I very rarely pay w/plastic (#warOnCash), but made some exceptions & noticed that “Zettle by Paypal” was printed on the receipt. I got burnt in the sense that I #boycottPaypal in part b/c they are reckless w/data (they share data w/over 600+ corps). If I knew in advance that #Paypal was in the loop, I would not have paid w/plastic. #Zettle.com is tor-hostile as well.

My new $29 PayPal Zettle card reader device arrived yesterday.

Zettle is the new "pay here" replacement for PayPal -- and you have to upgrade your payment device if you want to continue to take credit card payments with PayPal.

The PayPal/Venmo welcome kit was thorough. Lots of information and payment stickers included.

The super lightweight "Zettle 2" card reader uses Bluetooth to connect with your phone and then updates its firmware.
