  1. WooG

    I think it looks nice to have as a business versus the swipe. I kept dropping the swipe reader and having to buy a new one. So if you are accident prone like me, invest in the flat one upfront

  2. JohnB

    Works great. Easy set up and easy payment processing!

  3. Petey

    Not sure if it’s a bug or something, but I’ve gone through three of these devices trying to find the issue. Trouble connecting the reader at random times. No resolution from CS, nor any issues with my device.

  4. KennethP

    Great for mobile bussiness,easy setup seamlessly pairs to your Device.

  5. PennyK

    The most simple card reader to set up and use. I switched from another card reader that I was never able to get to work correctly! Sure wish I had gone with the Square to start with!

  6. TammyL

    Small and convenient to take payments. Makes a great way for tips to be added additionally to regular business charges.

  7. JustinG

    Purchase for my wife for her art shows as a mobile payment system. My only hang up with the unit was the syncing to iPhone

  8. LisetteF

    Perfect they helped me so fast I was worried because I went to the store by Uber and sometimes they left when I spent a long time but I got it

  9. user544831

    Works better than the slide type square that we replaced. So far it is very good.

  10. soorena

    This square contactless reader works as advertised and allows my small business to receive payments without any headache. The battery lasts weeks and pairing it with my iPhone was a breeze.

  11. IreneG

    Easy to use and very convenient. I keep moving from place to place and the reader doesn’t fail.

  12. user214700

    works great,………………………………………..

  13. Helen

    After I was unsuccessful getting the first one to work, I checked it with the Geek Squad and it was easily replaced. It worked well for credit cards at our Library Book Sale.

  14. StefanieW

    Easy to set up and use. Have to remember to charge it unless you have access to electricity at your event.

  15. Firstchurchfairfield

    Everything went smoothly with the purchasing process!

  16. AndreaR

    I bought a bluetooth Square for Android phones for my small business. It worked great!

  17. Rogelio

    when it works it’s great. We had to exchange the first one we bought since it stopped working right when we needed it a at a farmer’s market… so that was pretty bad. The new one seems to be working OK. Very easy to tap or insert the cards. Easy to use interface on the phone too.

  18. Dave

    I thought i lost my version 1 reader, so i bought this version 2 reader. Thankfully i found my old one because although the new one works, it loses connection over and over throughout the day. Very annoying. It now sits unused.

  19. MichelleG

    Great product and Best Buy had it in stock. I was able to pick up same day! Which was perfect becuase I didn’t have time for shipping!

  20. user674012

    We’ve not had an opportunity to use those products. Our review is regarding the poor customer service. First, our initial delivery dates were rescheduled for a later date. When we ordered these with 8 tablets, we told the agent that the order was for a church and we had a sales tax exempt certification. He advised that when we picked up our order, a credit would be issued. We found out that that is not the case, rather the church would have to open an account and then upload the certificate. Subsequently we found out that had I put the products on my account, that the church would receive an additional year’s warranty. Again, the agent that took our order did not give us this information. As far as the order processing I would rate this a zero on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being outstanding.

  21. Reggie

    Square is faster than paypal when taking payments but a little bit more in cost. Not much but in long run pennies add up. Over all ita good but the app/interface made it a little more difficult for me. Other than that its good.

  22. Dynasty

    small in size but comes with all of functions you need to process credit card payments. Very easy to set up. The design is also very sleek and modern. Love it, and will recommend to others!

  23. EddieC

    Opted for the more versatile wireless rechargeable more payment options!

  24. Customer

    The Application was so confusing I returned the square after a weekend of frustration and not getting it to work while I was doing an event.

  25. LupeC

    Square device worked like a charm during craft show .
    It made sales easy to do, and customers happy that I had it!

  26. BruceW

    I bought this for our plant club to process remote sales when many people don’t like carrying a lot of cash. It helped our sales increase and saved time processing the sale of multiple items at different prices. It has become a great tool that we can rely on. The processing fees are relatively inexpensive when you consider losing sales because you can’t accept credit or debit cards. A great purchase from Best Buy!

  27. AmandaB

    Very efficient and handy to use. Easy to setup! Great for events, on the spot purchases, etc. Size is pocket size and great to attach to phone with double sided tape or keep in pocket or a pouch! This is a must buy if needed.

  28. LorenS

    Works great! I love the tap option! Makes my business seem fancy!

  29. PaulaR

    Works great with Apple phone, and is easy to set up and use.

  30. Unknown

    I love targus and this was totally worth purchasing.

  31. Hello

    This product worked well and had great connectivity with my phone.

  32. LucyP

    For some reason this will not connect to my Bluetooth. I have yet been able to get it to connect since i have bought it. Waist of money.

  33. AmosS

    Great product and working well and able to process credit and debit transaction with record speed and lines move quickly and customers are well pleased. We should have purchased the readers months ago! Extremely easy to connect and use.

  34. FernandoQ

    Works great! Sometimes it’ll pair up to my phone, and other times I have to pair it to my phone each time I use it. But that could just be my phone.

  35. Hola

    I really loved it, I bought it a day before to charge a customer and it was really easy to set up and process payment.

  36. AASA

    Square Reader is very good quality and easy to use

  37. Unknown

    Works great, customers like having it available in the table. The battery lasts a long time.

  38. Joseph115p

    Bought this for my daughter who has a nail business and she loves it. Compact, mobile, and adds a professional look to her studio. Everything she does payment wise is all in one location and managed through one device. Very easy to setup and customize.

  39. HermanC

    Works great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  40. KevinK

    The Square Reader works for about 2 – 3 hours on battery before needing to be recharged. It only works when Cell Service/WIFI service is available. It does permit tap, or Swipe of Credit Cards, and software accepts manual entry.

    Unit is moderately priced, and better than the scan swipe, however if you’re just getting started, and are budget constrained, you might start with the plug-in swipe only device.

    Given today’s battery advancements, Square should look to improve the battery life on a full charge to 8 – 12 hours.

  41. Janjelene

    I love the this card reader. Has pay to pay and the regular card swipe ability.

  42. Dude

    It’s easy to use, and customer service was VERY helpful.

  43. MarthaM

    Item was delivered late for one.
    Second the product lags.

  44. Caroline

    I had a very hard time getting this reader to interact with both my internet and my square account. Not sure if this was just a lemon or if set up is really this difficult

  45. JuanP

    Best Buy saved me with this purchase. It is an amazing place to buy anything you need for your house or office anything.

  46. JoshT

    Very easy to set up and use, no connection issues!

  47. IvanaT

    Connect faster and the battery holds charge longer

  48. BrendaR

    Reader works great and functions as intended. If you have signed up for a square account a card reader is included for free as well as your smart phone turns into a credit card Tap device. Therefore, this extra device is not necessary. The only downfall this device has, is you cannot tell if it is powered on or how to turn it off.

  49. BushraQ

    Made payment process such a breeze.
    So convenient and super fast

  50. PavloKhramoi

    Great device, very convenient and compact thing for card transactions.
    Very liked the service of the store, I ordered online and was able to pick it up in an hour.
