    Purchased this to help with card payments at my festival locations. It doesn’t always work or stay connected to the iPad or phone. It’s just not reliable as I had hoped or the one I have is defective somehow.

    I like it and it works great. The thing that is a bother is that you have to use two separate pieces for cards with different security ordeals. It is just crazy to have to carry so many pieces. It should work as one piece.

      Thanks for the feedback regarding the magstripe reader for cards without chips. It makes sense how it can feel frustrating to carry two pieces in case customers don't have a chip card. You may want to consider looking at our Square Terminal that has both readers attached to it so it's less to carry. :) SquareAU
