Hello there, magnatechautogla. 

 

I'd like to verify what card reader you purchased so I can walk you through the specific steps on how to fix it. A compatibility issue might have caused he card reader to freeze and shuts out your QuickBooks Online account. You can look into our card readers and learn more about its compatibility

 

I also suggest disconnecting and reconnecting the reader to refresh the software. I'm attaching these articles that will give you more details on how card readers works with QuickBooks Online:

 

Feel free to get back to me if you have other questions. Any additional is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance and keep safe!

I am having same issue with the 2019 desktop version. Eevery time I try to receive a payment via reader it shuts down quickbooks. We have EMV connected via USB cable. I have to log back in process card and it works fine until I try to process another one.
