Hello, and thank you for your inquiry, Timw3. I understand that you are interested in using the QuickBooks Online card reader with your MacBook Air, and I'm here to provide insights and ways to achieve it.

 

The GoPayment app is primarily designed for mobile devices and is unavailable for installation on laptops, ensuring optimal performance and ease of use when processing payments on the go. If you wish to use the card reader with your MacBook Air, please consider a third-party application compatible with both the card reader and your MacBook Air. This application will facilitate the connection and help manage payment processing smoothly. It's important to verify the compatibility and security features of the third-party application before integration to ensure a seamless and secure experience.

 

I recommend browsing the QuickBooks App Store to discover compatible apps that work with QuickBooks Online.
