The BBC reported that a number of the FTSE 250 company’s stores had been forced to close or to accept cash only.
Greggs issued a statement acknowledging the problem.
“We are currently experiencing issues accepting payments in our shops,” it said, reporting that efforts were underway to rectify the issue.
The incident came in the wake of similar card payment outages experienced by major retailers in recent days, including Sainsbury's, Tesco and McDonald's.
