We are able to process payments with a premium feel product, without the ongoing costs that many other POS systems have. The pay-as-we go type structure is flexible for our nonprofit. We do not bill frequently enough to justify a monthly fee, and so this option has been incredible. It was super easy to make our own, customizing the products, prices, receipts, and options at the click of a button. It integrates powerfully with other tools that use. This makes sales online, over the phone, through invoice, or on-site at events a breeze, and the platform is easy enough that anyone on my team can use it with their user/team options. > > **Cons**: We have faced some challenges when out on the site with connectivity of card readers, particularly those that connect via Bluetooth to an iPad. Once connected they are quick and easy to use, however the initial connection during a period can be tough. We are an infrequent use organization, since we accept payments with this platform during events, it could be months without using and I think this contributes to the difficulty versus it connecting to the device every day. I do find the iPad layout to be a bit more clunky, feeling like an enlarged iPhone layout versus its own dedicated design. > > Square has been very positive for us. We appreciate the safety/security of a large name, trusted brand, without the high cost that can often come along with that name. The cost for their equipment is reasonable. They are so frequently used that finding support is very easy as everyone I know uses them. ----- ### "Great value, good service" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *26 January 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the joined-up card reader and online payment facilities, especially with free website. By paying a bit more our members can login and check their past and coming orders. > > **Cons**: Inability to accept bookings for later payment (online or via card reader) for things like club events > > Easy to set up the payment system with card readers and then link it to the free website. Good support. Great payment facility - our members far prefer to pay online in advance or by card on the spot ----- ### "Really good for some uses" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *29 June 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Allows for much more flexibility for accepting payment, including Apple Pay and other cards. Not difficult to learn either. > > **Cons**: Sometimes the sensor is not able to be handed over, if there is a window in the way then it is almost impossible to use. > > Overall useful, but has enough flaws to keep us from fully using it at all of the checkout places in the business. ----- ### "Not ready for any online store other than simple boutiques or resturants." — 2.0/5 > **John** | *28 July 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The design is intriguing. The website is driven directly from the POS data so there are no separate "product records". This makes inventory sync automatic but the backbone of the site is subject to the quality of the POS data. > > **Cons**: Too many things to list fully. There is no reporting or management capability of images except one-at-a-time. For large image repositories, this is death. There is no built in under-construction concept so you have to build a fake page and then disable navigation to work on a dev site. To preview it, you have to turn on nav and preview while editing a live site. Large data sets are hopeless with their tools. Support is terrible. You get passed from department to department and often they can't verify your profile to help you. There is no way to build a content page that isn't a product record. Overall the development tools are not ready for prime time. Square sells you on using variations... beware. They have tons of limitations. > > Very poor. Even though I'm an admin on our account, for two years Square has not been able to verify me when I contact them for support. Even our store \[sensitive content hidden\] can't get help when he calls. ----- ### "Time consuming setup" — 3.0/5 > **Jessica** | *16 May 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most was the ease of use and the ability to charge my customers properly. This is a great product. > > **Cons**: What I liked least was the time it took to verify my business. I submitted all the paper work and I had to resubmit multiple times. ----- Page: 1 / 15\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/199711/square-online?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/199711/square-online) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
