    Intergrated seemlessly with my exsisting set up. Took 2 minutes to get connected, worked great all night. It was great my local BB had these in stock - I was in a pinch and needed a new one for a 500 person event.

    Genuinely very surprised at just how easy this was to set up. Connected to our Android phone easily, we downloaded the Square app, and were up and running. The app is actually surprisingly good as well. Could not be more happy with this!

    This is so much better than the card reader that you insert into your phone and faster. I don't know why I didn't purchase this reader sooner. Its great to have when I do pop up markets, quick and easy check out for me and my customers.
