Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about the Reader for Magstripe, particularly its ease of use and compatibility with devices like iPads. Many appreciate its overall performance, reasonable price, and compact size, which is convenient for business use. While the lightning connector is a plus for secure connections and the reader is generally fast, some users have noted issues with the instructions and the card reader's ability to read all cards.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    I purchased this to help with one of our on the go devices. The square has been picky of how it sits and when it will work. We have three others and they’re pretty good, haven’t had any issues that weren’t resolved “immediately.”

      Thanks so much for the review! It sounds like there may be trouble with the case on your phone that is keeping the reader from successfully connecting to the phone. You may want to try removing the case to see if you have better results. We are happy to hear that overall you are experiencing success, but if you have any trouble, you can always reach out to us for support: squ.re/contactsqsupport SquareAU
