Hi KuddeepMatellio,

 

Lets confirm which Square Reader you are referring to as there are two types.  

 

There is a small Magstripe Reader which is can only do Swipes.

 

The other one is a Contactless and Chip Reader which can do only Dips (card insertion) and Taps (contactless).

 

(Both links provide detailed information.)

@JK_Fiber_Art 

am referring this device Contactless and Chip Reader 

Also have a few questions regarding this reader:

  1. Can I create a custom app build for Android using the Android Reader SDK?

  2. What is the minimum Android version required for that?

  3. Can I use this reader with any POS device via Bluetooth or USB cable? Please confirm, and if yes, provide details on how to do so

Hi KuldeepMatellio,

 

As a follow-up to your questions - you may want to visit the Developer Forum for some of your concerns with question 1 & 2.   Techie questions are better suited for that Community - this Community has a lot of experience with more business type concerns as many of us are small business owners - not Developers or Coders.   As for question 3 - see this link - Check Compatibly -  then Check Square Reader for Contactless and Chip - it will show you what accessories you can connect to.  Also check this link for Device Compatibility.  Square has lots of info available, one just has to do a looking.
