Palmetto Processing

Service counters and repair shops

Payment terminals for auto shops — Clover and other counter hardware.

We install merchant accounts and payment terminals for auto shops, body shops, and service centers. Different hardware than a restaurant POS: compact counter terminals, handhelds for the drive, processing that handles shop tickets, parts, and fleet cards, and payment systems that integrate into the shop software you already run.

Shop terminals

Hardware for the service writer, not the dining room.

Auto shops, body shops, and service centers take cards at the counter. We set up the merchant account, install the terminal, and train whoever closes tickets — Clover when it fits, other terminals when it does not. Payment systems that plug into the shop software you already run, so you are not double-entering tickets.

  • Counter terminals for the service writer — tap, dip, and swipe without a full restaurant POS
  • Clover Compact, Mini, and Flex when the shop wants receipts, tips, and reporting in one device
  • Payment systems that integrate into the shop software you already run, so the card and the RO stay in one place
  • Other payment terminals when the account, fleet cards, or existing wiring call for them
  • Statement review and processing that matches shop volume, not a restaurant rate card
  • Install and training scheduled around the bay — not a box left at the parts counter
