St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands
Payment processing, POS, and terminals for duty-free retail, jewelers, restaurants & charters.
Caribbean Payments helps St. Thomas businesses accept every kind of payment — in person, online, and on the dock. From the duty-free shops of Charlotte Amalie to waterfront restaurants and day-sail charters, we deliver dependable payment processing built for the island’s cruise-driven, high-volume retail.
Who we serve
St. Thomas runs on visitors. As the site of Charlotte Amalie — the USVI capital and one of the busiest cruise ports in the Caribbean — the island welcomes wave after wave of shoppers looking for world-famous duty-free deals on Main Street and at Havensight, alongside jewelry, luxury goods, restaurants, and watersports. That kind of concentrated, seasonal traffic demands payment systems that never miss a sale. Caribbean Payments works with St. Thomas retailers, jewelers, restaurateurs, and charter operators to match them with the terminals, POS, and payment solutions that fit how they sell. And because the U.S. Virgin Islands is a U.S. territory that transacts in U.S. dollars, your card processing works just like the mainland — with a local Caribbean team behind it.
