Price Items by Weight

You’re currently unable to fully integrate scales with the Square app to price items by weight.

In the meantime, the following options allow you to price items by weight:

  • Use a third-party scale and the Square app’s variable pricing feature.

  • E.g., Pre-program the weights of your items in the scale and enter those prices during the time of sale using a variable priced item.

  • Use individual items as a specific measure of weight.

  • E.g., Set a price of X for an item called “50 grammes”, and then if an item weighs 500 grammes, enter a quantity of 10.

Square doesn’t integrate directly with third-party scales at this time, but the CAS 2000 Jr. scale can be pre-programmed to record weight and price.
