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 reader has to be one of the easiet ways to accept card payments on the go. If you are looking to sell goods, or you have a small business, this reader is the way to go.

    With my son selling popcorn for Cub Scouts, I had to find a way to help him sell popcorn for those that don't carry cash or a check book. This is it. Works very well

    This works awesome for what it is supposed to be used for. I really enjoy the square up program. They are only 10 dollars and are definitely worth it, especially with a small business.
