Re: square card reader

[Rhonda Scott]

I would be interested in knowing if the Square blue tooth card reader works 
as well, since I am looking for an accessible card reader for two totally 
blind folks.

I just got my new Square blue tooth card reader which will accept the chip 
cards but I haven't had a chance to try it as I generally don't get actual 
cards to swipe but this one will likely work. If anyone out there has used 
the new blue tooth version please let me know.

Can credit cards now be processed independently? I remember when I asked 
about an accessible credit card app a few months back, there was still an 
issue because the card reader for Square needed to utilize the headphone 
jack, so voiceover couldn't do its thing.

RE: Square card reader

[Karl Smith]

Hello Fellow square users or attempted users.

 

At the NFB convention I spoke with someone who is using Square with a splitter. 
It appears that what you need is a 4 pin splitter which in effect separates’ 
the microphone and headphone circuits in the iPhone headphone jack such that 
you can use a headphone and a separate microphone rather than one with the 
single jack. Well, I got one of these from Radio Shack for about $5.00 and it 
appears to get me a bit further down the road to working. I get audio through 
the headset jack and plug my card reader into the other jack. The software gets 
to the enter credit card number or swipe screen but no matter what I do the 
card won’t register when I swipe it. I do occasionally get a card not charged 
message and if I unplug the reader the message reader disconnected comes up 
indicating that it knew the reader was there. Can anyone tell me what the 
secret is to swiping a card? Is there something I’m not getting? I should also 
say that I tried swiping the card with just the reader plugged directly into 
the iPhone and then removing it to get audio back to see if maybe the reader 
really isn’t connected correctly through the splitter but it still doesn’t 
work. I should also say that I know this reader can work as the guy that cuts 
my lawn has borrowed it on occasion to use on his own iPhone. Any suggestions?

 

Karl

So, it does work, just has a few quirks.

Re: Square card reader

[Sumana Silverheels]

Lois,
Did you experiment with a splitter to find out if you could use a headset 
with the square reader and have speech output through it?

 If you have silence when you unplug the reader, you will know that the 
 swipe

 wait 
 until you hear it was successful.  Before that, there is no speech.  I 
 will 
 get used to it eventually. 

 So, it does work, just has a few quirks. 

 Good luck,

RE: Square card reader

[Lois Butterfield]

Yes, and it would not work at all once the reader is plugged in.  I found that 
the easiest way to handle it was to plug it in to swipe, then unplug it to get 
speech back.

 

I’d love to know if anyone has been successful with a splitter or with 
Bluetooth.  I found that they did not work for me.

RE: Square card reader

[DJ]

While I've been able to use the reader withbluetooth headphones once or
twice in the past, I haven't been successful for some time now.  I do the
same thing as suggested below.  I plug the unit in, swipe, and then unplug
the unit to check the results.  This works fine for me at this time
allthough I really hope that Square finds a way to make it work with
bluetooth at least.

I didn’t realize that would happen, but of course, it does.  I will try doing a 
transaction that way and see how it works.

 

Thanks again and again.

If you plug in the Square Card Reader and then turn on your Bluetooth headset 
sound should come through the headset. This works with any wired headset so it 
should also work with anything else you plug into the headset.

For example, if you listen with a Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth speaker and 
plug in a wired headset, then the sound switches to the wired headset. However, 
if you turn off your Bluetooth headset or speaker while the wired headset is 
plugged in and then turn it on again, sound switches back to the Bluetooth 
device.

RE: Square Card Reader

I tried using it with a splitter in the past and found that it did not work.
Plugging in the square also turns off communication with bluetooth
headphones.  I do use Square, but with some work-arounds.

Ok after reading the message below, I decided to give it another try and

Hi Scott,

 

When you plug something into the earphone jack on your phone, it switches
from Bluetooth.

 

There is a message in the archives from a while back about using square.  I
have one, and I have used it, but it's a little tricky to use.  I had more
trouble with the signature screen than anything.

Hello,

Is the app for the Square Credit Card reader accessible with Voice Over?  I
know that it plugs into the earphone slot but I would think that you could
use Bluetooth earphones with it and be able to use VO.

Thanks,

RE: Square Card Reader

[Sieghard Weitzel]

If you plug in the Square Card Reader and then turn on your Bluetooth headset 
sound should come through the headset. This works with any wired headset so it 
should also work with anything else you plug into the headset.

For example, if you listen with a Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth speaker and 
plug in a wired headset, then the sound switches to the wired headset. However, 
if you turn off your Bluetooth headset or speaker while the wired headset is 
plugged in and then turn it on again, sound switches back to the Bluetooth 
device.

