Not available in the UK right now.. but does this look like it could be an interesting idea when it is.. even at 2.7% fee per transaction..

There's a point, never thought of that one. It would be handy to have though and you'd just have to eye up the customer and make a decision - good payer or scumbag :biggrin:

Shows how un-trusting I am of people really lol.. that was my first thought
I love the idea though.. great for people like me who don't want to have a reader at home as I wouldn't really use it.. but if someone out and about at say a stand or whatever wanted to pay by card.. I could whip out the reader and hey presto.. money taken..
