Square Reviews

Reviews from entrepreneurs, publications, and regular folks.

From Whole Foods to one-of-a-kind boutiques, Square supports businesses of all types and sizes. Read what they have to say.

Processing pricing couldn’t be more straightforward.

Here it is: Swipe, dip, or tap? 2.6% + 10¢. Taking payments over the phone? 3.5% + 15¢. Unlike some of our competitors, we don’t have any hidden fees, contracts that lock you in, or other secret charges.

We’re serious about security.

We encrypt a transaction the moment it’s received, and it’s encrypted on our servers regardless of where it takes place—even on a public network. Square is PCI compliant and doesn’t store credit card data on your mobile device after a payment is processed.
