    Very user friendly. Although square integrates with our fundraising supplier. Our older Scouts (ages 8-10) were able to use seamlessly. And it helped them to sell more product when they had the option to take cards.

    Loved the ease of ordering online from Best Buy and quickly picking up in store! The Item was available the day after I ordered since I ordered at night one store was closed-thank you for saving my pop up market sales! The device of course was easy to use and everything I expected.
