I am looking to move away from the Cherry Keyboards and am interested in what you are using to swipe credit cards. What do you consider to be the best type of credit cards scanner to use with Tessitura?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

We have used the MagTek Mini Swipe Magnetic Strip Readers (203922340) for a few years in our ticket office and reception area. They have been extremely dependable, and are literally plug and play..no configuration was necessary for us. I recently had to replace one (after years of some rough treatment – dropping off the desk, etc.) and was still able to purchase them from Buy.com for a very reasonable price.
