We are in Australia
We are in Australia. Have been using square for 5 years. We found the POS simple to use. Money side works really well. No issues at all.

Easy to set up, instant work and evidence of payment
I was looking for a phone based payment method that I didnt have to get over complicated, for a weekend market side hustle.

Thanks for sharing your experience! We love supporting weekend markets and small side businesses, so it’s great to hear Square gave you a simple, phone-based solution without the complexity. Wishing you lots of success at your markets, and we’re here if you ever need support!

Thanks so much for the great review! We're really happy to know that Square has been easy to use.
They hold your takings.
Due to apparent changes in legislation, the Square team ceases to use their common sense in approving new customers. We are experiencing 3 weeks of takings being held by Square atm with no prospect of our funds being released back to us any time soon. If you want to risk funds being held. Go with these guys. Better off going through your bank. Hands down.

Reply from Square Australia
We’re really sorry to hear about this experience. We understand how stressful it is to have funds held, especially when you’re relying on that revenue to operate your business. Waiting weeks without clarity is understandably frustrating.
In some cases, account approvals and fund holds are tied to regulatory, compliance, or risk requirements that we’re legally obligated to follow. That said, we know that doesn’t make it easier when it impacts your cash flow, and we recognize how difficult this feels from your side.
Not Good & Good
hardware is great and easy set up!
support from a person is a 0.
cost of transaction (EFTPOS) high - say they will offer volume discount but impossible to get.
Great for start up / small business under T/O under $300K

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear the hardware has been easy to set up and that it’s been a good fit for startups and smaller businesses.
We’re sorry to hear you’ve been disappointed with access to person-to-person support. When you need help, it should feel accessible and responsive, and we understand how frustrating it is when that’s not the case.
We also hear your concerns about transaction costs and volume discounts. Pricing should feel transparent and attainable, and feedback like yours is important as we continue reviewing how we support growing businesses.

Easy to set up and use
Buying and setting up the square pos is easy and works wonderfully. We first started with the free version from our phone but upgraded to the reader. It wasn’t that expensive and has been well worth the purchase. The phone version reads from phones very well but doesn’t read actual cards very well. Definitely consider the reader! We also bought the dock and are very happy with that was well.

Thank you for sending over such a positive review! We really appreciate it.
Square is great if you don't want to be paid for years.
Square competely failed me as a provider - repeatedly withheld payments from clients, refused to refund clients and then withheld my payments illegally for 2 years without any communication.
Repeated attempts to contact Square Australia and Square.com were ignored.

Reply from Square Australia
We’re very sorry to hear about this experience and understand how distressing it is to feel left without communication or access to funds for an extended period of time. We know how critical timely payouts and clear communication are for any business, and we recognize how unacceptable this situation feels from your perspective.
In some cases, accounts and funds may be held due to regulatory, compliance, or risk-related reviews, but we understand that a lack of clear updates or responses only adds to the frustration. That’s not the experience we want for our sellers, and we’re sorry this has caused such ongoing stress.
Your feedback is important, and we encourage you to continue reaching out to Square Support through official channels so your case can be reviewed and any available options clearly explained. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, even when it’s been a difficult one.

Very easy set up. Ability to set up as a non business for a hobbyist who used first time at a market stall. Simple way to collect electronic payments. Highly recommend

Square’s been a game-changer for my small business
Square has been a game-changer for my small business. It would’ve been easier if could use the dashboard app alone to create website rather than going back and forth to square online but was still easy enough in the end to navigate and get my small business up and running :)

Format is confusing and time consuming
Format is confusing and time consuming. The cost is too much for a casual user. I downloaded this si could sell stuff once a month at a market and it cost me more to pay for the app than i made.
