SquareUp Payment Method Pros and Cons

Don't use their service. They deactivate your account at any time without reason. Their decision is final. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I Wouldn't Recommend. We're a web-based company. We provide 100% legal services like SEO, Web design, Web development, Graphic design, Video editing, content writing, virtual assistant, etc. We open an account to receive payments. We have completed 110+ transactions by Squareup. We haven't got any dispute.

But suddenly they deactivate the account. We have tried contacting their customer agent via live chat but they disabled this feature. They disabled "ask the community" also.

We emailed them that we believe we didn't violate any terms.

If you need anything to verify our business please let us know. We'll be happy to assist you. But didn't want the document and didn't back the account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SquareUp is an all-in-one payment processing solution for small businesses. It provides one of the most simple and straightforward online user experiences compared to other payment processing solutions. They offer countless additional features, including invoicing, employee and inventory management. Other than that it also provides various payment methods, such as credit/debit cards, gift cards, apple pay and google pay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike about it. Although, their customer support should be lil more responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to access payment history and issue refunds to customers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Turning off ordering is unreasonably difficult to navigate. Service will not remind you to re-engage orders if order taking has been offline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it enabled me to take credit cards at my small business. The rates were very reasonable when compared to other options. It was nice to have a digital record of transactions as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was frustrating to find the dongle to attach to my phone. It would easily get lost. Also, I prefer the system I currently have, which embeds credit card processing into my practice management software. Clients enter the card info themselves, which saves me time.

I love that Square sends us a free card reader for new customers. Super cheap card processing payment fees. Collect payments via card swipe with no internet and process payment when you have internet access. Love the reports how it is set up and I can easily connect it to my woocommerce store.

There isn't anything that I've seen that I disliked so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

NOTHING it was a complete waste of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We went through the onboarding process and we used the services. We were able to use the card processing services but Square had been holding our funds. They said Square needed more financial documents to authorize the transaction. We provided the documents but no response for a week..

Later, we got a note they could not support our business needs and they will deposit the funds into our account within 2 business days, probably because we are a tour operator and the pandemic places us in a high-risk business. Why they did tell us that before?? Customer service rating is 0. The account rep was clueless.

Then they sent us another note a week later saying our funds will be held for 90 days with no explanation. This is not a 5* star company and we moved on to Stripe. Square has terrible customer service and poor crisis management. I wish we had never contacted this bad company. If you choose them be AWARE at your own risk they might hold your funds with no plausible reason .

Nomatter where I am, in the store or at a flea market, I can plug in my card reader to my phone and make my sale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downside is processing fees but compared to other payment software it's not too bad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Square is seamless in that it provides not only a payment system but an E-Commerce platform to sell your goods and services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I cannot think of anything immediate other than the style interface for the E-Commerce platform is not feature rich..yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it to be extremely user friendly for any level of commerce Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a higher fee to let in a card if you are not local to your customer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Square up is the ability to create static (store "like") and dynamic services (appointments). The static service items can be synced with a direct purchase. Here is a great example: https://checkout.square.site/buy/66PVOZFPCPYXWSJDDT6J7OQR. Or you can embed a list of services appointments or individual services which seems to be less confusing for our customers.

Our visitors seem to have no issues making payments.

We typically receive out payments within 24 hours of payment. Love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there were an easier way to link service appointments without embedding them (like in this example https://checkout.square.site/buy/66PVOZFPCPYXWSJDDT6J7OQR). Embedding a service into a website can conflict with some web designs. So, it would be great to have the flexibility (much like the static service items) of just including a direct link to service appointments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
