When your till goes down on a Saturday night, you need one person who picks up the phone. Not a helpdesk. Not a different department. Me.
Andy Miller. Pub systems expert. 40 years in hospitality. One number.
Sound familiar?
A card machine rep walks into your pub. First thing you ask: "Does it integrate with my EPOS system?"
And that's exactly the problem.
You're not asking because you love your current till. You're asking because your entire business lives on it. Your menu, your staff, your sales data, your end-of-day. Switching feels like a risk you can't afford to take. So you switch the card machine, save a few quid a month, and sign an 18-month contract.
Six weeks later, the wifi drops. The till and the card machine stop talking to each other. You call the EPOS company. They tell you to call the card machine company. The card machine company tells you to call the EPOS company. It's Saturday night. Nobody's fixing anything.
This is the reality for around 70% of pubs and restaurants in the UK. Two separate systems, two separate providers, and you caught in the middle.
I built Credo FS to change that.

Forty years on your side
I'm not a card machine rep. I'm not a till salesman. I'm a hospitality operator who spent 20 years with Whitbread plc, ran my own pubs and restaurants, and got tired of watching good operators get a raw deal from people who didn't understand, or care about, how a pub actually works. I started Credo FS because the technology exists to make all of this simple. The problem was never the tech. It was the people selling it.

How it works
One system. One call. One person.
Most pub and restaurant owners are running two separate systems that are supposed to work together but often don't. I replace that with a single, fully integrated solution. Till, card processing, and connectivity, installed, supported, and managed by me.
You tell me what you've got, what's driving you mad, and what you actually need. No pitch. No pressure. Just a straight conversation, free, with no commitment.
I look at your EPOS, your card processing rates, your connectivity. I tell you honestly what's working, what isn't, and what it's costing you. Most businesses I review are overpaying by 20 to 40 percent on card processing alone.
Where possible, I implement systems where the card reader is physically integrated into the till. No separate machine, no wifi link to drop, no finger-pointing when something goes wrong. I work with providers I've used in my own businesses and trust completely.
This isn't a sale. It's an ongoing relationship. You get one number, mine, for everything. EPOS question? Call me. Card processing issue? Call me. Wifi down? Call me.
Three reasons people work with me
Three reasons people work with me.
Peace of mind
One system. One contact. One person who picks up the phone. You run your pub, I'll make sure the technology doesn't get in the way.
1 number
Save time
Integrated systems that talk to each other from day one. No end-of-day discrepancies. No hours lost chasing two providers.
0 finger-pointing
Save money
Most businesses I review are overpaying on card processing. I find where the money's going and I get it back. Then I make sure it stays that way.
20-0%
The root cause nobody talks about.
90% of EPOS and card machine issues come down to one thing: the wifi link between the two systems going down. Most providers ignore this because it's not their problem to fix. I solve it at the source. Where appropriate, I provide dedicated Starlink satellite connectivity as part of the managed solution, meaning the system that runs your business has its own reliable connection, completely separate from your venue's general wifi. No dropped connections. No Saturday night emergencies. No excuses.
Two ways in
Talk it through, or have a look at the kit?
Some people want a chat first. Others want to see what's out there. Either way, you end up talking to me.
Want an honest opinion?
I'll go through your setup with you, the till, the card machine, the broadband, the booking system, the lot, and tell you what I'd change and what I'd leave alone. It costs nothing and there's no contract.
Know what you're after?
Have a look at the systems I put in and the providers I work with. Integrated tills, card processing, bookings, broadband, and funding when it helps.
More than a till
More than a till
A properly set up pub system should do far more than take payments. The right EPOS platform connects every part of your business:
Customer loyalty programmes
Reward your regulars and bring them back.
Marketing tools
Communicate with your customers directly.
Bookings and reservations
Manage tables and appointments in one place.
Online ordering
Fully integrated with your in-venue EPOS, no duplication.
Invoicing
Supplier management built into your system.
Gift cards
Another revenue stream, set up properly from day one.
And where it helps, I can also connect you with:
- Free business bank accounts
- Merchant cash advance
- Flexi-loans
Everything through one conversation. Everything with someone who understands hospitality.
