Hey @thervacademy. Does you phone have plug-in charging capability? Or is that wireless, too? What kind of phone is it?
According to Square’s device compatibility page, the only reader that will work for you is their contactless chip reader. It only works for chip cards, tap cards and contactless payments like Apple/Google Pay. For magstripe cards, you’d have to keep keying them manually, but thankfully there are not a lot of those left in the world! I looked at a couple of threads here to see if maybe you could use the magstripe reader with a USB-C adaptor, but the results were very mixed. Sometimes those work, sometimes they don’t. And Square doesn’t guarantee using their magstripe reader with an adaptor will always have the desired results.
