Shipping and Delivery FAQ

When will my Square Shop order arrive?

Your order will be shipped according to ship quote mentioned in webshop:

Standard: 3-5 working days

Express: 1-2 working days

Keep in mind: If you’ve ordered multiple items from the Square Shop, it may arrive in multiple packages.

How can I check my order tracking details?

If your account is set up correctly, you’ll next need to check your order via Square Shop.

  1. From Square Shop, sign in to your Square account.
  2. In the top right hand corner, click My Account > Order Status.
  3. Click on your order to view your details.

If your order has been fully processed, you can track your order by selecting Track Order on your hardware order – your order may still be in transit.

Note: We’ll also email you updates as we process your order, including carrier tracking details for shipped orders and order status. You can track your order from the link in your shipping confirmation email, as well as sign up for text message alerts about the status of your delivery. The tracking page and text messages relay the shipment scans while en route.

Tracking information can take up to 24 hours to appear after your item ships. Note: If an order includes multiple items, each may have a separate delivery date and tracking information.

What is the ‘Ready to Go’ status?

Our warehouse is finalising your order for shipping. Your tracking will update once the delivery carrier picks up and scans your item for delivery.
