How can we help?
Running a small or medium-sized business in Australia means constantly adapting. What you need from your EFTPOS solution in your first year looks very different from what you need once you’re expanding to new sites or streamlining multi-terminal operations. That’s why we’ve built this guide: to answer the most common EFTPOS questions businesses ask at each stage of their journey and to show how Tyro helps solve them.
From faster settlements to seamless POS integration, from cash flow support to easy switching, Tyro is built to make payments simple, reliable, and growth-ready. Our goal is to give you clear, practical advice so you can focus on what matters most: running and scaling your business.
No matter your size, payments are the heartbeat of your business. When they run smoothly, customers are happier, queues move faster, and cash flow stays consistent. When they don’t, even small issues can cost you time, sales, and opportunities to grow. Choosing the right EFTPOS partner isn’t just about today – it’s about setting yourself up for the next stage.
We’ve broken down the most common EFTPOS questions businesses ask about into three stages of the business lifecycle. Each section is designed to give you the insights, answers, and next steps relevant to where you are now:
As your business grows, even small transaction fees can add up quickly, affecting margins and profitability.
