We're experiencing issues with our Zettle 2 card reader. I has begun to process transactions so slowly that it is irritating to both us and our customers! Connections are all fine, but when the payment is being processed it lags and takes up to a minute to decide if the payment has transacted correctly. As you can imagine these 60 seconds are a lifetime in the real world of card transactions - customers are beginning to walk away with their goods before the transaction has gone through! We have lost payments due to the machine processing so slowly and deciding after the event that the transaction didn't actually process! This began happening a few months ago when we were experiencing wifi issues and using the app on an old mobile deivce. Since then, however I have changed wifi provider AND set up the app on a brand new Samsung tablet. This seemed to correct the issues for a while. BUT it has begun happening again and is not ideal! Any ideas why this is happening and what troubleshooting steps I can take to correct the issues? ... View more

UPDATE! I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY APPLIED FOR A NEW PWC LOAN TODAY! 😄 was just undergoing my usual daily log in to check the status ( which used to say I was not eligible) but this time it allowed me to apply! no idea what changed and why, there were no emails or anything to suggest it was available again to me, was just on the off chance that I logged into the dashboard did not quite get the amount I would have expected given my sales over the past 12months, but it wasn't measly either so... LOG IN TO YOUR DASHBOARDS AND CHECK as it seems to have been fixed! (or at least they are rolling out a fix?!!) hoorah! ... View more

I am yet to see the real time payment rather than next day transfer (maybe a UK thing?) but real time payment should override the algorithm eventually as that is the reason Paypal gave me for not accepting the daily transfers - they need to 'see the individual transactions' apparently (why they cannot see them in Zettle since they are the 'same' company now who knows?)  still holding out hope they will change this soon! ...

Well, there must be numerous people in this situation - Zettle have now updated their side to announce they no longer offer the cash advance. I don't understand why it is so difficult for Paypal to recognise the Zettle income to a business? Surely its a case of monitoring the deposits and understanding that it's the same income they originally measured the cash advance eligibility against? Why are they taking so long to resolve it?! surely its in their best interests as the loans aren't exactly the cheapest option! as for going back the the Paypal Here device - that tech is so antiquated! I don't trust it to take payments anymore (which is why they introduced the Zettle machine no doubt!) Have you had any further progress with the issue at all? ... View more

In my experience, the money goes into your Zettle account first from which you set it up to transfer to Paypal (or your bank account) if you so choose (they are not one and the same accounts as you may have been led to believe!) ... View more

Wondering if anyone else has come across and resolved issues with being granted eligibility for Paypal Working Capital since moving to a Zettle card reader? I've been with Paypal for over 10 years, increasing revenue YoY and had several WC agreements (all paid off early) Was encouraged last year to change card reader to 'new partners' Zettle and, since the Paypal Here reader was shockingly bad, I jumped at the chance. All transactions have been going through Paypal via Zettle but have been 'ineligible' for WC ever since I repaid my last loan in January 2022 After being thrown from pillar to post trying to work out why I was no longer eligible, (Zettle telling me it's a Paypal issue and vice versa) I finally discovered that for some reason, the income via Zettle is no longer recorded in the algorithm when working out eligibility - Paypal could see exactly how much was coming into the account but for reasons unexplained cannot use that (very same) income any more??! Wondering if anyone else has come across this issue and found a workaround? Not all my income is from my card reader but the majority is - I tried changing the transfer from weekly to daily to show consistent daily income but I am told that without the individual transactions (i.e. the quantity) being recorded on Paypal they can't count the income? I was under the impression Zettle & Paypal were one and the same, was certainly made to believe that when I was encouraged to change card reader last year..... now I feel penalised for doing so. The WC loan has been a lifeline in the past and always counted on it when needed, now I can't fall back on it I am seriously considering leaving Paypal behind me! ... View more
