### "Reliable Payment Processing, Could use help with Customer Service"

May 20, 2020

4.0

This is a great one-stop-shop for business payments. It is a great tool for many who are starting out in retail.

Pros

It is easy to use and had been a trusted payment processor for businesses. This encompasses both a customer and a business owner.

Cons

The customer service could use more help. Sometimes issues cannot be immediately resolved. Also, fees may also be a financial burden for smaller businesses.

### "Get paid QUICK"

December 4, 2018

5.0

Pros

I use this for my real estate company to collect rent. It allows me to charge my tenants monthly and schedule invoices. They can keep track of their payments and when they made them and they can pay on their own time.

Cons

Fees are a bit high. I wish there was as way to get 1-1.5% instead of 2.75.

### "Convenient"

January 31, 2022

4.0

Pros

I like that you can take square on the go for payment processing. This allows me to take my sales outside of a typical brick-and-mortar store.

Cons

You need certain card readers to go offline, which sometimes is a hassle. Other than that, love this product.

### "Best payment option"

September 12, 2018

We use this to sell items from our e-commerce business to locals saving on shipping.

Pros

It’s easy to set up and use. Customers trust it since it’s in many shops.

I can only think of good things to say about square and have recommended it to many friends already. Even helping them set up accounts of their own.

### "Very user friendly program"

January 21, 2020

4.0

A majority of my clients pay by personal check or cash, but I do have occasions to take credit or debit cards, so I had to have a way to take care of those transactions simply. This software accomplished this.

Pros

Thes program was easy to understand, very practical to set up and use. I'm definitely not real tech savvy, so the ease of a program is paramount to me.

Cons

I really don't have any major complaints on the software, once I took the time to learn the set up and got comfortable with it.

Never had any issues with the software, great experience.

Pros

It makes taking card payments from customers easy and fast. I use this when customers don't have cash out fine out easier to use cards.

Cons

There really wasn't any thing wrong with this software I just switched to Paypal here because I liked it more.

### "A very square product"

October 12, 2021

3.0

Positive experience, was nice to be able to split the cost of using square payments.

Pros

When this product first came out it was a must have. The ability to take credit cards on a cell phone by using the headphone jack, what a grand idea!

Cons

Unfortunately most major manufacturers have gotten rid of the headphone jack in recent years so the original product cannot work as well as intended.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Square Payments

Square offered an actual hardware product instead of just software

### "one of many"

March 21, 2021

3.0

Overall square payments gets the job done, but at a cost. It's better then some others I've used only because you can take it with you.

Pros

The plug and slide card attachment is very handy. It's nice it was free and helps when I am at craft shows or on the road.

Cons

The price per transaction is a little high. Also the card reader sometimes is a bit touchy unless you have strong wifi.

Reason for choosing Square Payments

I chose Square over my other options because of the free card reader.

### "Not Good For Simple Transactions"

November 8, 2020

4.0

In the end did not like it. I wanted something simpler and an easy way to transfer money.

Pros

It has a lot of really cool features, automation, payroll options, and takes a lower cut them some other platforms during transactions.

Cons

When you start using a bunch of the features you get trapped in them and it's tough to get out. It gets complicated and challenging to just make a simple money transfer to someone.

August 15, 2019

3.0

I have since quit using Square.

Pros

It seemed like a good option for payment process for my side business.

Cons

HOWEVER... I have found I like Paypal and venmo apps much more. I also do not like the fee that is charged when transferring to bank.

February 27, 2019

4.0

Pros

So portable. Use on any device. Technology and payment processing at your fingertips, anywhere.

Cons

The rates are a bit higher for payment processing. It seems like they have enough users and buying power to allow for lower rates.

### "Great app for start ups and individuals for quick payments"

May 20, 2020

5.0

Overall happy with the device and software. We still use it time to time.

Pros

Easy to use. Not sure about the version we got, but the device that can be connected to the phone to swipe cards is the best. It was very helpful and came into handy for payments when at a small fair selling arts a crafts.

Cons

Nothing as such. Some people might probably complain about the interest rate or the commission Square payment takes for every transaction.

August 4, 2020

4.0

We have enjoyed using it. We have not used it a lot yet as we just started but look forward to using this more.

Pros

It is an easy to use product. It also makes processing payments easier than using other payment processing software. Clients seem to like that we are able to offer this.

Cons

There are processing fees that we have to calculate so we can inform our clients the amount that needs to be paid and that can be hard to calculate accurately.

We use Square as often as we can. No issues with the other service.

Pros

The most I like about this software is how easily it is to use. The app doesn't crash like most do these days.

Cons

I have no issues with Square. Everyone should down the app and at least give it a month try.