Re: Square Card Reader

[Brent Harding]

Wouldn't the sound square needs the reader to pick up end up also coming 
through the bluetooth into your ear instead of into the reader, or can it 
specifically address the jack while leaving speech on bluetooth?

RE: Square Card Reader, Does it work with VoiceOver?

[DJ]

Penny,

When I use the reader, I manually enter the amount of the transaction before
plugging the reader into the headphone jack.  After plugging the reader in,
I swipe the card, sometimes 2 or 3 times to be sure I get a successful read.
I then unplug the reader.  If the card was read, I will find myself in the
screen where the person paying is supposed to sign.  If I am still in the
amount screen I Plug the reader in and try another swipe.  The only time the
reader has to be connected to the device is when you are actually ready to
swipe the card.  Also, you may want to wait about 5 seconds or so after
swiping the card before disconnecting the reader just in case it takes a few
seconds to complete all transfer of information between the reader and the
device.

I hope I explained this clearly enough.

Hi all,
Are there any merchants on this list who use the Square Card Reader
app with VoiceOver?  I have heard that the card reader plugs into the
headphone jack.  So, if that's the case, how can you hear what's
happening?  Can you use the Square Card Reader app and equipment along
with a bluetooth headset or IPhone dock?  Thanks for your help.

 Subject: Square Card Reader, Does it work with VoiceOver?
 
 Hi all,
 Are there any merchants on this list who use the Square Card Reader
 app with VoiceOver?  I have heard that the card reader plugs into the
 headphone jack.  So, if that's the case, how can you hear what's
 happening?  Can you use the Square Card Reader app and equipment along
 with a bluetooth headset or IPhone dock?  Thanks for your help.
 Penny

Re: Square Card reader

[Nicholas Abrahamson]

It's true the square reader plugs into the headphone jack.  i'd think for fast 
connectivity hardline would be easiest, because he or she could leave the 
splitter attached to square, and then just plug in really quickly if they 
wanted.  Bluetooth works just as well from what I've read.  Any decent 
headphone splitter would work, Dynex, monster, that kind of thing. 

Peace

 Is it true that the Square Card Reader plugs into the earphone jack?
  
 What kind of splitter is recommended?
  
 Or, is it better to use a blue tooth earphone?
  
 Thanks,

I have loaded apps, that when I have my ear phones plugged in, 
automatically route the sound to the speaker any way.  I wonder if this is 
possible with Square Card, and if a suggestion to developer wouldn't be a 
good idea for something like this.  I know there is no relation, but the 
apps with which I've noticed this feature, or possibly bug, are Zello and 
Talking Carl.

Re: Square Card Reader

[Sieghard]

Hi Jenine,

Unfortunately you will most likely discover that your bluetooth
headset will not work if you plug something into the headphone jack. I
didn't want to give you wrong information, so I just turned on
Bluetooth and then I turned on my Bluetooth headset. It took over as
usual and both VoiceOver and anything else (music, audio books etc.)
played on my bluetooth headset. I then plugged in my Apple wired
headset and any audio was immediately routed to it, it said in the
Bluetooth settings that my bluetooth headset was connected, but there
was no output. As soon as I unplugged the wired headset audio was back
on Bluetooth. Unless that card reader has some sort of headphone jack
on it so that you connect it to the headphone jack and then a headset
to it I think you will be out of luck.

I tried out one of those IR dongles last year which in connection with
an app turn your IOS device into a universal remote and here I found a
company which made a dongle that plugs into the 30-Pin connector,
others exist which also use the headphone jack. I am surprised there
are no credit card readers which use the 30-Pin connector.


Good luck,
Sieghard

Someone told me af few days ago that there's a card reader that connects to
the charging port of the Iphone.  That would eliminate the loss of speech,
right?

The problem I gather is that when you plug the device in you loose speech
because it connects to the earphone port. Using Braille however would
probably not pose a problem. I do not have one so cannot test it out.

Re: Square Card Reader

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, ah yes the signature. If the transaction is 25.00 or less, no 
signature is required. If it's more, then it is. However if you are 
taking a payment over the phone or making a manual transaction where the 
person  isn't there for whatever reason, then you have to write down 
phone order or phone auth. You have to turn off voice over in order to 
do this and it works fine. My wife and I play with this a little where 
she paid me for some fake services just to see how well the manual 
option would work out. The minimum payment you can take is $1.


Thanks.
