Local guide
Running a takeaway in Portsmouth
Takeaway demand in Portsmouth can follow the football calendar, major outdoor events and everyday working routines. Portsmouth F.C. play at Fratton Park, while Victorious Festival takes place on Southsea Seafront. The city's ferry port handles both passengers and cargo, adding another kind of journey to its trading mix. A takeaway may therefore be serving familiar collection customers alongside people fitting food around a match, an event or onward travel.
Those orders do not all start at the counter. Pay by Link lets you send a payment request for a phone order by text or email, while Teya Pro handles contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay when customers collect. Its built-in printer provides paper payment receipts. For a separate collection point within your service, Tap to Pay offers contactless payments on a phone through the Teya app.
Collections around a home match
On a Fratton Park home match day, customers may arrive for food with kick-off or their journey home in mind. Teya Pro gives your takeaway counter contactless, chip and PIN and mobile wallet payment options. Its built-in receipt printer provides a payment receipt for anyone who wants a paper record.
Phone orders before festival plans
Customers arranging their day around Victorious Festival on Southsea Seafront call your takeaway to place a collection order. Once you have confirmed the food and collection arrangements, send a Pay by Link request by text. You can check the transaction in the Teya app or portal before handling the collection.
Food before an onward journey
A customer heading towards Portsmouth's ferry port collects an order while another person is being served at the main counter. If you operate a separate collection point, Tap to Pay can accept contactless on an iPhone or Android phone. It uses the Teya app and needs no extra payment hardware.

Questions from Portsmouth takeaways
Can we take payment for phone orders before Fratton Park matches?
Yes. After agreeing the order and collection details, send a Pay by Link request by text or email. This separates payment from the collection-counter conversation on match days. Your takeaway can see the resulting transaction in the Teya app or portal.
What connectivity does Teya Pro offer a Southsea takeaway?
Teya Pro uses Wi-Fi with 4G fallback. For a Southsea takeaway planning its counter arrangements around ordinary evenings and Victorious Festival trade, that provides alternative connection methods. It also accepts contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay, with a built-in receipt printer.
