Customers are saying

Customers commend the Reader for Magstripe's ease of use, affordability, and compatibility with various devices. Positive feedback also highlights its compact size and straightforward setup process. While some users mention higher than expected fees, the device's performance is generally well-received. A notable limitation is the lack of a chip reader in some models.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    The square is a great option if you are needing to take cards. I use this for a personal business as well as a few non profit this we do. It is easy to use and a great tool to have.

    Square for small business

    I have been using square since Flint went under. I have not had any declined transactions, money hits my account next business day. Have not had any problems. Swipe at 2.75%. If you are doing less than $3k a month, then square is more economical than full blown merchant account. If over this, then merchant account will save you more money in long run, but have to deal with all the crazy extra fees....PCI, 1099k, early term, monthly minimums, and the list goes on and on.....

    Square card readers are free when you first sign up for cc processing. But for a guy like me who easily loses things, knowing I can grab another one at BBY for only $10 comes in handy

    Works as advertised and you get the $10 credit for not ordering through heir site. Essentially is allows you to pick it up in the store and start using it instead of waiting for shipping.
