Local guide
Running a takeaway in Swansea
Takeaway demand in Swansea can come from university life and coastal days out, not just the city centre evening trade. Swansea University's Bay Campus is in Jersey Marine. Across the Gower Peninsula, Langland Bay, Caswell Bay and Llangennith attract surfers, while the coastal path runs from Mumbles Head towards Rhossili. For a takeaway serving these customers, orders may be planned around study, travel or getting something to eat after time outdoors.
That creates a mix of phone orders, walk-in purchases and collections where payment may happen before or at the handover. Pay by Link lets you send a phone-order payment request by text or email. At the counter, Teya Pro accepts contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and prints receipts. Tap to Pay provides contactless acceptance on an iPhone or Android phone with the Teya app, without extra hardware.
A campus group orders ahead
Students near the Bay Campus in Jersey Marine phone through a shared takeaway order for collection. Send the organiser a Pay by Link request by text or email so payment can be made before arrival. Staff can view the transaction in the Teya app and portal when checking payments for phone orders.
Food after a surfing trip
Customers returning from surfing at Caswell Bay stop to collect food and want to pay with a phone. Teya Pro accepts Apple Pay and Google Pay, alongside contactless cards and chip and PIN. Its built-in printer lets staff provide a receipt with the order when the customer asks for one.
Contactless at the collection point
A takeaway serving people returning from Rhossili has a customer ready to pay at its collection point rather than the main counter. Tap to Pay lets staff accept contactless through the Teya app on an iPhone or Android phone. It provides a phone-based payment option without adding another piece of hardware.

Questions from Swansea takeaways
Can we take payment for phone orders near the Bay Campus?

What suits a Gower takeaway wanting paper receipts?
