Best card machine for jewellers

Independent jewellers, repairs and bespoke. Higher-value transactions, deposit-on-bespoke common, insurance-card scrutiny.

Our pick

Dojo Go

Acquirer: Dojo

Higher-value transactions need the strongest fraud-prevention and chargeback handling. Dojo's settlement and dispute support fit this trade better than no-contract acquirers.

Why this trade matters

Cashflow shape: Strong Q4 (Christmas) and Valentine's. Bespoke commissions stage across deposits.
Average transaction: £100 to £2000+
Contactless share: ~30% (high-value declines contactless)

Watch outs

Higher chargeback exposure on online sales.
Insurance-card declines for higher-value items need handling.
Deposit-on-bespoke requires card-on-file consent capture.

Alternatives

Stripe Reader S700 (online + in-store hybrid)
Worldpay terminals (legacy retailers)

Sign through us, get all of this

Take your trade. We do the rest.

Named UK account team for the life of the agreement. Acquirer pays our commission on completed introductions, so it costs you nothing on top.

24/7 dedicated support
Direct line to a named UK account manager, not a generic acquirer helpline. When your terminal goes down on a Saturday night you call us.
Quarterly rate reviews
As your card volume grows your rate should drop. We renegotiate against the 80+ UK acquirer panel every quarter, so you never overpay because you forgot to ask.
Chargeback and dispute help
UK chargebacks cost £15 to £35 per case and 60-80% are friendly fraud you can win with the right evidence. We draft the response and escalate where the acquirer drags its feet.
Switching support when you outgrow
If a better acquirer fit emerges as you grow we manage the cutover. No exit-fee surprises, no dual-running gap. Same account team across acquirers.
