the iphone peripheral maker mophie is set to debut a credit card swiping accessory at the upcoming 2010 CES show in las vegas. the attachment would plug into the iphone and an application on the phone would process the card, allowing users to buy things or transfer money. this isn’t the first iphone credit card accessory, but it does integrate the design into a very streamlined housing. its main competitor is the square, a device developed by twitter’s founder jack dorsey. the idea behind this new sector of iphone accessories is to add more security to making transactions through the device, giving users a simple way to accept payment without extra hardware or services.

People seem to comment without comprehension as to what this product is. You may want to research the product (via the provided link) before you exhibit your ignorance of the product.
As Louisa comments this will be a very valuable tool for a retailer, exhibitor, or off site transaction. I deal in an industry which will embrace a product such as this.
I think it’s great! I work in the events industry and as our exhibitors are small traders they often get ripped off by venue charges for PDQ machines and telephone lines.. This will allow the small trader to do show after show without extra expenses.
Bring it on!
I agree with miguel. What’s the point in all this. if you are taking that much hassle they its better you provide an atm machine all alone.

i don’t really understand this project. in an era that you can do everything with just one finger (the one finger generation, the thumb generation), the iphone itself wich has nothing that a screen on we can use our finger, what’s the point of this project? it could only make sense if the iphone provides you phisical money like an ATM machine…
well… don’t like it at all… :S
First of all, I agree with “c”. And second, it would be easier to the thiefs robbing your money just taking their cellphones and making people pass them cards into the phone. Well. It must be other ways, maybe. I have doubt. But the idea is so cool.
surely uou can just enter your details on screen?
