💳 Slick Payments

You think you pay 0.5%. You actually pay a lot more.

Worldpay, Evo, Barclaycard, Dojo, Take Payments — they all do the same thing. Advertise a low rate, then pile on line rental, per-transaction fees, and tip charges that most salon owners never notice. Slick is one simple, flat rate. And for most salons doing £10k a month, it's cheaper — year after year.

Free card reader. Free setup. We'll even pay your exit fee.

What your card provider doesn't put on the tin

Worldpay, Evo, Barclaycard, Dojo, Take Payments — they all do it. A low headline rate, then a stack of extras that quietly drain your account every single year.

I thought I was on 0.4% when I did the maths, I realised I was actually paying closer to 0.9%! It shows you need to do your maths.

No catch. Seriously.

We know switching sounds like a faff. So we made it a non-decision.
