- msbarnett 14y agoAh. Payment systems in Canada are significantly different than in the US. Swipe has been on the way out for years, here.
- clarky07 14y agowhy the downvotes? I was surprised that swipe isn't in other places, asked where he was located, and then said where I'm located. What's the problem with that?
- mikeash 14y agoI downvoted because the answer to your initial question is in the title of this post, and your wording was terribly provincial while not really contributing to the discussion. Just since you asked.
- clarky07 14y agoI was asking a question, and "Canada" is a big place. That is not the answer to the question. Also, just because the article is about Canada, doesn't mean we can't discuss payment processing around the world. There are people in this thread asking for support in Europe and Australia, there is no reason for me to expect every comment is pertaining to Canada. Edit: also, while I'm not from Canada, I was there this summer and I had no problems getting my card swiped. Everywhere I needed to buy something took my card and swiped it. Hence my surprise.
