Angry Use Of Square UP Reader

I'm starting this here cause there isn't on for Xoom.

Square up works on my Motorola Xoom. Its pretty cool bought from Apple store. Paid 9.95. In side the box was a 10.00 gift card. I've used it twice all ready and it's great. they do the Pay-pal thing...

Square are a mobile payment system. The reader is a card reader that you can plug into the headphone jack I believe. I didn't know there was an Android app but I am in the UK and think it could be a US thing only so far.

I'm thinking about switching off of my quickbooks merchant services to something like this. No monthly fees, flat 2.75% per transaction with swiped cards is much better than $19.95 a month with a $20 minimum @ 3.something % through QB.

I do several thousand dollars a month is sales using Square. It works great.Not sure why you would "buy it" at the Apple store though. If you go to their website and sign up (Free) they send you a free reader. I guess the cost of the gas to run over to the Apple store so you can fondle an iPad 2 is worth it for some people.

You pay $10 for the reader and get $10 Credit voucher for Square so it is the same really.
