Square Terminal - Credit Card Machine to Accept All Payments | Mobile POS

Excellent quality. Fast shipping. we use these at pop-up markets for our vintage store. Work well with hotspot on our phones. You can either print a paper receipt, text a receipt, email receipt or no receipt Easy to use and quick to set up. You will need a Square account and a bank account to direct funds to.

The equipment far exceeds my former machine. I absolutely love the many financial transactions that are available as well as the speed it can deliver. It’s absolutely fantastic and Square works very well with my small business structure.

I'll start by saying, I am new to square, and I underutilized this machine and all of it capabilities. I currently am solely using it for credit card processing. However, what I really like about this machine is that it's sleek looking, light-weight, easy to set-up, and processes a transaction SO quickly that the customer can't even keep up. It has a great battery life, and we use ours at least 20+ times a day on average and we only have to re-charge it every 2 days or so. I've found that making a return is very simple and does not require the card to be present to do so, simply find the desired transaction under any specific date and choose the amount you want to refund. The cards are stored for future reference automatically. I also like that you can look at the end of the days sales report and it tells you right there what your fees will be. I like that it is very well written out for you like that and the fees are very reasonable compared to what I had been paying in the past. My ONLY complaint is that the signature screen, even with a compatible stylus I purchased separately, sometimes glitches and sends lines shooting across the screen as a customer is signing. Otherwise, I love this machine, my customers love it, my emloyees loves it, and I will most likely find more ways to use the other fantastic features this unit offers.

Works well for my wife's beauty shop

This square terminal works great. It accepts most credit cards and several different forms of payments. It is so convenient to have running your business. It works great and it holds a great charge for days on a full battery. Very easy to carry along with you.

I’m a hands-on business owner running real-world sales in multiple environments, and I rely on tools that are fast, reliable, and easy to use under pressure. This terminal has exceeded expectations in every category. I purchased this unit to step up from Square’s lower-level payment systems and gain additional functionality—and it delivers exactly that. Setup was straightforward, and from the first use it worked flawlessly. It accepts tap payments and card insertions with no issues, and handles all major credit and debit cards seamlessly. Transactions are fast, clean, and professional. Mobility is a huge advantage. Whether connected via Wi-Fi or tethered to a phone, it allows me to ring up customers anywhere—perfect for outdoor nursery sales, garage or yard sales, and in-store use. The built-in battery easily lasts a full day on a single charge, which is critical for mobile operations. The receipt printing is another standout feature. Being able to provide customers with an immediate physical receipt, fully detailed and generated on the spot, adds a level of professionalism that customers notice and appreciate. I’ve used multiple Square systems over time, and this is clearly the top-tier option in their lineup. It saves time, simplifies transactions, and enhances the overall customer experience. Even better, there’s no increase in processing rates, which makes the upgrade an easy decision from a business standpoint. This is a strong 5-star product based on performance, reliability, and real-world usability. Very highly recommended. It’s worth every penny in time savings, convenience, and customer service quality. I rely on reviews when making purchasing decisions, and I write mine to be just as honest and useful for others.

Nice handheld device but it doesn't pick up on mobile hotspots in the field. I bought this for my business doing outdoor events but nothing I did the device wouldn't pick up. Now it will if you want to take the chance of a card holder reporting fraud that you didn't correctly process their card. I don't so I returned it and bought the smaller square that works regardless of internet or not.

I was hoping to be able to create a transaction on the phone and pass it through to the terminal, but apparently that is not possible. Hopefully it will be a feature that can be added later through a firmware update. Also, you have to have a mobile hotspot (we do the farmers market), or wifi, to allow instant processing of transactions. Those 2 reasons are why I give it 4 stars. I would do 4.5 if possible because they are minor annoyances. I love that you can print a receipt from it and that it does all 3 methods of payments (chip, swipe and tap). We got it on sale for a great price and overall are happy with it. If something happens and that changes, I will update my review later, but for now, we like it.
