I purchased the stand for my shop and the swipe reader works every time, no matter which way I run it. &nbsp;I also use the portable swipe reader for when we travel to different events and have never had an issue.</P> Wed, 19 Jul 2017 18:36:14 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/I-will-be-using-Square-for-our-high-school-concession-stand-What/m-p/43425#M54047 cmbutl 2017-07-19T18:36:14Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/I-will-be-using-Square-for-our-high-school-concession-stand-What/m-p/43429#M54048 <P>Thank you that is what I was thinking, but a second opinion is always helpful<span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":grinning_face:">😀</span></P> Wed, 19 Jul 2017 18:42:21 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/I-will-be-using-Square-for-our-high-school-concession-stand-What/m-p/43429#M54048 Lakeshore1 2017-07-19T18:42:21Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/I-will-be-using-Square-for-our-high-school-concession-stand-What/m-p/43430#M54049 <P>You're welcome.</P> Wed, 19 Jul 2017 18:44:18 GMT https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/I-will-be-using-Square-for-our-high-school-concession-stand-What/m-p/43430#M54049 cmbutl 2017-07-19T18:44:18Z https://community.squareup.com/t5/Archived-Discussions-Read-Only/I-will-be-using-Square-for-our-high-school-concession-stand-What/m-p/43462#M54050 <P><a href="https://community.squareup.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/63712">@Lakeshore1</a>, great question, and welcome to Square!
