Does the card reader work with iPads?
Yes! The card readers are iOS compatible.
Can I use a reader with my Android or Android Tablet?

I live in Canada, will I be able to use the card reader?

Can I use one card reader with my iPhone/iPad and Android device?
Yep! The card reader will work the exact same way with iOS and Android devices.
How long will the card reader battery last?
Out of the box, the card reader should last at least a thousand swipes/chip reads. The reader automatically shuts itself off after a few idle minutes. That being said, we do still suggest charging them often to ensure the battery is full and good to go. Better safe than sorry!
