Card Reader

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.5
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.6
-- PHP version -- : 5.4

My client would like to use a card swipe so he can take payments easier during shows. Are you aware if this function works with HikaShop? He is still in the process of selecting a merchant account so we are very open to whichever pay system is already functioning with this. He has experience with Authorize.net, which offers a swipe but it looks like it is only integrated into their own app. He only accepts US Dollars.

Hello,
If you want your client to use your shop, they will have to go through your shop checkout workflow and then pay their orders.

Yes, thank you for your time Mohamed.
We are building a business edition HikaShop for our client that wants to sell clothing online. They would like to add all of their products to their shop so they can control what their inventory is from one place. They also do clothing shows and sell their clothes at those shows. At the end of the show the customers will come up to them and place orders (via my clients ipad), there can be up to 200 customers waiting to place these orders and they can lose business with folks not willing to wait in line. I'm trying to find the easiest way for them to place those orders on their site quickly. They are very interested in using a card reader instead of keying in the customers cc info. So if a customer came up they could select the product on the site, go to checkout, login, and swipe a credit card to pay.
Currently they have an Authorize.net account, and it does offer a card swipe for the iPad but I'm not sure if it will work with HikaShop.
Can you help shed some light on what is needed here?
