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.

    Have not needed the swipe reader much since most cards are now chipped, but the dedicated swipe reader has worked without a hitch whenever it's been used. Replaces a combo reader which started having problems. Also bought the chip reader but it wasn't clear that the chip reader also included the swipe reader--kept this one as a back-up, though haven't really needed it.
