[Blindtlk] credit card readers help please

[Julie J.]

I tried a headphone splitter.  It doesn't work.  The Pay Pal Here ap gives 
me a message to unplug my headphones immediately.  I get this same message 
if I plug the headphones in directly.

I don't have a blue tooth headset or speaker.  So trying that will have to 
wait a bit.

Does anyone know of a different way to be able to process credit card 
transactions using a phone or tablet?   I know there are a lot of different 
companies that offer this service.  If someone knows of one that is 
accessible, I would appreciate very much the name of it.

Thanks!
Julie

You may also want to try a headphone splitter.
