MagTek MINI MSR USB Keyboard Emulator

The MagTek MINI MSR is a compact handheld card reader that connects via USB and operates as a keyboard emulator. It captures data from magnetic stripe tracks 1, 2 and 3 for point-of-sale and identification workflows. The device requires no custom driver installation on standard operating systems.

Tracks 1, 2 and 3 magnetic stripe support

This reader is built specifically for magnetic stripe cards using tracks 1, 2 and 3. It cannot read chip-based EMV cards or contactless NFC tokens. Buyers who need to process chip-and-PIN or tap-to-pay transactions must select a different terminal.

Questions about this item

What does the three-track capability mean when I swipe a card?

The reader captures data from tracks 1, 2 and 3 on the magnetic stripe, so it can pull the cardholder name, account number and any additional encoded fields in one swipe.

What does the USB keyboard emulation limit in practice?

It sends the card data as keystrokes, so the host sees a standard HID keyboard and no custom driver is required; the only limit is the typing speed the USB bus allows.
