Can a single mobile device connect to multiple card readers?
No, a mobile device can only connect to one card reader at a time to ensure each payment is processed correctly and to avoid order mix-ups. The Bluetooth connection between the device (iPad, Android tablet, iPhone, Android phone, etc.) and the reader works within a range of about 40 feet. If the device moves out of range, it will automatically search for a new reader, but only one can be paired at any time.
Running multiple card readers is a great way to speed up lines. Each person processing payments will need their own mobile device with the SuccessFund app and a card reader. Readers can be purchased at www.successfund.com/readers.
For those assisting without a card reader, Venmo payments can be accepted directly through the mobile app. You can also use the app to look up orders, scan receipts, or log cash transactions without needing a reader.
