Lost my original reader and bought this to replace it. Works great on my Android. It was very easy to set up and use. Very cost effective for occasional use.

  • Works way better with newer phones.
Style: USB-C
Amazing product works great and the app works super well. Only for card swiping so a cash app card won't work.

  • Great for small business owners!
Style: USB-C
Got this for my bf for his detailing business, customers can pay way faster rather than sending Venmo or Zelle. It’s super fast almost no lag! Quality is great too. Would recommend for small business owners.
