Skip the Receipt Screen to Speed Up Checkout

To speed up your checkout flow with the Square Point of Sale app during peak business hours, you can skip the receipt screen. This allows you to complete a sale without prompting a customer to enter their phone number or email address, helping you quickly transition to the next customer in the queue.

Turn on Skip Receipt

  1. From the Square app, tap More > Settings > Checkout > Receipt.

  2. Toggle on Skip Receipt.

Will skipping the receipt screen speed up cash or other tender transactions?
