Pros

It's easy to grasp and user-friendly. Clients trust the brand and feel secure and confident when making mobile payments. It instantly establishes credibility with the consumer.

Cons

Square doesn't function on Android platforms for the Free or Retail Plus versions, but it does work on the Square POS version. The only thing is, if you don't have the physical card, there seems to be a higher transaction fee rate.

Pros

This appears to be the ideal program for small businesses. The program offers an impressively low credit card fee of 2.6%, as far as I've observed. It also supports successful scanning of SKU and GTIN codes. With unlimited items in the inventory, it's convenient for both the user and the customer, especially when next-day transfers are possible.

Cons

There is a free version, but I believe it's definitely worth paying for especially if you have multiple locations.

Pros

Processing payments and receiving payouts at the end of the day makes retail a hassle free task.

Cons

Honestly, the only thing I wish were different is that we didn't have to use Retail and could solely rely on Restaurants for our online ordering. However, Retail works better for it, and it functions well, so it's not a major issue.

Pros

We specifically use Square for Restaurants POS system for our taproom operations, and it seamlessly integrates with our mobile payments. However, we also rely on Square for Retail as the foundation for our online ordering page through Wix, as it's the most suitable option for hosting that site. It works flawlessly, allowing us to track inventory, orders, and more. It does exactly what we need it to do!

Cons

There really aren't any cons. None at all. I have nothing negative to say about Square for Retail.
