Using Paymentsense?
Overview of Paymentsense
Paymentsense has been a long-standing UK reseller of card acceptance services, often introduced through agent channels. Pricing models vary considerably depending on the agent and the package.
Because of this variability, Paymentsense accounts opened years ago can sit at very different rates to newer ones. A statement review confirms where yours sits today.
Common fees businesses should check
Often blended, sometimes with separate rates for premium cards.
Monthly hire on a separate agreement.

Start free reviewContract terms and considerations
- Merchant agreements commonly run multi-year terms.
- Terminal hire is usually a separate agreement that can outlast the merchant contract.
Exit fees and early termination
- Early termination fees may apply on either or both contracts.
- Where switching makes clear financial sense, some alternative providers may help with exit costs, subject to approval.
We never guarantee to pay your exit fees or that you can be released from a contract. Any support with exit costs is dependent on selected alternative providers, is subject to approval and is only considered when switching makes clear financial sense.
Common reasons businesses request a review
- Pricing has not been reviewed since onboarding.
- Statement contains line items the owner does not recognise.
- Renewal is approaching and the owner wants an independent benchmark.
Frequently asked questions
Will reviewing my Paymentsense statement contact Paymentsense?
No. We never contact your current provider without your written permission. The review is private and entirely for your information.
Do I have to leave Paymentsense after the review?
Not at all. Many reviews end with the business staying on a renegotiated rate, or with confirmation that the existing setup is reasonable. You are under no obligation to switch.
How long does a Paymentsense statement review take?
Most reviews are returned within a few working days once we have a recent monthly statement.
What does the review actually check?
Transaction rates, terminal rental, PCI fees, authorisation fees, monthly minimums, settlement timings, contract length, exit fees and any hidden extras specific to your account.
