About this app

Square Point of Sale is the customisable point-of-sale app that enables you to sell anywhere and in any way your customers want to buy.

Use the Point of Sale app with a Square Reader to allow customers to pay with contactless from all major credit and debit cards or touch-free using payment links, QR codes, Apple Pay, Google Pay or by manually entering their card details.

Issue and track invoices directly from the app. Customise your invoices, set up weekly or monthly recurring invoices from your Dashboard and let customers pay online with a credit or debit card. You can even save their card details on file for automatic payments on recurring invoices.

Connect your Point of Sale app to a free Square Online Store to accept orders for pickup and delivery.

Funds are transferred fast – see money in your bank account as soon as the next business day.

Use your point-of-sale system to keep track of sales and inventory in real time, manage items and employees and view analytics about your business.

All this with no long-term contracts or surprise fees.

Ratings and reviews

I'm using the free plan as I'm just a hobbyist. face to pace payments using personal phone as a reader works really well. The only downside i have noticed is the need to remove ph case. The app shows reports of online payments, cash, square fees and gst amounts clearly. perfect for market stalls. the free website is very basic but a good starting site, some issues with syncing of store items especially if you like to work via a pH. It can take days to sync properly, so best to work of a P/C.

Used to be fantastic, but lately I've been having a lot of problems getting my phone to sync up with the card reader, and have had to manually entre card numbers which takes longer, and have lost some sales. I also cannot load photos into the items categories, which makes text a bit pointless, so I have to just type everything in again manually, other than a few specially items I know well. (I've taken screen shoot to a show if tech can help).

Having used a Square device for several years, it has now stopped working on all phones. Square have told me that my device is not compatible. Hmmm. Having worked for several years if I choose to use this payment system into the future I have to upgrade all three of my phones. Outrageous!! Be very careful if you choose to purchase this device, if it is not on the compatibility list it may stop working unexpectedly if they change their software. Don't expect any support to solve the problem from Square either. Disgraceful customer service and problem solving.
