We covered swedish-based iZettle last year but they kind of got a little overpowered in the trade press in 2011 thanks to the amount of coverage journalists gave to a similar type of product – Square. Could that have had anything to do with the management personnel behind Square? Are we, in the trade press that shallow? Perish the thought!
However iZettle have a pretty good product and an easy-to-use solution, so we thought that we would do them a compliment and make this little video of theirs our first spotlight of 2012. We fully expect to see more of these mobile POS solutions appearing throughout 2012 – which we think is great news for small businesses everywhere!
At the moment Izettle does not support Visa which is a drawback. But apart from that the service and product is quite good. But if you are looking for another Square-like option which can provide flexibility in the UK, mPowa is highly recommended.
