Great portable card reader. Pretty fast transactions, nice size,convenient to use, works offline, easy to use with the square app. Allows card purchases on the go, great for vendor events. The app allows a free version, so you don't have to pay a monthly fee. Overall , it fits my needs perfectly.

This worked great at my vendor fair. Only have to make sure you are able to connect to the internet for payments to be able to process. Besides having internet connectivity issues, taking payments on the square reader was quick, easy, and straight to the point.

Amazing! I already had the app and was having trouble with the tap to phone feature this weekend. I bought this yesterday after our event and it arrived this afternoon. I was able to connect it via bluetooth right away. It automatically did an update (took 5 minutes) and was ready to go. I did 3 $1.00 purchases to test it. I kept my wallet nearby to see if it picked up any other cards close by as some reviewers had trouble and it did not. Now I do have and RFID wallet so I don't know if that helps. But the first purchase i just tapped my card to the reader and it didn't pick up the card until it actually touched the reader, awesome went through in seconds. the second purchase I put the card in the reader and within seconds it read the card and done. Third time i slowly went to the reader to tap to make sure it didn't pick it up and if it did from what distance and nope didn't charge the card until it touched the reader. Awesome! This is going to make my life so much easier and pleasant for me and my customers! I love it. It's small enough to fit in a pocket but the design and quality is exceptional. I will keep it in the box until I use it until I get a case for it. I have another event Saturday and Sunday and I can't wait to use it! So happy right now!

Worked great at first but suddenly stopped working after 2 months. It wouldn't pair with any device. Took a charge, blinkrd all the correct lights but wouldn't pair. I tried Square help and none of the fixes worked. Used a search engine to finally find a fix. If this happens to you, press and hold the power button until all lights go off, about 20 seconds. Wait a minute and turn it back on. Mine was able to pair with my phone again, it did an update and started working again. Overall it works great most of the time, but failing mid market like that is scary.

WARNING! This is not a "tap to pay" quote device. It works on bluetooth so it can read cards in the vicinity that are not touched to the device. I did an art show and lost more than $700 worth of items because the device was scanning MY OWN credit card deep in a shoulder purse hanging on my left side while I held the device in my right hand. It wasn't until the 4th sale that I realized it was scanning my own card. instead of the customer's card who was holding it up their card to the device. It was scanning mine before they touched the pad. I shared with the other artists and found many had had the exact same experience. One artist lost several sales last year in same manner and one person lost an entire weekend's show sales because EVERY charge was charged to her own credit card in her pocket and not to the customer's card that held it up. It is NOT tap to pay it will read any card in the vicinity if you're in the checkout mode. I contacted customer service for Square online and on the phone and received no help whatsoever. This was three months ago. They absolutely know that it is a habitual problem with the device and they have done nothing to correct it to my knowledge. Customer service said they would have a higher level of manager contact me and of course it never happened. They did not even offer to refund their credit card fees. So in addition to purchasing my own paintings I had to pay 7% each for the sale and return fees. They do not care. They 100% know this is a very common problem and they 100% do not do anything about it and they 100% don't give a damn about their customers. Be very very careful if you use this that you are getting the proper credit card scan and that the card is reading the customer's desired card and not a different one in their wallet or purse. And protect your own cards with RFID sleeves. I cannot believe there is not a class action suit over this Like others Square has been charged with. I will be the first person to sign up. When speaking to customer service they reviewed the bill and they clearly saw and ADMITTED that my own product was charged to my own card. They won't respond.
