    I'm an attorney and small business owner looking for a credit card/epayment system to use for my business. It seems there were more options available for my old Bold. I'd like something that comes with a credit card swiper or otherwise allows me to take credit card payments right from my phone. Any recommendations?

    Sign up for square reader. Activate the dongle on a android/ios device than side load the android app on the BB10 device and you have a card reader

    I have square on my Z10 and works well... and its free for the swipe. Google square and sign up they'll send it to you. Then search the forum here for some good android payment apps to side load.

    I'm sorry but as secure as BlackBerry is I definitely don't trust anything banking related being a non native app especially side loaded.

    It's already proven that android apps can run in the background and theoretically someone running this side loaded square app could have a malicious app that steals the card number.

    I wouldn't swipe my card with that system.

    Correct, but the lack of financial apps is a little frustrating. Some sort of money transfer method would be nice.

    Lack of apps, side load, OS leaks. Seems to me when a phone is released it should work. I realized how much I missed quality apps today! Yes I knew about the app situation when I got the phone, but I didn't realize how crappy some of the available apps are. Z 10 goes back tomorrow and I return to my faithful iPhone.
