Hi @santanyoga!

 

The magstripe reader accepts credit card payments. So in order to accept Interac debit cards, you'll want to check out our Contactless and Chip reader or Terminal.

 

Just a heads up: the Contactless & Chip reader has an interact flash limit of $100. The Terminal accepts all forms of payments (tap, dip, and swipe). Your customers can tap their debit cards for payments under $100. Or, they can insert their debit cards and enter their PIN for payments of any size.

 

Let me know if you have questions!

Well these things vary from person to person and sometimes from state to state. Some states allow these payments gateways and some denies. Because I have experienced this in my practical life, I am a lawyer and offering services related to visa and immigration. You may contract me via Gulbenkian Andonian Solicitors for any kind of consultation.
