Minimum credit/debit card spend limit removed from EPOS tills

Monday, 07 March 2016

Dol.cHe Vita is one of several locations removing the £5 minimum spend limit.

Taking effect from Monday 7 March, EPOS tills used across the University will no longer require customers paying for goods by credit/debit card to spend a minimum of £5.  

The Finance department has negotiated a new deal for credit/debit card fees that significantly reduce the amount the University is charged for the processing of credit/debit card transactions. As a result of this, a customer minimum spend limit is no longer required. 

In addition, EPOS tills will now be able to accept payment using contactless credit/debit cards, which will help speed up the transaction process and reduce queuing at the tills.   

The changes apply to the following locations:

• Art Shop
• Cafe Libro
• Dol.cHe Vita
• Eat and Drink London Road
• Eat at Agriculture
• Eat at Enterprise
• Eat at Humss
• Eat at Northcourt
• Eat at SportsPark
