How do I take payment for a USA card via the Square card reader?

[OsTB]

With many USA issued cards there is no PIN and no Contactless functionality. I have a small Square Reader connected to my Android Device, and neither of these standard UK security features are usable in this case.

Does anyone know how to take payment?

Thank you

Hi @OsTB, welcome to the Seller Community!

I'm sorry for the delayed reply. Most US travellers are made aware of UK standards by their bank and hold a card with either contactless and/or chip & PIN functionality. However, if you come across a customer with a swipe only card, you can manually enter the card details to accept their card or send them a payment link through your Virtual Terminal or Online Checkout link. 

I hope this is helpful. Please let me know if you have any questions at all.
