I find the Square platform to be Unintuitive and Overly Complicated

I find the Square platform to be the most unintuitive platform. I do a lot of editing for websites on a lot of different platforms, but Square has always been difficult. What makes it so is that it seems like the back end is constantly changing/being updated and the help documents don't line up to the new changes. It makes it extremely frustrating when one needs to make one small (and theoretically easy) change that takes well over an hour to find how to change it. I actively tell people to not use this platform.

Thank you for taking the time to share this. We’re genuinely sorry to hear how frustrating your experience has been.

We understand how challenging it is when the interface changes frequently and help documentation doesn’t reflect what you’re seeing in the Dashboard. When you’re trying to make what should be a quick, straightforward update, it shouldn’t take an hour to track down the right setting. That’s not the experience we want for anyone, especially users who regularly work across multiple website platforms.

We’re continuously improving the platform, but we recognize that updates need to be clearer, better communicated, and fully aligned with our support documentation. Feedback like yours highlights where that alignment is falling short.

We appreciate you being candid about your experience. Usability and clarity are critical, and we take this kind of feedback seriously.

We’re sorry to hear you feel this way. We understand how upsetting unexpected charges can be, and we take concerns about fees very seriously.

Square does not take funds without explanation. All processing fees and any applicable charges are outlined in our pricing and can be reviewed in your account statements. If something doesn’t look right, our support team can walk through the transaction details with you to clarify exactly what happened.

We know trust is important when choosing a payment provider, and we’re sorry this experience left you frustrated.

Small business start up advice that will really help you…

They once again are raising instant transfer fees on top of existing hiked up fees, risky account holds/freezes, poor customer support, higher costs for high-volume businesses, limited customization and advanced features, potential security issues due to its aggregator model, and dependency on internet connectivity, it claims to be great for small business and that is not the case. My advice for small business start ups fund a good bank that has free merchant services and take the time to set that up. It will save you alot of money in the end and bonus there is actually a person you can sit and talk to if you run into problems or questions.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about fees, support, and account management. We understand these are critical concerns for small businesses watching every dollar.

While Square works well for many businesses, you're right that it's not the perfect fit for everyone. Different businesses have different needs, volumes, and support preferences. While Square doesn't provide face to face in-person support, we do offer phone, messaging and email support.

We appreciate your feedback and wish you success with your business.

My account was compromised and square sent the scammer $3000 in a disputed scam claim. Dealing with square employees has been horrendous! They won’t give you any help or information. Everyone i spoke to kept denying me access to a supervisor or manager.
I was promised a response regarding the issue after 1-2 business days. Nothing after a week!! Everyone I call I get the same answerers “ they will call or email you within 1-2 business days… that timeframe is up a week ago and still can’t get answers. Completely unprofessional and unethical company! Beware!!

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience, especially given how serious and stressful an account compromise and disputed funds situation can be. We understand how important timely updates and clear communication are, and it’s concerning to hear that you’ve felt left without answers.

For privacy and security reasons, we’re not able to discuss account-specific details here, but we do want to make sure your case is properly reviewed. Please reach out to our Account Services team directly and reference your existing case number, so they can provide an update. If you’re unsure of your case number, you can provide your business name and the email associated with your account when contacting support, so they can locate it.

We appreciate you bringing this forward and the opportunity to help ensure your concerns are addressed.

Easy and Helpful!

One year in with Square and no complaints! I'm sure there are cheaper processing fees out there, but square makes everything SO easy integrating payroll/tips/ making it so easy to set up POS, and more.

Square’s processing fees are all-inclusive, which means there are no hidden fees for things like different card brands, account cancellations, or payment disputes. We aim to keep pricing simple and transparent, so you can focus on running your business with confidence.

Thanks again for being with us this past year, we’re excited to continue supporting you!

I’m glad they assisted me when my account was locked

I’m glad they assisted me when my account was locked over a security issue that wasn’t an issue. Most importantly they offered me a loan at a time when my business needed it most for our advertising.

Thank you.

Accept credit cards without any equipment or minimum

Nice and easy to use to accept credit cards without any equipment or minimums. Using the card reader will reduce charges and could make it easier as well. They also have other services like BillPay which I'm trying out now!
