Magnetic Card Readers

A magnetic card reader, also referred to as magnetic stripe reader (MSR), connects to the POS system via a USB, PS/2 or serial interface, reading and transferring the customers´ credit card data to the computer for transaction processing. The magnetic stripe on the back of a bank, gift, or credit card features two or three programmable tracks to store data.

POSMicro carries a full line of magnetic card readers from top POS hardware manufacturers like IDTech, MagTek, Unitech, POS-X and Logic Controls that interpret tracks 1 & 2 and magnetic stripe readers capable of reading all three tracks. Some magnetic card readers offer programming options to customize data transmission to the POS system.
