*A manually entered card has a 2.2% processing fee per transaction. There are no fees to accept other tender types such as cash or cheque. When you accept other tender types, Square doesn’t process any funds and functions only as an organisational tool. Money for these transactions are exchanged directly between you and your customer and will not be transferred by Square.
