Would you ever trust anyone to swipe your card in a phone app?

I've seen commercials for a gizmo that attaches to a cell phone that can swipe credit/debit cards for your business.

Even if I was at a trusted business, I'm sorry, but you're not swiping my card in your cell phone.

Would you do it??

I would. 15

    I already have, and had no problems. :)

    Artists at conventions have taken to using them so they can accept card as well as cash. I used my card to get piercings added onto my ear hat. :P

    I do this really regularly, because a lot of businesses use this.

    I already have.

    The app allows small businesses to accept credit cards. Especially at kiosks where there isn't a regular register set up.

    If you don't wish to use it that's fine. Just make sure you have enough cash on hand to buy what you want.

    With as many people who jail-break their phones and stuff like that, I'm sure it's not the safest decision to make... Count me out.

    No, I wouldn't. In our pressing need for everything to be instant, easy, painless, we shouldn't lose sight of other important factors like security.
