Square payment is the best service
Square has made it easy to operate my buissness. The reports, statistics, and the recorded transaction calender, make it easy to check last years sales
So easy to use lots of potential for the other things that they offer
I have to brag on square and their dispute department. I run a non profit theater and we have had two incidents where someone tried to say we charged their cars fraudulently to get their money back. Both situations the person ordered the tickets online themselves and received their tickets via email. Both times the person showed up to our theater and showed their tickets. The first time, it was paid through our website payout department. They gave the money to the card holder despite our evidence that the person actually came and saw the show. We then started using Square. When the second person made the false claim, I sent evidence and was worried the same thing would happen. But Square actually reviewed the evidence and saw they they were lying and decided in our favor! This is unusual as a very high percentage of chargeback claims automatically go to the card holder regardless of the evidence that they charged the card themselves and they got the product. It took a while... But it was worth the wait! I am so thankful that square protected me and my business against the false claim and I will stick with them!! Thank you Square!!
Running a small business can be extremely stressful and time consuming. Square has given me so much peace of mind. From the cash register to running payroll! Couldn't do it without them!

I decided to switch to Square after I had non stop issues with SumUp and I can’t express how brilliant the customer service is with Square! I ran into some issues with verification on my ID and account, whenever I’d try to verify my I’d get taken to purchase hardware, I emailed square and got a response within hours. (same day) I decided to give them a call too as I needed the terminal to be up and running soon, waited about a minute and I got put through. They fixed the problem almost straight away and now my account is back to normal. As for the ID verification, it took less than 5 minutes and I was verified. I couldn’t recommend them enough!
Super convenient! No side quests.
