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.
