The Square contactless and chip reader—which accepts both EMV and NFC payments— is our most technologically advanced device yet. It uses the latest version of Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), to connect wirelessly to your smartphone or tablet.
The Square contactless and chip reader is compatible with smartphones and tablets that have this version of Bluetooth built into them. Chances are if you’ve bought a new device in the last couple of years, it has the newer version of bluetooth. That’s because it works wonders for your battery life. (Which means you can do more transactions in more places without having to run back to a charger).
