What is a credit card reader?
A credit card reader gives you the ability to accept credit cards using an iPhone, iPad, Android and other mobile devices. A credit card swiper has a small dongle that attaches to your mobile device by plugging it into either the headphone or auxiliary plug of a tablet. (See below). A credit card reader also comes with a mobile app that is used to process credit card payments.
