My local coffee shop here in Tempe, AZ switched over to using an iPad with Square instead of a cash register about a month ago.
As a customer I like it. It's fast and slick. The employees seem to like it too.
Only one thing: if anybody from Square is reading this look into allowing the option of a bigger, sturdier card reader. The little on you ship now is flimsy and doesn't work too well if you use it 500 times a day.
That's what I keep thinking every time I see a picture of the thing. Looks like it would just rotate in the round headphone jack every time you swiped a card.
It's actually not that bad. And it looks like its perfect if you're using it for payments on the move. But if you're not going to be moving the payment station around you should be able to opt into a bigger and sturdier one.
Could someone build a cash drawer/charging dock that is connected to square somehow? Or even disconnected from square but still offer charging functionality
