Pass CC info directly to square?

How can I pass CC info directly to square to be processed without having to manually enter it through the portal? I have all the relevant info already in variables so the portal a bottleneck. I get all my credit cards from one employer who issues them as payment for contract work. 

 

I have a widget created that will pull all the pertinent information from the email when they send me the details. Seeing as I already have everything in variables it would be so much easier just to pass it straight to square at that point instead of having to display it on my screen as an overlay and then manually enter it in to the portal. Any help would be appreciated

Hey there, @Wkroadside

 

The best option to avoid the manual entry would be to use one of our readers, so it will capture it automatically. 

 

Check out the readers we have available in the Square Shop.

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

How is a reader going to help when I get the CC details emailed to me? Like I said, its in variables. It's how I receive payment on jobs and there is no risk of fraud or chargebacks as it comes from my employer. Speaking of which, I should be getting better rates due to that.
