Hey I’m not sure if this is the right community for this but it seemed applicable, let me know if I need to delete!

I am seeking anyone with a Square brand magstripe reader (not contactless, magstripe specifically) willing to run a quick test for me. It’s just:

Connect Square to computer
Open any text editor
run any card’s magstripe (except a chipped payment card. Costco, non-chipped card, gas station rewards card, etc will work fine) through
Does it type out the data from two or three tracks in the text editor, the way traditional USB readers do?

Thank you for your time reading this, and double thanks for anyone willing to test. This is as close as I can get to trying before buying lol.
