Small business owner

Small business owner. It’s not the first time we provide services and customer request money back from credit card and we have sent proof of service to square and they do not fight for your money. Customers have requested money back from credit card company and we have worked for free thanks to square.

We’re sorry to hear about this experience. We understand how frustrating it is to provide a service, submit proof, and still lose funds through a chargeback. Situations like this can feel especially unfair for service-based small businesses, where the work has already been completed.

Absolutely the worst company

Update after Square’s response:
Yes, the reason I felt unsupported was BECAUSE THE AGENT HUNG UP ON ME. Don’t do that to your customers, even if they call your company stupid. That’s my opinion. You need not get hurt feelings because of it.

Secondly, thanks for letting me know that you’re on Facebook and Instagram as well so I can leave a review there too. I only left on here & on X. More to come…

Original review:
Absolutely the worst company. Website said our password was wrong. It is not. Pressed button to receive email to reset the password anyway. Received no email (3x). Got on the phone with customer service who cried because I said their company was stupid so they hung up on us. Glad to be going elsewhere.

Very easy to use. Square provides a one stop shop for services or products. Fees for processing have increased and also gift card loading fees, but overall quality service.

I’ve been using Easy Setup, Terrible SEO and Unacceptable Price IncreasesWeebly / Square for…

I’ve been using Weebly / Square for over 10 years. It’s easy to use and works well if you want to build a website with a simple drag-and-drop (box-style) system. For beginners, that part is fine.

However, there are many design issues that don’t work cleanly or consistently. Yes, you can edit the code, but without solid coding knowledge, that’s unrealistic for most users.

The worst part—and the main reason I’m giving Square only one star—is SEO. You cannot properly assign title tags, which are essential for Google search visibility. This used to be a basic requirement and is still critical for small businesses.

Another major issue is pricing and transparency. A 2-year plan jumped from $85 to over $255, without any warning emails or notifications. The amount was simply charged automatically to my credit card. That is unacceptable.

Customer support is poor. Responses often take close to a week, and when they finally reply, the answers are usually generic and not helpful.

Recently, login issues have become a serious problem. At the moment, logging in only works reliably with Chrome—a browser I deliberately avoid because of its aggressive data tracking.

On top of that, you can only download your website as a .zip file, but you cannot upload it again. That makes leaving the platform unnecessarily difficult and feels like intentional lock-in, not customer service.

Overall: easy to start, but frustrating and limiting in the long run. I would not recommend Weebly / Square to anyone who cares about SEO, transparency, or long-term control over their website.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We take your concerns seriously, especially around SEO capabilities, pricing transparency, support response times, and data portability. You're right that these are critical issues for small business owners, and we're actively working to improve in each of these areas. We apologize for the unexpected price increase and the poor communication around it. Regarding the login and browser compatibility issues, please contact our support team directly, so we can resolve this for you immediately. We value your decade of loyalty and would welcome the chance to address your concerns and earn back your trust.

Not worth the stress

Square customer service is difficult to access and rarely solves problems, the Appointments system is clunky and likely designed by someone who has never worked in an appointments based business. When using Square appointments with payment at the time of scheduling, clients are frustratingly not able to use both a Square issued gift card and credit card as payment, which is frustrating and confusing to customers. Pricing and processing percentages continue to increase as quality and usefulness decrease.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about Square Appointments and our customer service. We appreciate you taking the time to outline these specific concerns.

The payment limitation you've described - not being able to combine gift cards with credit cards during appointment booking - is a frustrating user experience issue that I understand impacts both you and your clients. This type of payment flexibility is important for appointment-based businesses.

We'll continue to pass this and other feedback we receive on to our product development teams. Thank you for the detailed feedback - it helps us understand where we need to improve to better serve businesses like yours.
