Even now, they can use a Square wireless terminal and you wouldn't know if its hooked up to their personal iPhone or what.

Absolutely true.... just seems like a mounted device like they usually are seem more 'official'.

Square and similar terminals aren’t mounted anymore - the vast majority I see these days are wireless wedges that use Bluetooth or some other wireless protocol.

There's a big difference between something that looks like a payment terminal and what appears to just be a personal mobile phone though.
