Square Review (MONEY)

We review Square POS, including features such as integrations, multiple ways to pay, inventory management and more.

On the software review platforms G2 and Capterra, Square has a 4.6 out of five and a 4.7 out of five, respectively. It offers multiple ways to accept payment from customers, its inventory management system is easy to use, it has a wide variety of features and the company offers many integrations with popular business apps. Square is available across the U.S., as well as Canada, Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, France and Spain. Merchants receive funds in their bank accounts the next business day or can choose to receive funds instantly for a 1.5% fee. Square offers a large lineup of plans, including the key offerings below. There's no minimum sales volume required to use the terminal and no contract to lock merchants in. Square's iPad stand with reader lets you turn an iPad into a POS, and the newest version has tap-to-pay and chip card readers built in. POS providers like Square tend to make the bulk of their money by charging transaction fees. Square is a giant in the point-of-sale (POS) industry. Even though Square offers multiple support channels on its website, in practice, it can be time-consuming and complicated to reach a customer representative. Finally, checkout can be slow, and sometimes the card reader has difficulty reading a customer's card, requiring multiple card swipes to get it to work. But is it the right POS system for your small business?

Remarks by Honourable Rymer At The Road Town Market Square ... (Government of the Virgin Islands)

Each kiosk will be enclosed with hurricane-rated shutters, and these shutters, when opened will provide shelter for patrons from the sun and rain based on their ...

We have ensured to include the Market Square as one of the stops in the Park and Ride shuttle service to maximise the traffic to the market. I would also like to acknowledge the staff at the Public Works Department for their assistance towards this project, the Town and Country Planning Department for the development of the schematics of the Market Square master plan, and Mr. I close with reassurance to the people of this territory that this Government remains committed to improving the infrastructure and providing opportunities for a thriving economy and enhanced quality of life for all here in these beautiful Virgin Islands. I take this opportunity to congratulate you and extend my sincerest well wishes to all businesses that are occupying, and those that will occupy a kiosk in the Market Square in the future. This project could not be realised without the support of my colleagues in the Government and the work of my team in the Ministry. A bus shelter will be constructed in the open area adjacent to the road with benches to accommodate up to 25 persons and serve as the central point for passengers to gather for collection by the bus operators. The first building constructed on the site was the bandstand building, which will serve as a central gathering area for any events that may be held at the Market Square. The City of Road Town has been without a market for several years, and this Government ensured that this was one of our priority projects to be executed. Finally, we have reduced the amount of hardscaped areas and have included more soft landscaping which will include grass and shrubs and trees to allow for a better drainage of the water during those rain events. As I said before, we want the Market Square to be an inclusive place where persons feel comfortable visiting to purchase goods and relax. It is truly heart-warming to see the transformation of the Market Square from my earlier years of visiting the market with my grandmother to the structures that we see today. The Market Square is a historical site established in the 1970s and was the fourth (4th) official Market Day venue in the Territory.
