    Purchased this in hopes of really using it until I found out that there are fees with using this device. So I just kept it just in case I really REALLY need it.

    I'll give it a higher rating as I conduct more transactions. This particular model offers both contactless and with an extension square, magnetic strip readers. I haven't had enough transactions to utilize all the features but what experience I have had, has been quite useful.

    Great for touching cards. Unfortunately, the small piece that came with it that plugs into the phone for use in scanning cards was the old one that doesn't fit the new phones EVEN THOUGH online it pictured the correct one.

    I swear this makes life so much easier with running a small business. I get that most people don't really carry cash anymore. This is so much better than the old dialup readers from when my mom did this.

    Nice option for small businesses that want inexpensive setup to take credit cards, the weighted base is also great to secure this reader on counter and prevent accidentally drops. Flat 3 percent and no monthly or hidden fees.
