Overall Satisfaction with Square for Retail

We use Square to checkout in person point of sale. It helps us take card payments with fair transaction fees and makes it very convenient for our customers and users in turn. Not only does Square offer an easy to use physical reader, but the person doing the point of sale transaction can also run the card number using the app.

Pros

  • Point of sale transactions
  • Ease of use and convenient payment method for customers
  • Receipts and transaction records for the business and customers
  • Multiple ways to pay
  • Fair transaction fees

Cons

  • Add support for Apple Pay and other contactless payment methods faster
  • Point of sale checkout features
  • Accounting, transaction reporting, and receipts feature
  • Square has helped us be able to grow revenue substantially thanks to convenient payments
  • Square has allowed us to improve our recording and accounting
  • Stripe
Stripe is more suited for internet or online order forms and businesses for which it integrates. It works well and same as Square with similar fees. Stripe however does not send a physical card reader by default and is not as large of a company. We chose Square due to the integrations it offers, ease of use, and familiarity clients have with existing card readers to make them more comfortable.
