FAQ

Straight answers, no fine print games.

Does it cost more to sign up for Square through SquareForLess?
No. On Standard pricing you pay Square's exact published rates — identical to signing up at squareup.com. We never add markups, and Square has no PCI compliance fees, no junk fees, and no annual fees on either path.
How can Square For Less have zero processing fees?
As an authorized reseller, we can enroll qualifying merchants in a program where per-transaction processing costs are removed from your side of the ledger — you pay only your monthly Square software plan. When you sign up through our Square For Less link, your account is set up on this structure from day one. Have questions about eligibility for your business? Drop your info below and we'll walk you through it.
Do I have to buy hardware?
You can take payments with no hardware at all using Tap to Pay on iPhone or Android, invoices, and payment links. If you want a Reader, Terminal, Stand, or Register, you purchase it directly from Square — and once you're enrolled through our link, you can apply for hardware financing right inside your Square account.
I already use Square. Can I switch to Square For Less?
Reach out through the form below with your current setup and monthly volume. We'll tell you honestly whether switching makes sense for you and what the path looks like.
Is there a contract or cancellation fee?
No long-term contracts and no cancellation fees. Square plans are month to month — cancel or switch plans anytime.
How fast can I start taking payments?
Most merchants are approved and taking their first payment the same day they sign up. Hardware ships separately if you order it, but Tap to Pay works on your phone immediately.
