Could you confirm which reader is giving you problem? Is it the regular magstripe reader or the chip card reader? Or is it the swiper on the Square Stand?</P> Fri, 21 Jun 2019 19:01:37 GMT nika 2019-06-21T19:01:37Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Payments-Troubleshooting/Swipe-Reader-Is-Not-Picking-Up-Cards/m-p/125662#M25885 <P>Okay so my square isn't picking up any cards in the the swipe reader. It's been fine up until this point. Its cleaned and I have 2 different readers. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the app. It's not picking AT ALL. Square is essential to my business and I need this fixed ASAP. What do i do? Square also takes [Personal Information Redacted] as i have a small loan through them. Please someone help.</P> Sat, 20 Sep 2025 14:29:44 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Payments-Troubleshooting/Swipe-Reader-Is-Not-Picking-Up-Cards/m-p/125662#M25885 MattMiller 2025-09-20T14:29:44Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Payments-Troubleshooting/Swipe-Reader-Is-Not-Picking-Up-Cards/m-p/125795#M25886 <P>Hey <a href="https://community.squareup.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/181950">@MattMiller</a>.
