Crypto Swipers with Tap Plus install?

[Yeaux]

Question for you Crypto Pay users. I am fixing to move forward with the install at 2 of our 3 locations. I already have the Tap Plus units, but before I start with the install would you consider ordering and installing the swipe units with them as well? Pros and Cons of having both? TIA for your input!

After only 2 years we are leaving the swipers behind. Last week we saw a girl trying to tap one of our remaining swipers and left (because, of course it didn't work).
It kills me to watch people swipe their card the wrong way 10 times in a row, swipe too slow, not swipe it all the way through, or see that a unit hasn't had a transaction in a few days only to find out it's been vandalized with a pocketknife or saw blade.
TapPlus is what I'm looking for, no screens, no buttons, no mechanical interface.
My only gripe with TapPlus is that we can't use the QR code reader to provide a video feed from the bay or snap a photo of the user during the transaction.

At one of my brothers car washes he removed all the swipers and install just the Tap plus. It's been about 2 months and so far it's worked great.

I can’t think of a single reason to do swipers anymore. Most site are taking them out. Tap alone is the only way to go. Put them on everything at your site that takes money. Almost no one has cash anymore-plus your ticket average will go up. It’s a lot easier to tap that card than feed a bunch of weak bills in the acceptor

Fleet accounts is one reason. I love the cryptopay fleet program and have a lot of accounts so unless they figure out how to do it with the tap plus using the camera or tap cards im still gonna keep the swipers. Also some older folks are always stuck in there ways. Cant blame them. Small percentage im sure but im not letting money walk out the door because they cant swipe. I got tap plus on all vacs but I use swipers and taps in bays. Once the card companies stop putting strips on the cards for swiping I will be all tap but until then ill accept any way to charge someones card. Doesn't matter to me if they tap or swipe.

True that on the fleets. Didn’t think about that,don’t have any locations using fleet accounts on SS or Vacs.
