For merchants who want clarity.

Modular was built to help merchants make better decisions — not to sell terminals.

Our story

Why we built Modular.

After years working inside the payments industry, we saw the same problems surface again and again: confusing statements, hard-to-compare pricing, unsuitable hardware, weak support, and businesses left to make complex decisions without proper guidance.

Modular Consultancy was established in 2020 to give merchants a clearer, more commercially focused way to manage payments. We analyse your position, benchmark the market, explain the options clearly, manage the switch where it makes financial sense, and remain involved after deployment — when many consultancies have already stepped away.

Today we work primarily with multi-site hospitality and retail groups across the UK, with offices in London and Dubai.

How we work

Three principles that shape every engagement.

Principle 01
Audit
Statement-led

We don’t make recommendations without seeing the numbers. The audit comes first, every time.

Principle 02
Independence
Provider-neutral

We compare across the UK payments market, not just a favoured partner. Where staying put is right, we’ll say so.

Principle 03
Expertise
Pro-advice

All engagement is with director-level professionals. No handoffs to a junior account team.

03 / 04
Transparency

Independent advice. Transparent service.

We analyse your position, compare the market, explain the trade-offs, and stay involved. It costs you nothing.

Step 01 · The adviser
Modular
Independent

We benchmark your statement against the UK market and advise — not tied to any single provider.

Step 02 · You
You
£0

You choose a provider and deploy. Our advice and the audit cost you nothing — ever.

Step 03 · The partner
Payment partner
Fee

Our fee is paid by the payment partner and fully disclosed to you — like a mortgage broker.

Like a mortgage broker — our fees come from the payment partner, never from you.

In their words

and never looked back.
