Square Beta

What to expect when testing

Welcome to the Square Beta Program

Beta features are hardware or software being tested by a subset of customers (YOU!) before they’re released to the public. We run betas to identify areas of improvement for these new products before they are publically available to ensure all sellers receive tools that truly empower their business. In the Square Beta Program, the beta team selects testers across all types of businesses, including those in the restaurant, retail, services, and health and beauty industries, and more. After testers have tested the product or feature, your feedback is collected and reported back to our product teams. As a beta tester, your feedback directly helps Square build the right products with your business needs in mind. The Square development process values seller feedback and insights to plan its future.

Join the Beta Community for exclusive access to newly designed features and tools before the rest of the world!

What to expect from the Square Beta Team

Selecció beta:

Invitacions: l’equip beta et convidarà a participar en proves beta a través de publicacions a la Comunitat Beta o missatges de correu electrònic. Només has de seguir les instruccions de la publicació o del missatge per entrar a formar-ne part. Les proves beta comencen entre una o tres setmanes després que enviem les invitacions.

Selecció prèvia: per a alguns projectes beta, ens saltem el procés d’invitació i seleccionem venedors segons uns criteris específics. Aquestes proves normalment es fan amb funcions que estaran disponibles aviat per a tots els venedors de Square i amb un risc pràcticament inexistent d’alterar el dia a dia del negoci.

Atenció al venedor:

Contingut: informarem sobre els passos i detalls de la funció a la invitació per correu electrònic o a través de la Comunitat Beta quan estigui disponible. Sovint publiquem articles d’ajuda, de com començar a fer servir una funció o sobre consells i trucs per millorar la teva experiència.

Preguntes: l’equip Beta et respondrà qualsevol dubte sobre la funció beta, tant a la Comunitat Beta com per correu electrònic.

Your time to shine

A beta test is only successful with your participation. The Square Beta Program is all about learning from your experience with beta tests and hearing your feedback. Here are the best ways to be active in the Beta Community.

Use the feature

It’s as simple as that — check out the feature as soon as it’s available.

Share your feedback

We want to hear it — good, bad, and anything in between. Tell us about the setup process, your employee and customer experiences, and how you’re using this feature in your day-to-day business.

Report any bugs or issues

When you notice something not working as you expect, let us know as soon as you can. The more detail you can provide, the faster we can help. Explain the steps you took to make the issue happen, as well as the specific transactions, employees, or devices involved. If possible, take a video of the issue as it happens.

If you have any other general Square questions not related to betas, contact Square Customer Success.

Answer surveys

Most beta tests involve surveys throughout the testing period. Surveys are typically 10 questions or less and ask for specific insight about the feature. Your survey responses provide Square with valuable insights for making future changes or improvements and help us decide if we’re ready to launch. By taking certain surveys, you may even have the opportunity to engage in direct conversations with our product teams and, in exchange for your time, earn free processing credit or gift cards.
