Good solution for Square
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been a Square user for about 2 years and like the service. Previous hardware by the company has not be reliable other than the original Magstripe reader used in headphone jacks. I'm excited to see they have offered a Lightning version rather than using a headphone adapter with the old reader.

Do your research
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is quick and easy to use, but if you run into any difficulties or account questions, it’s impossible to get a human on the phone. I’m still awaiting responses to multiple phone calls and emails regarding important account information.”going on 7 months of trying to communicate and get some guidance.” Do your research and definitely look into other options that offer small businesses the support they need.

Best Buy saved the day!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am so happy that we were able To purchase this in store in the city where our event was. Saved the day because we couldn’t find my other card reader and wouldn’t have been able to take credit card payments if it wasn’t for Best Buy having this in stock! Only downside is I do wish there were more instructions for new users to thos brand.
