These come with different plugs. They make one that inserts in the microphone hole on your phone, and they make this one (it fits in my iPhone's charging slot). Theoretically you swipe the debit/credit card and the amount you charge goes into a holding place on Square, then they transfer the money to the bank account that you have linked to. You can do an "instant transfer" for an additional fee. Note - my experience is that the swiper never reads the cards. I always have to enter the card number manually which costs me more in processing fees

Hello. Yes, once you download the Square app to your mobile device and link your bank account, you can start using the reader. Take a look here: https://squ.re/3e4YERdb at our Square Magstripe Reader FAQ.
