Card machines and tills for food trucks and street food.
No mains power, no Wi-Fi, and a queue that arrives all at once. The kit has to work in a field.

What is a food truck EPOS?
A card machine that works where there's no Wi-Fi, with your full menu and modifiers and a battery that lasts a shift. For a pitch we fit a Shift4 One card machine with its own SIM card, which works on mobile data. Where you have Wi-Fi, Square Terminal or Square Handheld runs the same menu.
We set food trucks and market traders up on Square, in person across the East Midlands or remotely anywhere in the UK.
Give your pitch the edge.
Works in a field
For the pitch, a Shift4 One card machine with its own SIM card, which works on mobile data, with a battery that lasts the service. Where you have Wi-Fi, Square Terminal, Register and Handheld keep taking payments offline and upload them when the connection returns, within 24 hours to be safe. Contactless cards need a connection, phone wallets don't. Kit: Shift4 One (SIM card machine), Square Terminal.
Two in the hatch
A second reader for the peak, ringing into the same takings. Kit: Square Reader.
Pre-orders for events
Order-ahead links on your socials for festivals and markets. Kit: Square Online, Payment Links.
Every pitch reported
Sales by location and by day on the dashboard, takings in your bank the next day. Kit: Square Dashboard.
Why food trucks choose Atlas.
- Set up for where you trade, not a shop counterSignal, power and queue all planned before the first event.
- Fitted on site, not posted in a boxAcross the East Midlands we come out, place the kit and train whoever is on shift. Elsewhere in the UK we ship it configured and set it up with you on a call.
- One number afterwardsThe person who specced it is the person who answers. Not a ticket queue, not a call centre.
What we’d fit.
Works with what you already use.
We check the apps you already pay for before anything is ordered.
Food trucks questions, answered.
Does it need Wi-Fi?
Not on the pitch: we fit a Shift4 One card machine with its own SIM card, which works on mobile data. Where you do have Wi-Fi, Square Terminal, Register and Handheld keep taking payments offline and upload them when the connection returns, within 24 hours to be safe. Contactless cards need a connection, phone wallets don't.
How long does the battery last?
A full trading day for most traders. We'll tell you if your hours need a spare or a charger in the van.
Can I print receipts?
Yes. Square Terminal prints its own, and so does the Shift4 One we fit for pitches.
Can I take payment at two windows?
Yes. Add a second reader or handheld on the same account.
Can you set it up if I'm not in the East Midlands?
Yes. We build the menu, ship the kit configured and set it up with you on a video call.
Can I take bookings for private events?
Yes. Send an invoice or payment link for the deposit.
