Also It works with Mac OS. It should install automatically all necessary drivers for that. If not, they are available from Gemalto website. **Q: I'm looking for a digi tacho card reader that will work with my android phone for keeping track of my driving hours etc. Will this do the job?** A: I'm sorry, but this device does not work with Android devices. It has full size USB port and you can't even connect it to smartphones with Micro USB ports **Q: Is this a one off payment item or is there a monthly subscription ?** A: One time payment. You are buying this device and keeping it for yourself. Just a reminder that there is no software included. Windows itself can't read the smart cards. Usually card issuer provides correct software that is needed for your card. There isn't any universal software. Each card has different purpose, therefore different software. ## Frequently Bought Together - SCROY IDBridge CT30 USB Smart Card Reader Writer CAC DOD ID Army Military Government Corporate Medical eID Contact Chip IC Common Access Card Gemalto Thales - Taglio PIVKey C910 Certificate Based PKI Smart Card for Authentication and Identification, Dual Interface Contact/Contactless Smart Card, Supports Windows PIV Drivers, Standard ISO. - Identiv SCR3310v2.0 USB Smart Card Reader --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/54084808-idbridge-ct30-usb-smart-card-reader-writer-for-national-id](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/54084808-idbridge-ct30-usb-smart-card-reader-writer-for-national-id) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
