Local guide
Running a shop in Northampton
Northampton's retail geography combines a historic market with indoor centres and shopping streets. Market Square dates back to 1235 and connects to Abington Street, where the western section is pedestrianised. The Grosvenor Centre and Market Walk add indoor shopping in the town centre. For a retailer, that means customers may combine a market visit, browsing speciality shops and planned purchases rather than arrive for just a single transaction at your counter.
A shop may therefore need payments at a fixed counter as well as a portable option for stall trading. Teya Go can scan barcodes and connects through Wi-Fi or 4G. Teya Pro adds a built-in receipt printer for customers wanting a paper record of their purchase. Teya Lite is pocket-sized for moving around, while the Teya app and portal give owners a place to see sales and transactions and set up staff.
Purchases after market browsing
A shopper coming from Market Square selects several items in your shop before asking to pay by phone. Teya Pro accepts Apple Pay and Google Pay as well as contactless cards and chip and PIN. Its built-in printer lets you provide a paper receipt without switching to a separate receipt device.
Barcoded stock at the counter
For an Abington Street retailer selling barcoded goods, Teya Go provides barcode scanning in a compact card reader. It connects through Wi-Fi or 4G, giving you a machine suited to counter use without needing a printed-receipt feature. Choose Teya Pro instead where producing paper receipts is a priority for your shop.
Taking the shop to market
If your retail business also trades from a Market Square stall, a pocket-sized Teya Lite can travel with the stock. It has Wi-Fi and 4G and provides digital receipts rather than printouts. For occasional contactless trading, Tap to Pay offers another approach using the Teya app on an iPhone or Android phone.

Questions from Northampton retail shops
Which card machine suits a Northampton shop selling barcoded products?
Teya Go can scan barcodes and uses Wi-Fi or 4G. That makes it worth considering for an Abington Street shop with barcoded stock. If printed payment receipts matter more to your counter service, Teya Pro has a built-in receipt printer.
Can I use a portable machine for a Market Square retail stall?
Teya Lite is pocket-sized, with Wi-Fi and 4G, and supplies digital receipts. It suits a retailer moving between a shop and stall trading around Market Square. If you want to take contactless payments on your phone instead, Tap to Pay requires no extra hardware.
