What type of stylus should be used with the Square Register?

I just installed a Square Register (I have used the IPAD stand for years) and I am wondering what type of stylus is recommended.  The soft stylus for capactive does not work.

Update: I just wanted share here that some sellers have found the following styluses effective with Square Register:

 

Stylus single-pack
Stylus multipack

 

If you do choose to use a stylus, consider cleaning each stylus periodically with a disinfectant. We've shared additional information about Cleaning your Square Hardware, and Products to Help you take Payments on our Business Resources board.

When it comes up, we just tell them "Please sign with your finger" and there's no problem!

Congrats on the new Square Register!

We just encourage our customers to use their fingers! Works the best, impossible to lose, and free!

Hope that helps,

We've been looking for a stylus to use with our Register system too.  Many customers are clearly uncomfortable signing with their finger.  It would just be a way to make the customer experience a little better.  We have tried many styluses(?), but none has worked yet.

@ShawsonGas, I hope you enjoy your Register as much as we do!

Good point - We disabled Signatures, so that's not improves the experience even more! 🙂

The problem is customers are not comfortable using fingers and prefer a stylus.
