Order a Stripe Terminal Card Reader

You can order a card reader from the Stripe Terminal shop here: dashboard.stripe.com/terminal/shop. Anything you buy there is guaranteed to work with Payment for Stripe.

For most US merchants we recommend the Stripe Reader M2 (pocket-sized Bluetooth). For countertop use there's the BBPOS WisePOS E, and the all-in-one Stripe Reader S700/S710 runs the app right on the device — no phone needed.

One tip: always order through Stripe at the link above. Readers from places like Amazon are locked to other platforms and won't pair with the app.
