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).

    I bought a few of them. Could be made more durable. Surly a Chinese low quality product. When I swipe people's cards some hardly work.. Never the less a handy gimmick to have

    Great for accepting credit cards. Need to make sure your swipe is steady. Any movement and you'll get a bad swipe.

    My wife and I have had issues with this device. It'll connect and disconnect repeatedly. When I'm trying to process a payment and it disconnects, it is a bit embarrassing. Make sure it works properly before return period ends.
