https://community.squareup.com/t5/Payments-Troubleshooting/Prompted-to-insert-chip-using-magstripe-reader-when-tap-to-pay/m-p/744456#M3035 <P>I prefer to use tap to pay on Note 20 Ultra 5g, but some of my clients do no have a contactless card. When tap to pay is enabled, using the a magstripe reader prompts me to insert the chip. I do not have a chip reader device. In order to process the payment, I have to cancel the swipe, go into settings, disable tap to pay, go back to checkout, run magstripe reader, then re-enable tap to pay for the next client. I had this issue in April 2023 when tap to pay was first released. I thought maybe it's a bug that would be resolved with a little time. Almost a year and a half later, I still have the same issue. Is there a better solution?</P> Sat, 20 Sep 2025 07:27:53 GMT miau 2025-09-20T07:27:53Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Payments-Troubleshooting/Prompted-to-insert-chip-using-magstripe-reader-when-tap-to-pay/m-p/744456#M3035 <P>I prefer to use tap to pay on Note 20 Ultra 5g, but some of my clients do no have a contactless card.

I have a Galaxy S21+ 5G. And now since I just implemented the Square Appointments App with my salon business had the first of a few clients that need to dip instead of tap. It would not connect to my reader today for them to dip. I use the Square reader (Dip &amp; NFR capability) that sits in the Dock for Square reader and it is always charged. Hopefully there is an answer in the Community for this issue.</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Wed, 09 Oct 2024 01:17:51 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Payments-Troubleshooting/Prompted-to-insert-chip-using-magstripe-reader-when-tap-to-pay/m-p/755603#M3037 Babyl 2024-10-09T01:17:51Z
