Hospitality providers get Smart this summer with Lolly’s ‘Rent a till’

Lolly Becomes Only UK Provider to Integrate EPoS and Payments Rental Services

The summer is peak trading season for many businesses and entrepreneurs. From festivals and fayres to exhibitions and concerts, the opportunities to reach new customers are endless. Many hospitality providers also maximize sales by using outdoor spaces for barbecues and pop-up stalls during the warmer months.

However, these opportunities present a challenge: small businesses must provide high levels of service while keeping overhead costs low.

The ‘Rent a Till’ Solution

To provide the flexibility needed for seasonal trading, Lolly has launched a ‘rent a till’ option through its Lolly EPoS offering. Available by the week, month, or season—including delivery and collection—it provides a hassle-free answer to boosting sales without a heavy upfront investment.

Lolly is currently the only UK provider to link EPoS and payments rental services directly, without the need for a third party. This allows hospitality providers to:

• Accept All Payments: Take card and contactless payments (including Apple Pay & Android Pay) even while on the move.
• Save Time: Benefit from automatic reconciliation of PoS and payments in a single action each day.

Engineered for the British Summer

The portable Lolly Smart till ensures that slow payments or overcharging never compromise customer service. Compact and lightweight, it features a touchscreen and software specifically designed for ease of use.

Outdoor events often mean relying on generators or long cables, which can be unreliable in changeable British weather. The Lolly Smart addresses these environmental challenges with:

• Seven-Hour Battery Life: Trading continues even if the main power source fails.
• Data Security: All transaction records are kept safe on a secure SD card.

Supporting the Pop-Up Economy

Peter Moore, CEO at Lolly, said:

“It’s a fact that people carry far less cash today, and the expectation is that even small businesses will offer card payments. However, without serious investment, this is not always possible—especially for pop-up style caterers.

At events like festivals, fast and efficient service is crucial. Consumers want speedy, practical payment methods so they can enjoy their food without wasting time. We have developed this rental option to support these businesses, helping them maximize sales and thrive in a competitive market.”
