How do I order a Credit Card Swiper?

Check Device Compatibility

Prior to placing a credit card swiper order, make sure your mobile device is compatible with the swipers. The swipers are only compatible with devices that have a Lightning Connector. If your device is not on the list linked below, it will not work with the swiper or companion app.

Note: Swipers should be purchased far in advance of intended usage (30-60 days) to ensure you account for shipping time. Purchasing swipers 30-60 days prior to your event will also give your organization a chance to familiarize themselves and troubleshoot any issue(s) before the date of intended use.

GiveSmart only uses the Magtek iDynamo 5 credit swipers provided by our merchant services partner, CardConnect. These swipers are compatible for use with both GiveSmart Events and GiveSmart Fundraise.

Only swipers purchased by clicking the blue ORDER HERE link below, are compatible with their associated GiveSmart mobile apps.
