vs Zettle

A Zettle alternative built for a busy floor

PayPal Zettle is a great card reader. But once you're running tables, a kitchen and staff, you need a proper till behind it. brasio is that till — a full EPOS at one flat monthly price — and you can keep using Zettle or SumUp to take the card.

Why teams switch from Zettle

A real floor, not just a checkout

Table plans, tabs, course pacing and kitchen screens — the tools a card-reader app was never built to give you.

One flat price

£35 + VAT a month, per venue, everything included. No weighing up whether each feature is worth another add-on — they all come in.

Keep taking card your way

brasio doesn't tie you to a processor. Keep your Zettle or SumUp reader and your own rates; brasio just records the sale.

Considering a switch?

Keep the card reader you like. Put a proper till behind it.
