Apple's recently released iPhone 7 is the first Apple phone without an audio port. This long awaited feature will allow mobile merchants who love their iPhones to connect with BBPOS Chipper BT and Chipper 2X BT without plugging a device into their phone.
BBPOS plug-in versions of Chipper have long provided merchants using iPhones with a mobile connectivity option using an audio jack; however, adding a plug-in device that extends from the audio jack on any phone or device increases the size of the combined unit, and makes what is an otherwise portable and powerful piece of technology less mobile. Conversely, Chipper BT and Chipper 2X BT can be attached to the back of the phone or be easily carried in a pocket. These devices are among the smallest and most advanced mobile payment solutions in the world.
With the change to Bluetooth connectivity, Apple has opened the door for merchants using the iPhone 7 to become extremely mobile. BBPOS Chipper BT and Chipper 2X BT are small, but powerful devices; Bluetooth connectivity allows the devices to remain independent of the phone, and still provide secure, reliable transactions. More importantly, both Chipper BT and Chipper 2X BT provide the most complete, all-in-one, payment technology solutions in the world.
Chipper BT is a compact, 2-in-one magstripe and EMV card reader that combines reliability and affordability in a single, advanced mPOS device.
Chipper 2X BT is an equally compact, 3-in-one device that accepts MSR, EMV and NFC or close proximity transactions like Apple Pay, Android Pay, Samsung Pay, VISA Paywave, MasterCard PayPass, AMEX ExpressPay and Discover D-PAS. The Chipper BT and the Chipper 2X BT redefine performance, reliability, and convenience for mobile businesses that require superior mPOS technology.
