A betterway to accept credit cards – on your iPhone
2011
I recently signed up with Square for their SquareUp credit card service. Square sends you a small reader device that plugs into your iPhones headphone port.
Thursday of this week, I tested out this system when I accepted 4 credit cards during the course I was teaching on “Understanding NM’s Property Tax System“.
The hardware/software system could not have been easier to use. One fast swipe of the client’s credit card
Followed by entering an amount, the client’s email address and having them “sign” with their finger and Viola!
An email recipt was sent to the client and I, and on mine, I could see the amount, the location of the sale, and the client’s email address.
Many of us know, the easier you can make it for someone to pay you, the more likely you are to have additional sales – and the Square system could not be an easier – and it looks very cool!
