Are You Overpaying for Card Payments?
Most funeral directors process large transactions — often £2,000 to £5,000+.
Even a small difference in rates can mean:
- Hundreds lost every month
- Thousands lost every year
We regularly help funeral homes reduce their costs by identifying:
- Hidden markups
- Unnecessary fees
- Outdated pricing structures

Are Saying
A reliable and supportive company to work with.
We serve families at some of the most difficult moments in their lives, so we need payment systems that just work. Paynetworx have been brilliant.
The local team are only ever a phone call away and always happy to help. It makes such a difference speaking to a UK-based support desk rather than being passed around.
We’ve never had any problems with our machine, and everything on our bill has been clearly explained. They even managed to save us money compared to our previous provider!
As an independent funeral director, reliability is essential to our business. Anthony and Paynetworx have provided a consistently professional service since day one.
The UK team are always available when needed, be it Anthony in North West as our representative, or the Head Office in Essex, and it is reassuring to know that the service desk is also based in the UK.
Our card terminal has been faultless, and all charges are clearly explained with complete transparency. They also reviewed our previous provider’s fees and successfully reduced our monthly costs.
We would not hesitate to recommend them.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Do funeral directors need bespoke card payment rates?
Yes. Because funeral transactions are high-value and lower in frequency than retail, standard retail processing rates often lead to higher costs for funeral businesses. Paynetworx structures pricing specifically for this transaction profile. |
Can funeral directors take card payments over the phone?
|
Yes, though phone (CNP) payments carry higher fraud risk and processing costs. We typically recommend our Virtual terminal, a secure Pay-by-Link email system as a safer, lower-cost alternative for remote or pre-arranged payments. |
Is there a contract for funeral director payment services?
Paynetworx offers rolling contracts with no long-term tie-in. Pricing is fixed within your agreement — we do not increase rates mid-term. |
Does Paynetworx cover funeral directors outside Lancashire?
Yes. While Anthony’s primary territory covers Lancashire, Greater Manchester, and surrounding areas, Paynetworx provides card payment solutions for funeral directors across the UK. |
How long does it take to get set up?
Up to 5 working days, it can depend on the paperwork provided by the merchant Anthony manages the process personally from application through to installation. |
