Square Terminal - Credit Card Machine to Accept All Payments | Mobile POS

I recently purchased the Square Terminal and I’m very satisfied with it. The device is easy to use, fast, and allows me to accept all types of payments (card, tap, chip, and contactless). The screen is clear, and entering amounts is simple. It’s also very portable, so I can carry it anywhere for my business. The price is a bit high, but I think it’s worth it because it makes my work more professional and helps me serve customers faster. The battery lasts well, and I really like that it has a built-in receipt pri – I highly recommend it to anyone running a business and looking for a reliable, simple payment solutio

A must have for any business, easy to use . Monthly usage and reports

I have both a traditional merchant account with a large bank, and a Square account because my business travels and sometimes a phone line is unavailable for my Verifone machines. Up until this Square register purchase, my staff were using Square phone readers (the plug in kind) on their cell phones where traditional phone lines were unavailable. Not a big deal, but sometimes phone batteries would run down quick. Same thing with the Square bluetooth cube: battery can run down much quicker and sometimes BT would disconnect when trying to make a sale. Additionally some customers didn't feel comfortable with no printed receipt, or their card being swiped on someone's phone. SO..this terminal is VERY NICE! It works exactly the same and looks the same as the Square phone app & dashboard, so no learning curve for staff. It even prints receipts, which is nice because some folks still don't want receipts emailed or texted. This machine worked flawlessly right out of the box, and after a whole day of use the battery had barely gone down. You can easily connect to wi-fi anywhere. A power cord and accessories hub was included in my purchase, so even if the battery gets low, a quick plug in will keep you in business. The accessory hub allows you to connect via ethernet cable if you can't use wi-fi, and it also has USB ports so you can connect other devices, charge phones, etc. The machine has a substantial weight to it and seems sturdily built. I can't think of any negatives; I'm really surprised at how nice it is. I felt it was a little pricey but perhaps that is because it is new, and unlike traditional terminals, doesn't require your bank to download software. So it acts more like a computer than a regular terminal. The print quality is very nice, and in your Square dashboard you can add a custom message to your receipts. You will also see any items you have created in your dashboard so you can keep track of which items sell the most; you can see and print reports from the terminal as well. Time will tell if it will hold up but for the first day of business it was excellent and I am very pleased with my purchase.

The Square Credit Card Portable Machine is very easy to use. You can upload your products directly on the device or on the website (preferred because all your corresponding images are most likely on your main computer). It only takes seconds for the two to sync. Your customers will appreciate the convenience and you will be happy it is helping you make more sales. Transferring your sales to your bank account is a snap too. Handle your business . . .

The ease of use and complete convienance of having it works perfectly for both my charity fundraising work and when I sell my crafts. It is amazing that it takes so many different forms of payment. That makes it even easier. Highly recommend!!!

very happy with my pruchase

Square terminal has a very, very low quality wireless internet chip/antenna/system/software. Failed to connect or even find a connection. This type of failure is well reported in the lower three tiers of Amazon reviews. This was purchased for on the go sales using available signal that I have used countless times before. Had to resort to standby card reader connected to the Square software on my phone. Tested the wireless signals with two different devices. There is definitely a fault. Why did I buy this device? We do craft fairs and utilize available wireless usually through a nearby store NOT via cellphone. Realize that only by an actual internet connection are Square credit card purchases verified so you are handling a valid card. I have seen this problem with other alleged wireless connections devices most frequently in scanners. A local merchant I see has had connectivity problems and even problems with the thermal printer. This device is not designed to last. There are numerous reports of the sale of outdated and unsupported hardware with this company. My advice is to stick to simple and use the small reader that connects to a phone by blue tooth. The Square company spent more money on the packaging than testing the viability of this terminal/printer/wireless device. First few transactions worked through home internet and then not at all.
