Magnetic Stripe Card Reader 

If you have purchased the VisualGA Gift Card Inventory Module and you have gift cards which require the use of a magnetic stripe card reader, we recommend this device which can be purchased at Amazon.com.  Product inventory varies, so if this link or device is no longer available, search Amazon.com (or other retailer) first for "MSR90" (which is the model name of the recommended device) and if not available, search "usb magnetic card reader".  This device is very compact and could be velcro patched to your monitor or desk.  

Although a magnetic stripe card reader is not as quick (in our opinion!) as a barcode scanner, it certainly beats typing the card number!
