Tap to Pay on your phone
Take contactless payments with just your phone, on iPhone and Android.
For your business: A handy back-up if a machine is charging, or a way to start taking cards with no extra hardware.
The Teya range
Teya card machines, side by side
Teya's Summer 2026 release brought a new Teya Pro and the pocket-sized Teya Lite, alongside the slim Teya Go. Here's what Teya publishes about each one, who it suits, and the rest of the Teya catalogue around it.
We don't publish hardware prices or rates. Your quotation covers the machines and plan that suit your business.
Which one suits you?
Customers often want a paper receipt?
Teya Pro — the only one with a built-in printer.
Short on counter space, or always on the move?
Teya Lite — Teya's most compact machine.
Need a phone-sized device with a scanner?
Teya Go — card reader and scanner in one.
Many businesses mix them — a Pro at the counter and a Lite for the floor, for example. Try the setup finder or call us and we'll suggest a mix.

No machine at all? Tap to Pay
Teya's Tap to Pay turns an iPhone or Android phone into a contactless card reader. It's a handy back-up when a machine is charging, or a way to start with very low card volumes.
Contactless only, on a supported phone. We'll tell you if it's enough on its own.
More than a card machine
