Let’s get you started with Square:

Download the Square Register app to your Apple or Android device, and create your free account. There are no contracts or long-term commitments.

To get started, you’ll need your legal name, date of birth, home address, phone number, and a valid form of government issued ID, such as a driver’s license, medicare card or passport.

You'll also have the option to link your bank account information so we know where to deposit your payments.

To accept a payment, plug Square Reader into your headphone jack.

Select what you’d like to sell or enter a custom amount, then insert the card into Square Reader’s secure Chip Card slot.

Your customer will be prompted to enter their PIN securely on screen

You can then choose to send your customer an email or SMS receipt. That’s it!
