Cambridge is known for the colleges, the Backs and river punting. We set Teya card machines up for punt tours, market stalls, cafés, gift shops across King's Parade, the Market Square, Mill Lane and the rest of the Cambridgeshire visitor economy — and we handle the application for you.
A concentrated May-to-September visitor season, with Christmas market trade and a steady academic-year baseline.
Strong international and student mix, with wallet payments dominating small purchases.
The problem here
Riverside punt stations and Market Square stalls trade in the open with no wired line, and touting for trade means payments happen wherever the customer stops.
4G terminals and Tap to Pay on a phone mean staff can take payment at the riverbank, and Instant Settlements smooth a summer-loaded cash flow.
What Cambridge visitor businesses get
The same Teya setup we put into King's Parade and the Market Square, with the paperwork handled at our end.
