## Reviews

### "On the Go Payments System you can carry on your phone" — 4.0/5

> **Chris** | *18 March 2026* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's my go to Point of Sale system for my mobile and web. I am able to use this on the go, and access it when I need to, no matter where I am. The debit card attached to the account means instant access to funds when needed.
> 
> **Cons**: The swipe fees are in line with other payment providers, but I wished there were different levels based on total sales. Like the more you uesd it, the lower the fees.  The storefront isn't as dynamic or customizable as I'd like for it to be.
> 
> I've used this POS for over five years, and honestly, it's great. It offers a debit card tied to the account, that allows me to have instant access to funds, and if I use the transfer option, it takes one day to reach my bank account, or instant for another fee. They also offer a line of credit based on amounts processed, which is an added advantage.

### "My Square nightmare" — 1.0/5

> **John** | *11 December 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have been using Square for several years. I liked the simplicity of using it, although Square charges the same fee for debit cards as for credit cards and is a point higher if you have to manually process the charge.
> 
> **Cons**: They will not refund processing fees for mistaken charges (see below). My efforts to get a reversal of the fees assessed fell on deaf ears.

> My Square nightmare:&#10;I have been using Square for several years. I liked the simplicity of using it, although Square charges the same fee for debit cards as for credit cards and is a point higher if you have to manually process the charge. I have been able to accept that. But after what happened to me last week, I have to speak out.&#10;&#10;Last week I processed a charge. The correct amount of the charge was $422.57, but the amount that was processed was $42,257.33 ($422.57 plus two 3s). I can’t say with certainty that I didn’t somehow hit the 3 key a couple times by accident, but I don’t think I did and I know I didn’t intend to. When I saw the amount that was actually charged I IMMEDIATELY REVERSED THE CHARGE  by issuing a refund for a “mistaken charge.” (The reversal was processed 4 minutes after the charge.) Then I went back and processed the correct amount. The next morning I got an email from Square informing me that it was taking $687.41 from my biz checking account in order to cover the processing fees from the refunded charge (my Square account had a balance that Square also took, a total of $1,098.69). At first I assumed it was just part of the process and it would be refunded to my account. When it didn’t happen I contacted customer service. It took a while to reach customer service and when I did I went through 6 levels of online CSRs rejecting my request that the charge be reversed. I was told that the processing charge was not refundable and there was nothing they could do about it. I appealed until I couldn’t appeal any more (which is why I went through 6 levels). Without exception everyone was sympathetic to my situation, without exception no one did anything to make it right.&#10;&#10;All that is left to me now is to share my horror story as far and wide as possible to warn other small businesses about this horrible, unethical business practice. I’m sure I’m not the only one this has happened to; don’t let it happen to you.

### "The Point of Selling is found in Square Point of Sale" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 March 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As part of the Square suite of apps and services, I liked that Point of Sale provided a digital platform and the means for me to pay using my cards or digital wallets, removing the need for paper or extra hassle at the cashier.
> 
> **Cons**: I didn't like the integration and confusion of tipping in regards to multi-card payments and other technical formalities of the service.
> 
> Overall, Point of Sale has been a great way for me to pay quickly, conveniently, and interactively up front using a multitude of digital processes. While it removes some of the human element, I feel that it's become a more convenient purchase system.

### "Ok to use, not difficult" — 4.0/5

> **Emmeline** | *15 July 2025* | Construction Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was easy to use. You don't need an attachment or a device to  link to your phone.You just use your phone
> 
> **Cons**: They held my money for 3 days after the initial deposit. I was not aware that that would happen. There was no training on it
> 
> It was good. Other than the fact that there was no training for it. So I didn't know what to expect everything was okay
