About East Anglia Business Solutions.
We work for you, not the card company.
We’re not a bank.
We’re not a faceless payments firm.
We’re a small business, just like you.
After years of running pubs and shops, we got fed up with overpriced card machines, pushy sales pitches, and helplines that never helped.
So, we built the thing we wish we’d had. Someone who picks up the phone, tells you the truth, and is happy to look everywhere for the best deal.
What you won’t get from us. Jargon, pressure, or a solution that suits someone else.
What you will get. Straight answers, proper support, and a deal that fits your business.

Client Testimonials
‘Since first setting up with Carl over 5 years ago, he has continually reviewed our merchant services on a regular basis, so much so that, our small business is saving 80% when compared to what we were paying with Worldpay 5 years ago! All without any initial extra costs/cancellation fees and no disruption.’
East Anglian Business Solutions have helped us with our card payments across two businesses, helping to improve our cash flow with quicker settlements as well as much lower rates to save around 40% on what we were paying previously. They have also assisted with business funding to enable investments in the businesses.

‘We recently had a new EPOS system at one of our pubs and changed card machines in both. Nothing was too much trouble for Carl who has saved us quite a bit of money. He still calls in from time to time to make sure we are alright. Thoroughly recommend his services.’
