A pay card reader is a type of device which is
mainly utilized for reading debit cards & credit cards through magnetic
band and a pin technology. Pay card reader is commonly connected to the
smart-phones through an audio jack or also through NFC or Bluetooth technology.
The device decodes the information contained on the card, and transmits the
information to a payment processor. After this, the payment processor
authenticates that sufficient funds are available to complete the transaction,
and the merchant completes the sale.
