Our next step is purchasing hardware eg Stand, cash drawer etc. We have a Samsung Galaxy 5 are we better to purchase an iPad to run the app through?</P> Mon, 28 May 2018 08:11:00 GMT Pagan7891 2018-05-28T08:11:00Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Community-Corner/Best-Hardware/m-p/82780#M1521 <P>Hi, we are at the beginning of setting up Square as our POS system.

You'd need one of the following models of iPad to use Stand:</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>iPad (6th generation 2018)<BR /> iPad (5th generation 2017)<BR /> iPad Pro 9.7”<BR /> iPad Air 2<BR /> iPad Air</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>A Samsung Galaxy S5 or Note 5 will still work though if you need to use it with a reader to take payments, provided it's running Android 5.0 or above&nbsp;<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":thumbs_up:">👍</span></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Let me know if you have any questions!</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Mon, 28 May 2018 23:13:13 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Community-Corner/Best-Hardware/m-p/82832#M1522 Seamus 2018-05-28T23:13:13Z
