FAQ

  • What can Square do for electrical businesses in the UK?

    Square helps electrical contractors manage the work around each job, from site visits and estimates to invoices, payments, and reporting. You can schedule appointments, take card payments on-site or remotely, and keep customer and job details in one place.

  • Can I send estimates and turn them into invoices?

    Yes. Create estimates with parts, labour, and VAT, then turn approved estimates into invoices. You can also request deposits and let clients pay online by card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.

  • Can clients book electrical site visits online?

    Yes. Share your booking link so clients can choose a time for call-outs, inspections, repairs, or installations. Confirmations and reminders are sent automatically, and booking details sync with Square Appointments.

  • Do I need hardware to take payments on site?

    No. You can accept contactless payments on compatible phones or use devices like Square Reader or Square Terminal for chip-and-PIN payments. Choose the right setup with Compare hardware.

  • How fast do electrical contractors get paid?

    Funds typically reach your bank in one to two working days. You can also opt for instant transfers for a fee² when you need access to funds sooner.
