Switching from Epos Now to Shift4

Compare the complete service, understand existing obligations and agree a carefully tested changeover with Essential Payments.

Nationwide — we cover the whole UK. Same-week setup for approved applications. Free hardware subject to eligibility and status; transaction fees apply.

Before changing your Epos Now setup

Map the ePOS software, hardware, payment provider and integrations in your current Epos Now setup. They may have separate terms, so review each contract and confirm the proposed replacements in writing.

This is a switching checklist, not a claim that Epos Now is unsuitable. Review your specific configuration and current terms. Essential Payments is an Official Shift4 Partner, not Epos Now or Shift4 itself.

    Compare actual transaction categories, hardware and software charges with your required setup.

  2. 02Agree a configuration

    Check Shift4 One terminals and, where needed, Shift4 Dine Workstation, menus and kitchen equipment. Verify connections and export options.

  3. 03Prepare and train

    Complete approval, network checks and team training. Same-week UK setup is for approved applications.

  4. 04Test, then change over

    Rehearse orders, receipts, reports and payment handling. Agree fallback and support contacts; no downtime guarantee is made.

FAQ

Switching from Epos Now: questions

Should I cancel Epos Now before applying?

No. Review your Epos Now agreements, notice and equipment terms first. Apply for the new arrangement and agree a tested changeover before ending any existing service.

Will switching from Epos Now save money?

That depends on your transaction mix, contracts and required setup. We compare a recent statement and complete service costs. We do not guarantee savings.

Can I keep my Epos Now hardware or data?

Compatibility and export options depend on your configuration and agreements. We check requirements before quoting; automatic transfer or hardware reuse is not assumed.
