How cool it that!!
http://www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/national......t_cards/ Headline: Busker can now take credit cards Music fans will be able to reward a London busker by credit card, rather than throwing cash into a hat in a drive to promote "contactless" technology and raise money for charity Ok - I know - it's for a charity, but just think of the possibilities..... |

I gave it a half a second of thought and came up with tracking my hats, losing a percentage on each transaction, and the loss of the beautiful smell of money.
You know why don't act naive.

Been taking credit cards for years.
Also stock certificates, yacht and airplane titles, Krugerands, BMW keys, travellers checks, pawn tickets, gold bouillion, estate jewelry,... It would be cool to have a card scanner attached to the table.

How do you take the credit card without taking the whole wallet?

Those of you with an iPhone, iPad, or Android device might looks into Square if you're serious about this. Looks like a cool device (assuming you can convince someone to let you swipe their card).
