Im not putting this in the droid thread since its for both platforms
I just noticed that this finally hit the market.
Square is the name on Android Market, im not sure for the iphone, but I am assuming its the same. I read a year or so ago in the paper that some people were making this. I thought it would have been a small thing that never got big. Now I see it will be. The only problem is, is that it is for smartphones(apple and android) so far. There are a lot of users of each but not everyone, but a lot of people DO know some friends or someone who has one.
This app will allow you to accept a credit card payment as a personal payment via your phone.
Yes, they give you everything for free. The only fee is added once a payment is made. Kind of like a sales tax.
There is two links below. The first is for the actual site. The second is for when you sign in and need to sign your bank account up. I couldnt find it in the actual setting screen, and had to find it through the faq, support page. You do need to sign up for a Credit Check in order to get the actual card reader. Or else you will get a higher percent taken out if you manually entering the numbers on your phone.

I do believe this is a great step forward towards a paperless economy.
