My Square reader does not fit into my new iPhone (15). What do I need to do?

[dt6]

I can no longer use my Square reader because it doesn't fit with my iPhone 15.  Help!

You will not be able to use the old magnetic stripe reader anymore as the iPhones are moving to USB-C and no more lightning.  

Your best option is just taking tap payments directly on your new phone with the built in hardware. https://squareup.com/us/en/payments/tap-to-pay

you could also get the bluetooth reader.https://squareup.com/shop/hardware/us/en/products/chip-credit-card-reader-with-nfc

Square now does offer a Mag reader for USB - C ports, Headphone, and Lightening port.  

Just look up the correct one you need for your Device.

Will square develop a stripe reader for the new iPhone because credit union debit cards do not have the tap capability

I have a new Iphone14 and it doesn't take the square reader either. Does square automatically come with the built in capacity to tap on your phone or do you have to download it onto your phone and if so how do you do that?

You can take tap on your iPhone directly in the Square app.
