    What I love about this chip reader is that you can use it across several devices. I need to use it with my phone and also my tablet. It won’t work on both at the same time but that’s okay. It’s rasy to set up through Bluetooth and the app instantly tells you it’s ready to go. The battery life is long as well. Keep it in your pocket if you don’t have the charging doc and you won’t lose it. It charges via a mini usb cord which comes with it so don’t fear if you have only Apple products.

    This is easy to set up and use. Just slide the card in, wait a minute and Square even knows the customers email so you can send them a receipt on the spot. A little tricky to get out of the charger, put a little practice and it is easy.
