My story

Why I do what I do.

I set up Craig Ashcroft Payment Solutions with a simple vision: give businesses throughout the UK the customer service their business deserves, take away the hidden costs and fees buried in other providers’ contracts, and make taking payments seamless.

As an approved Dojo partner, I pair Dojo’s technology with something the big providers can’t offer: one person who knows your business. I come in, show you the machines and how they’ll be set up, give you honest, competitive pricing, and I’m on the end of the phone afterwards. If I miss your call, I ring straight back.

The details matter. At Livesey’s Butchers on Preston Market, that meant bright covers so card machines never go missing on a busy counter. At a football club, it meant colour-coding every machine and naming it by location in Dojo’s portal, so takings at the gate, the bar and the catering are tracked separately. And I don’t walk away from a business until I know we’ve explored every option to improve cashflow, customer service and clarity on costs.
