The link below is from my post back in February and has a video that tells a bit more. This is pretty self explanatory, get the device, attach it and sign up for the service and you are ready to rock and roll.
Mobile Payments With Square Up –IPhone and Portable Card Reader Reads Credit Cards
Actually this is good for anyone but the thought of doctors being mobile was first to enter my mind here. You could even use this in the office for that matter too. BD
This is moving into the next phase here and when we talk about doctors making house calls again, what a great way to get payment on the spot. There’s a similar technology working for banks to deposit checks with your camera on the phone. One bank is already there, so are you still just using your cell phone for phone calls?
USAA Bank/Financials Introduce Service for Deposits – Take a Picture of the Check with Your iPhone
Square, the small gadget that can enable a cellphone to accept credit card payments, launched Tuesday, with applications for the iPhone, iPod Touch and Android. The app for the iPad became available a month ago at the launch of Apple's tablet computer.
The newest start-up from Twitter creator Jack Dorsey has begun taking orders for the plastic credit card-swiping gizmo on its website.
Each user can claim one Square device free of charge. The gadget is plugged into the headphone jack on a supported device and interfaces with the companion software.
Square users can list their Twitter handles on receipts -- not surprising considering the mastermind behind the microblogging network is at the help of the financial start-up.
