About Square Card
Square Card is a business expense card that’s connected to your Square balance. When you process a payment, the money you earn is reflected in your Square balance. You can spend that money with your Square Card anywhere internationally where Mastercard® cards are accepted, including in person, online and at ATMs.
It’s free to order and personalise your Square Card, and it’s free to use your card to make purchases.

Before you begin
Square Card eligibility requires verification through our banking partner. If your information can’t be verified, you won’t be able to use Square Card but you can still set up and edit transfer options.
Once you order a card, it will arrive in 5 working days.
As soon as you order your card, automated transfers to a linked bank account stop since you’ll automatically have access to your virtual card. You can still initiate a transfer at any time with free next-day transfers or instant transfer for a fee.
The maximum you can spend is £10,000 per transaction, £25,000 per day and £150,000 per month.
If you’re using your card to withdraw cash, there are daily and monthly withdrawal limits and the limits applicable to your Square Card may be viewed from the Balance section of the Square Point of Sale app or Square Dashboard.
Square doesn’t charge ATM fees, but ATM providers may charge a fee when making a withdrawal.
When withdrawing funds from an ATM, the ATM may state that your balance is £0.00, which is incorrect. You can check your available funds from the Balance section of the Square Point of Sale app.
Daily limits reset at 17:01, weekly limits are reset on Sundays at 17:01, and monthly limits reset at 17:01 on the last day of each month.
