While Square is immensely popular, it is not without faults. For faster access to money, businesses can also instantly transfer up to $10,000 at a cost of 1.5 percent of the transaction plus the standard card processing fee. Business owners interested in custom packages must contact the sales department for an estimate. Square also offers custom pricing plans for companies that process more than $250,000 in card sales and have an average ticket size of more than $15. It is good to note, however, that activation, the POS app, chargebacks, support, advanced reporting tools, Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance, next-business day deposits and the first square card reader are all free. Square’s credit card processing fees are not the cheapest on the market. Square charges 2.9% plus 30 cents for purchases made through an online store, online checkout, e-commerce application programming interface (API) or online invoices. Square charges a transaction fee of 3.5% plus 15 cents per transaction for in-person payments where the card is keyed in manually, transactions that are taken virtually or from cards on file.

This includes prepaid gift cards, cards, such as Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover and JCB, and mobile wallets, such as Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay. Square charges 2.6% plus 10 cents per transaction every time a customer taps, dips or swipes their card during an in-person transaction.

Square also provides one free Square Reader for iPhone or Android to allow companies to take payments on the go. Square doesn’t charge any startup, subscription or refund fees. Square eliminates all that with a flat transaction fee structure. Payment processing companies are notorious for issuing multiple fees levied by card companies, banks and compliance standards leaving business owners confused about what they are paying.
