Select model
The Levata MSR100 is a compact USB magnetic stripe card reader built for straightforward card-reading tasks. It connects to host devices via a USB interface and reads data from magnetic stripe cards using a single read head that conforms to ISO standards, transmitting that data directly to the connected system upon each swipe.
Key Features:
- The single read head design conforms to ISO standards, helping ensure consistent, reliable reads across the range of magnetic stripe cards those standards govern.
- USB connectivity means the MSR100 connects to any host device with a USB interface, removing the need for additional drivers or dedicated serial adapters in most deployments.
- Compatibility with both Windows PCs and Mac computers gives the MSR100 flexibility across mixed operating environments.
- The swipe-based operation transmits card data immediately upon swiping, keeping individual transactions short and reducing handling time at the point of interaction.
- A compact body measuring 34 x 100 x 30 mm keeps desk or counter space demands low, even where workspace is at a premium.
Single Read Head and ISO Compliance
At the core of the MSR100 is a single read head engineered to conform to ISO magnetic stripe standards. That compliance is what makes the reader broadly interoperable with the wide variety of magnetic stripe cards that circulate in commercial use, since cards issued to those standards can be expected to produce a clean, decodable read on each pass.
USB Connectivity Across Platforms
The MSR100 connects via USB and is compatible with any host device that carries a USB interface, including Windows PCs and Mac computers. Because the connection follows the USB standard, the reader integrates into existing setups without requiring specialised cabling or interface conversion hardware.
Compact Dimensions for Flexible Placement
The reader measures 34 mm wide, 100 mm in length and 30 mm in depth. Those dimensions mean it occupies a small footprint on a counter or desk, and the form factor makes repositioning straightforward if a workspace layout changes.
