Best credit card machine EVER!
So easy to use.
Only thing wrong is the price. Should really be a little cheaper since it can only be used with their Credit Card Company with their non-negotiable rates.
Thank you for your enthusiastic review, McCindy! We’re delighted to hear that you find the Square Terminal to be the best portable credit card machine and that it’s easy to use. We appreciate your feedback about the pricing and will take it into consideration. Thanks again for your support!

Love this! We needed a printer for our stand and this exceeded expectations. The Customer Service in-store was amazing!

Easy to use and setup.
One issue though, if you connect to your square account with a code rather than logging in, the screen stays stuck at "powered by square". Fixed by resetting device and logging in with email and password

Works great. Expensive, but I don’t know how to make something like this. So, shoutout to everyone who makes things like this. And Taiwan for the chips

Works great, we use it for our pop up bakery. Battery lasts long and interface is really easy to use. Only issues we've had is with square itself during the outages. I highly recommend, if you dont already, getting a mobile hotspot.
Thanks for the great review, AnnikamieR! We would suggest checking out our new offline payment feature if an outage were to occur. We appreciate your positive feedback!

Love it! I have three. Square did this right. Love the printer, easy to use and compact to carry. Super fast to connect to your cell phone hotspot allows you to accept payments almost anywhere. I use the devices for our office, retail kiosk, tradeshows and craftfairs.
We love to hear that you're loving you Square Terminals. Thank you for the review!

I bought two of these last minute to replace old Square devices and we needed these for a high volume of customers (40-50 / hour) in the middle of an event. After they were plugged in and connected to the Internet, I connected them to our Square account and we were taking payments 5 minutes later. Fantastic devices and very good looking too.
Square Terminal - best Square reader choice for me

I'm very happy with buying the terminal through Best Buy. Shipping was free and very fast - better than buying through Square. The device works very well, and most of the setup can be done from your online account on a computer or phone if you prefer. I am very happy with the terminal, get printed receipts for both customer and us. Very easy to use

Great all in one device… Setup favorites, key in custom amounts, print receipts, account access. I do wish it would store multiple Wi-Fi networks so I wouldn’t have to renter Wi-Fi info each time I go to a new location. And the price point could stand to be a bit less.
Thank you for your valuable feedback, KimberlyM. We're delighted to hear you find our Square Terminal a great all-in-one device, offering convenient features. Your suggestion about storing multiple Wi-Fi networks will be considered for future improvements. We'll also take your pricing feedback into account. We appreciate your support!

I purchased the Square terminal for a flea market type sale that we were having at our church and it was so easy to set-up and for a host of different people to use. All of the transactions were processed smoothly and we were able to check the summary of sales transactions for the day, week, month, etc. One of the reasons we purchased a Square terminal was to avoid version compatibility issues with the square readers that attach to other devices, such as iPads and phones.
Thank you, KiKo, for sharing your experience with the Square Terminal. We're thrilled to hear it was easy to set up and worked seamlessly for your church's flea market. It's great to know that it helped you avoid compatibility issues and provided smooth sales transactions. We appreciate your feedback!

What a difference this Square Terminal makes! I admit I was afraid it would be difficult to setup, but it was simple. It has been a huge boost to my business. My only regret is not buying sooner.

This credit card terminal is amazing and worked flawlessly during a large game convention we exhibited at. This is very portable and has a built in battery as well. We had it plugged in most of the days but it worked great and without issue on a cellular hotspot.
Thanks for taking the time to write this review, we're glad to hear you're loving your Square Terminal.

Great device to use at our church's festival fundraiser. Keeps track of busy times & food purchases to help with buying supplies for the next year. One entrance to food tent, order food, make a payment (cash or credit card), hand them a receipt & they can pick up their food as needed (pay for a dessert & pick it up later in the evening).
The percentage to Square is worth the convenience!
Only slight negative is learning the updates before our next year festival.
Thank you for your wonderful review of the Square Terminal! We're thrilled to hear that it has been a valuable asset for your church's festival fundraiser, helping to streamline food orders and payments. We appreciate your feedback and your support!

I was looking for a P.O.S. system. A friend suggested this. He was right on. Up and running in minutes. Love how you can work off your computer and it automatically displays on the portable. Haven't even began to utilize it's capabilities. Super excited, just what my small business needed and I didn't need a small business loan to pay for it thanks to BEST BUY's C.C. program. In stock and NO monthly fees.
Thanks for sharing your experience, MichaelM! We're glad to hear that the Square Terminal setup was quick and that it’s meeting your needs for your small business. It's great to know that the ease of use and cost-effectiveness are making a positive impact. We appreciate your feedback and hope it continues to serve you well!
