Twitter founder releases portable credit card reader

October 22, 2010/0 Comments/in Credit Cards /by Debtmerica

Dorsey, now the CEO of mobile payment solutions firm Square, announced the release of his company's credit card reader, which works with iPads, iPhones and Android phones, according to USA Today. The device, which plugs into the devices' headphone jack, is smaller than a quarter and available free of charge, as is the program it works with. About 50,000 were shipped to small businesses and consumers nationwide ahead of the official launch.

However, there is a fee associated with each transaction, according to the newspaper. Square charges businesses that use the service 2.75 percent of the purchase price, plus another 15 percent if the transaction involves credit card debt.

In recent months, many companies have released similar devices that will allow businesses to process transactions involving credit card debt. There has been an increased demand for such services and now portable technology makes these programs possible.

*Fees are based on the amount of enrolled debt and may vary from state to state. Individual results may vary based on your ability to save sufficient funds to complete a debt settlement program, the creditors in your individual portfolio, and amount of debt enrolled. Monthly payments under the program may be less than your monthly minimums before enrollment. Estimates and statements made regarding program performance are based on historical results and the testimonials provided were dependent on the facts of the specific client’s situation. We cannot guarantee settlement results or that your debt balances will be lowered by a specific amount or percentage or that your debts will be resolved within a specific period of time. Any use of the term “debt-free” only applies to accounts that have successfully enrolled and completed a debt settlement program. Debtmerica, LLC is an enrollment agent for debt settlement programs and back-end services are provided by third-party companies. Debtmerica, LLC and/or the back-end service provider will not receive any fees until the terms of your debt have been altered with one or more of your creditors. While programs are designed to reduce your debt balances, creditors are under no contractual obligation to negotiate or accept settlement offers from our service providers. We do not assume consumer debts, make monthly payments to creditors, or provide tax, bankruptcy, accounting or legal advice or credit repair services. Please contact a tax professional to discuss potential tax consequences of settled debts. The use of debt settlement services will likely adversely affect your creditworthiness, may result in you being subject to collections or being sued by creditors or collectors and may increase the outstanding balances of your enrolled accounts due to the accrual of fees and interest. However, negotiated settlements obtained on your behalf resolve the entire account, including all accrued fees and interest. Photographs of persons used in this website are not actual clients.
