All I want to do is capture the cc data as it comes off the card's stripe (as Colin says... converted into simple data through Rev), encrypt this data, then send it somewhere for processing and deposit into my account... with a result returned. I'd prefer avoiding any additional setup or coding (such as the need for server processing on my end). I don't care if it costs more to keep it simple. My application is not cost sensitive.

Will Stripe fit this bill? I can't quite tell after an initial review of the site.

Thanks.
Richard

But can Stripe integrate with card swiping hardware and provide the

That's the benefit of using Stripe in this situation. Stripe takes the

 From their FAQ,

Why is Stripe better than the other options I'm
considering?<https://stripe.com/us/help/faq#why-is-stripe-better>
Glad you asked! Here are some reasons that others have chosen Stripe:

    - Stripe is the only payments service you'll need. You won't need to
    find and work with a separate merchant account provider, gateway,
    subscriptions manager, or any other piece of the legacy payments
industry
    puzzle.


    - An elegant, powerful API makes it quick and easy to integrate with
    Stripe. (See what developers are saying<
https://twitter.com/#!/search/stripe%20api>
    .)


    - Complete freedom to create the payment experience you want—your
site
    or app, your workflow, your brand.


    - You can charge your users however you want: one-time purchases,
    subscriptions, metered billing, and event-based charges are all
    straightforward with our flexible API.


    - Competitive, crystal-clear pricing. We charge you one rate for
each
    successful transaction. There are no additional charges for failed
    transactions, American Express cards, international cards, stored
cards, or
    recurring payments. It's easy to understand, easy to project, and
without
    any surprises. (More about pricing <https://stripe.com/help/pricing
.)


    - We shoulder the PCI compliance burden by ensuring that you never
    need to handle sensitive card data. (Learn more about PCI and our
    approach <https://stripe.com/us/help/faq#pci-compliance>.)

Credit card swipers just act like a keyboard input. You would listen

the keys being pressed, build up the data, then when the return
character
comes in you process the text.

I need a way to process a swiped credit card through Rev. The user

interacting via a touch screen (no keyboard or mouse). Just need to

the card info... no address info. The card swipe unit is attached to a

public),
so the whole process must be secure.


There is a bit more to credit card processing if you want to be PCI
compliant.  In short, the swiper would provide you an encrypted
transaction.  You then pass this on to a PCI compliant processor.  They
can
decrypt the record and respond to you with a yes or no on the
transaction.
  You need to have a gateway to a processor and a merchant account to
receive the funds.
