Can one Paypal Here card reader on two different phones?

My wife and I share a Paypal account and we both need to be able to take credit card payments on our phones.  Can we by one Paypal Here magnetic card reader and use it on the one account?  Thank!

The triangle PayPal Here reader is NOT account-spcific and it can be shared.

Since it is free, however, you should each get your own.  I'm not sure you can set up the PayPal Here app without getting a reader from PayPal.  Did you already set up the PayPal Here app for both of your accunts?

Thank you for your comments.  No, I just bought the Paypal Here triangle reader today and haven't installed the app yet on a phone.  There really isn't a reason for us both to have one as it will be either her or I using it.  We'll never need to be in two places both needing to use it.

I'm guessing when I install the app on my phone it will ask me to enter a serial number from the triangle reader to activate.  Can my wife install the app also and enter the same serial number from the reader, hence we're both using the same reader?  (If I'm understanding how the set up works)

Thanks!

Thre is no serial number to report.  All readers are the same.

As long as you get the PayPal app working on both devices, then you should be OK sharing.

On the the other hand, you can get one from by mail from PayPa; it's nice to have a backup in case one fails.

Okay, great!  Thank you for the insight!

Yeah, you're right . . . it probably wouldn't hurt to have an extra, seeing as how they're only $10.

Thanks again!

The used to be free when you ordered from your PayPal account.
