Manage Your Subscriptions and Payment Methods
Square offers subscription services where you’re billed monthly for all active paid services (excluding free trials). Subscriptions are built around your business – whether you’re using Team Management to manage your staff and rosters or Square Appointments to manage your client’s services – you can try the features free for 30 days.

Subscription 30-Day Free Trial
Try Square’s subscription services for free for 30 days.
If you’re enrolled in a free trial and wish to cancel the service, you’ll need to wait the full 30 days for the trial to complete. After the trial ends, you’ll have the option to subscribe or discontinue the service.
Note: If you subscribe mid-month, you’ll be charged a prorated amount for the remainder of the month.
Pay for Square Subscriptions
Square accepts Visa, Mastercard and American Express cards as payment methods for subscription services. Square will charge your credit or debit card on the first of the month. Your subscription fees will appear on your bank card statement, while transaction fees will appear in your transfer details report.
Applicable Subscription Taxes
Square’s subscription products are inclusive of GST and the entire amount, including GST, will be deducted from your preferred payment method at the time of billing.
