Square, which went public last week, has launched a new reader that allows merchants to accept mobile payments over Samsung. The company is currently only working with 100 local businesses; however, a bigger rollout is expected at a later date. Although it seems Square is only promoting Apple Pay as a compatible digital wallet, the reader also works with Android Pay and NFC Pay, as well as with EMV chip cards for enhanced secure payments.
