General question about card readers

Will one from one bank work with another bank? (Stupid question maybe)
I have 2 card readers, but not one for Natwest yet. I have ordered one but was wondering if the other ones would work. I don't need to make a payment today so haven't tried it , but am a little worried theirs won't arrive in time.

    I've used my Nationwide card reader for my Natwest account.

    Surely you have a spare pound in the account and could try it? If I was a "little worried" that's what I'd do.


    The answer to your question, however, is possibly...if your request has been actioned by NatWest.
