a real person to call.
Manchester's food halls and street-food yards trade almost entirely cashless, which puts a premium on 4G fallback when Wi-Fi gets congested.

Running a restaurant in Manchester
Running a restaurant in Manchester can mean serving neighbourhood diners in Ancoats alongside visitors planning an evening around Bridgewater Hall. The hall has 2,500 seats, giving the city a substantial classical music audience as well as its better-known pop crowds. For a dining room, that creates different rhythms: leisurely meals from nearby residents and bookings where guests want to finish before a performance begins.
Those patterns call for payments at the table, clear ways to divide a group bill and a separate route for booking deposits. Teya Pro supports Split Bill, either evenly or by custom amounts, plus tipping on screen and printed receipts. Pay by Link lets you send a deposit request by text or email. For Manchester dining rooms with payments away from the counter, Teya Lite is pocket-sized and provides digital receipts.
Before the hall performance
Guests dining before a Bridgewater Hall performance may ask to settle while others are still finishing. Take Teya Pro to the table and use Split Bill to divide the total evenly or by custom amounts. Its built-in printer provides receipts there, rather than sending each guest back to the restaurant counter.
Ancoats group booking deposits
A restaurant in Ancoats arranging a group meal can collect a deposit before the guests arrive. Send a Teya Pay by Link request by text or email once the booking details are agreed. Payment can then happen separately from the dining room service, without requiring the organiser to visit in person.
Payments across the dining room
During an evening service in Manchester, different tables may want to pay at different stages of their meal. Pocket-sized Teya Lite can move around the room and provides digital receipts rather than printed slips. Where a printed receipt or on-screen tip is wanted, Teya Pro provides those options at the table.

Questions from Manchester restaurants
Can we split bills for groups dining before Bridgewater Hall performances?
Yes. Teya Pro supports Split Bill, with an even split or custom amounts. That suits a Manchester restaurant serving groups who want to pay their own share before a performance. The machine also has a built-in receipt printer and supports tipping on screen.
How can our Ancoats restaurant take booking deposits remotely?
Use Pay by Link to send the organiser a payment link by text or email, or provide a QR code. It supports deposits and bookings, so an Ancoats restaurant can request payment without asking the customer to come into the dining room beforehand.
Do you set up restaurants in the Northern Quarter, Ancoats and Chorlton?
Yes. We quote for restaurants anywhere in Manchester, including the Northern Quarter, Ancoats and Chorlton, and across Greater Manchester. Each quote is bespoke, based on your monthly card turnover.
I run a restaurant near Manchester, in Salford. Can you help?
Yes. We also help restaurants in nearby places such as Salford, Sale and Ashton-under-Lyne. 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.
