    Needed this for allowing customers to pay at time of invoicing. Works great and I don’t have to wait for payments. Pays for itself.

    I purchased the chip-reading Square to be used for non-profit fundraisers. It's an easy way to accept credit cards; which we think increases bids for our auction items.

    The non-swipe reader is a little more difficult to use. I actually prefer and it's quicker to use the swipe reader.

    Great for contactless and cards with a chip

    The Square contactless chip reader works perfectly for cards with a chip or contactless payments. It can't read a card that needs swiped, therefore, an additional square reader is enclosed with this reader that plugs into your device (ipad or phone) via the headphone jack. The only problem with the "swipe" reader is that not all phones have a headphone jack on their phone anymore. I have an iPad11 Pro and it doesn't have a jack. I have a Samsung Note 20 and it doesn't have a jack. You would think Square would design this new reader to work with swiping cards as well. At my next craft show I won't be able to take anybody's cards that can only be swiped.

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for the feedback regarding the headphone jack on these readers. We will pass this feedback to our development team, but if you do run into anyone who does not have a chip in their card, you can always accept the credit card manually. https://squ.re/3bZhOYj SquareAU

    The Square kind of frightened me whenever I first thought of picking it up because I did not know how to use it but they have a very comprehensive tutorial which I was very thankful for.

    Purchase it to use with the square app to take chip payment, and love the mobility of it since it connects wireless to the device with Square POS installed.

    I started with just the little square but then realized all cards were changing to the chip and some were removing the magnetic strip and so now I am ready for the future.

    This was something I added for payments, so people could tap or use the chip instead of me having to take the clients card and swipe it.

    Easy to install and set-up. I loaded multiple Square readers to multiple phones so our employees can just grab what is available. The app doesn't always recognize a reader as available and it needs to be re-linked. It's a bit frustrating, hoping that we can figure out how to make this work seamlessly.
