Some time ago, there came a really interesting application for the Apple iPhone, called, ‘Simply Swipe It‘, with which users could use their credit cards with the help of their iPhones. Although, it was a very useful application, yet it required an attachment to be used with the iPhone to conduct the transactions. Now, Macally, a name synonymous with computer and mobile accessories has introduced an all new Secure Credit Card Terminal for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch, called ‘Swipe It Reader’.
This great new device, essentially turns your iPhone into a secured credit card machine as the device provides the users with an iPhone or iPod Touch dock as well as a slot for swiping cards, all rolled into a single package. The Swipe It Reader is said to be fully compatible with the Simply Swipe It application and is operable on both wifi and 3G network connections. This unique device makes your business or personal transactions truly mobile as the device supports Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover cards and facilitates the users with lowest credit card rates.
The Swipe It Reader is said to have an adjustable spring-loaded arm that provides adequate support to your iPhone or iPod Touch regardless of their size. Also, due to the size of this device, it can be used as a handheld platform or can be used for desktop purposes. There is no indication on the price of the Swipe It Reader or the availability of the device as of now.
