Hi @drtom 

What kind of phone are you using?

I have an android and this card reader works great with it: https://squareup.com/ca/en/hardware/reader

I shouldn't  have to pay for a card reader for my samsung galaxy S21 5G android that doesn't have a headphone jack. Other card companies, like pay anywhere, gives them to merchants for free!
