WooCommerce Square

Description

This plugin allows you to securely accept payments, synchronize sales, and seamlessly manage inventory and product data between WooCommerce and Square POS.

The Square plugin is PCI and SAQ A-level compliant.

Accept payments anywhere, anytime

  • The Square plugin extends WooCommerce to allow you to accept payments via Square – including support for Apple Pay®, Google Pay, WooCommerce Subscriptions and WooCommerce Pre-Orders.
  • Recurring customers can save payment methods and use them at checkout.
  • Customize payment forms with automatic formatting, mobile-friendly options, and retina card icons.

Manage your business all in one place

Sync your product and inventory information from WooCommerce to Square, or from Square to WooCommerce — set everything up once, and whenever you make a sale, your inventory automatically updates on both platforms.

  • If you sell mainly online, set WooCommerce as your system of record so WooCommerce pushes product name, inventory, prices, categories, and images to Square.
  • If you sell in multiple locations and online, set Square as your system of record so Square pushes product name, inventory, prices, categories, and images to WooCommerce.

Installation

You can download an older version of this gateway for older versions of WooCommerce from here.

Automatic installation

Automatic installation is the easiest option as WordPress handles the file transfers itself and you don’t need to leave your web browser. To
automatically install WooCommerce Square, log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu, and click Add New.

In the search field type “WooCommerce Square” and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve found our plugin you can install it by clicking Install Now, as well as view details about it such as the point release, rating, and description.

Manual installation

The manual installation method involves downloading our plugin and uploading it to your web server via your favourite FTP application. The WordPress codex contains instructions on how to do this here.

Updating

Automatic updates should work like a charm; as always though, ensure you backup your site just in case.

Note

If running PHP 8.2+, you may see some deprecation notices being logged. These notices are known and do not impact any plugin functionality.

FAQ

Does this require an SSL certificate?

Yes! An SSL certificate must be installed on your site to use Square.

Where can I find documentation?

Everything was great until the next day. Twenty hours after installation, the media gallery showed over 700 copies of the wc-square-gift-card-placeholder.png and growing. It was multiplying like bunnies. A support ticket to Automatic got a few responses. Once they mentioned that this was a known bug and they would make a note of it, they stopped answering emails. Upon some digging, this “bug” has been “known” for quite a while. They should pull this plugin off until it is fixed.

A Masterclass in Frustration Adding to the already detailed negative review, here’s a compilation of further criticisms based on widespread feedback from other users across various platforms: Square for WooCommerce Review: A Masterclass in Frustration The Square for WooCommerce plugin is not just a disappointment; it’s an outright failure in modern e-commerce solutions. This integration supposedly designed to simplify the management of online and physical stores instead multiplies the workload and exasperates its users. Many users echo the sentiment that this plugin remains perpetually in a beta state, never fully delivering on its promises. Retailers find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle of managing dual inventories manually due to the plugin’s inability to selectively sync products. If you have more than a handful of products or operate multiple locations, this plugin becomes a hinderance rather than a help. A common grievance among the users is the plugin’s poor handling of product images and descriptions, requiring store owners to update each platform individually—defeating the purpose of an integration meant to save time. This issue is compounded by the plugin’s notorious single-image limitation, which necessitates additional uploads for every product, an archaic feature that users find bewildering in the age of multi-media online retail. The lack of integration for Square Loyalty is another sore point. Customers cannot view or redeem their loyalty points on WooCommerce, creating a disjointed experience that undermines customer retention strategies and complicates marketing efforts. The handling of taxes is particularly problematic. The plugin’s inability to manage inclusive tax options properly has led to incorrect charges at checkout, infuriating customers and complicating financial reporting for businesses. This issue is especially critical in regions with stringent tax compliance regulations. Support—or the lack thereof—has been a major point of contention. User forums and review sites are awash with complaints about the non-responsive and unhelpful support team, which often resorts to generic responses. The overwhelming feeling is one of abandonment, with users feeling left to fend for themselves amidst a sea of unresolved issues and unaddressed bugs. Perhaps the most damning feedback comes from the long wait times for essential updates. The glacial pace at which improvements are made, if ever, suggests a lack of commitment from the developers. The addition of Gift Cards, a basic feature that took over eight years to implement, is frequently cited as emblematic of the plugin’s slow and unresponsive development cycle. In sum, the Square for WooCommerce plugin is widely regarded as a liability rather than an asset. The litany of unresolved issues, combined with sluggish updates and ineffective support, has led many users to seek alternatives. As a solution partner and retailer, the consensus is clear: this plugin is unfit for serious e-commerce and should be avoided by any retailer who values efficiency, reliability, and customer satisfaction.
