Mobile Credit Card Processing Reviews

Square Payments earns a perfect 5-star rating for ease of use, astounding feature set, transparent and affordable pricing, and overall status as a powerhouse for merchants.

Square Terminal combines Square’s mobile POS app with an integrated card reader, all in a compact handheld device. Check out our in-depth review to see if it’s really worth the investment.
