Adafruit is testing SQUARE payment system – WE HAVE BETA DONGLE. Here are some photos and video! It’s after midnight, this was a 30 sec vid, we’ll do another one later :) So far we’ve taken payment with the system, works great – SQUARE did a wonderful job, small biz owners and regular folks who want to take payments are going to have a lot of fun with this.

[edit: the dongle is milled & glued, not 3D-printed!]

  1. If I ever get to be a writer for a sci-fi TV show, I’m going to try to work the phrase “We have beta dongle” into every single episode.

    “Mr. Worf, report.”
    “We have beta dongle, captain.”
    “Engage!”

  2. Wonder if us Otterbox users will be able to use this?
    I can’t use an FM tuner on my iPhone due to the added bulk.
