A setup for events & venues
Event payment planning begins with the site: connectivity, power, temporary counters and the number of staff working at once. A setup tested during a quiet rehearsal is more useful than a generic capacity promise.
Map every service point, test connectivity and rehearse staff handover. Confirm temporary trading requirements, device arrangements and account approval before announcing a go-live date.

FAQ
Events & venues questions
Can you review temporary event counters?
Yes. Tell us the event dates, service points, connectivity and expected workflow. Availability and account arrangements must be agreed before quoting.
Are event payments guaranteed to work offline?
No. Do not assume offline acceptance. We review the specific setup and agree an appropriate contingency with you.
Can a venue use both card terminals and ePOS?
Yes, where appropriate. Shift4 One is the payment terminal; Shift4 Dine supports hospitality ordering. We recommend a configuration based on your service points.
