It will also allow purchases via the new Square Card Case as well as the Square Card Reader.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Square Card Case features purchase history, payment options and live information downloaded from a businesses Square Register. This will allow consumers to see their entire purchase history with an individual business. The payment options will allow a buyer to walk up to a business using the Square Register in their store, open the Square Card Case app on the iPhone and tap on the tab button to open a payment option. Then the seller can simply charge the item to the person by tapping on a button on the register.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThere are four main features of the Card Case app: Tabs, Directory, Menus and Receipts.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nTabs allows you to set up a payment option for your favorite places.

Receipts stores receipts for all of your digital purchases made with the Card Case app.\r\n\r\nSquare is currently rolling out the Square Register to 50 merchants throughout the US in various major markets.\r\n\r\nDorsey mentioned during his presentation that Square has shipped 500,000 Square readers and processed 1 million transactions in May.
