Using the BBPOS Chipper 2X BT card reader on Android

Short answer: Turn the reader on, tap Connect reader, then Bluetooth reader, and pick your BBPOS Chipper 2X BT. It still works, but it's no longer sold.

The BBPOS Chipper 2X BT is an older Bluetooth reader. It still works with the app, but it's no longer sold. Newer readers like the Stripe Reader M2 have replaced it. If you already have one, here's how to use it on Android.

  1. Make sure location services are enabled for the Payment app, and turn the reader on.
  2. Open the app and tap Connect reader at the top of the charge screen. (You'll find the same option in the menu at the top left.)
  3. Tap Bluetooth reader.

  4. Under Select reader, tap the BBPOS Chipper 2X BT whose serial number matches your reader.
  5. Enter an amount, tap Charge, then follow the prompt to tap, insert, or swipe the card.
