Hi Jeff,
You should have no problem using a mobile phone with the P400 over WiFi. We actually use iPad tablets when we do demos. If we’re out of the office and don’t have a WiFi conneciton, we’ll even use the phone’s network as a hot spot to connect the two. As long as your device supports javascript, you’re covered.
I’d love to hear what other users experience doing the same.
If you’re interested in learning more, you can find us at [email protected].
We are looking for mobile solution for outdoor events and conferences, and although the Stripe BBPOS card readers are much much cheaper the P400 card readers, the BBPOS requires native app integration with Android and iOS seperately.
If the P400 works with phones/tablets then this will save some development costs to get the BBPOS card readers working!
I will install plugin and test it out and report back on how it works.
Thanks
Thanks Jeff!
