Use case: Market Stall Trader
Take card payments without renting an EFTPOS terminal.
For car boot sales, market stalls, casual sellers, and one-off traders, monthly terminal fees rarely make sense. Mikes Diecast Collectables uses ScanPay and Stripe so buyers pay on their own phone while staff focus on the sale.
Market payments without terminal rental
A reusable printed QR code lets buyers pay on their own supported device. There is no outdoor terminal to rent, charge, secure, or share with staff.
Buyer enters the amount and reference
Mikes Diecast Collectables can use one payment page across different prices and negotiated sales. The buyer enters the agreed amount and a required payment reference before checkout.
Fixed $10 price with quantity
When every collectable costs $10, the buyer chooses the quantity and ScanPay calculates the total. Four items create a $40 payment with the sale reference attached.
Professional receipts after payment
Show a receipt webpage, send an email receipt, or provide both. Buyers can also download a PDF receipt for their records.
Live payment confirmation for market staff
Staff see the amount, payment reference, time, and paid status on a live dashboard. They can release the goods without handling cash or accessing Stripe or the business bank account.
Device alerts when sales land
Successful payments can trigger a high-priority notification with sound on a supported phone or tablet, helping busy traders notice payment immediately.
Custom market trader payment pages
Add a logo, description, payment button colour, custom reference label, receipt message, GST details, and seller terms for Mikes Diecast Collectables.
Frequently asked questions
Can I accept card payments without renting an EFTPOS terminal?
Yes. Display a printed ScanPay QR code at the stall. Buyers scan it and pay on their own phone using a supported card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.
Is ScanPay suitable for a one-off market or car boot sale?
Yes. A reusable payment page works for weekly markets, seasonal events, casual selling, and one-off sales days.
Do I need a traditional bank merchant account?
ScanPay merchants connect their own Stripe account. Stripe processes card transactions and pays funds to the bank account configured by the seller.
How does the payment reference help at a busy stall?
The reference appears with the successful transaction so staff can match the payment to the buyer and release the correct goods.
Can everything on the stall use the same $10 price?
Yes. Create a fixed $10 quantity page and let the buyer select the number of items. ScanPay calculates the total automatically.
Can staff confirm payments without handling money?
Yes. Staff can view successful payments, amounts, references, and paid status without accessing Stripe, online banking, or a cash float.
Where does the buyer payment go?
Payments are processed directly through the seller's connected Stripe merchant account. ScanPay does not collect or hold the buyer payment.
