Add and manage authorised representatives

About authorised representatives

Sometimes you may want someone other than the account owner to manage specific tasks or reach out to Square Support. You can grant your team members account access by adding them as an authorised representative.

An authorised representative is a team member or associate who can: 

• Contact Square Support for general guidance (no account-specific details)

• Ask Square Support general questions about Square Loans (excluding offer-specific details)

• Communicate and take action on a Square Loans offer

• Discuss account-specific details with Square Support, like transactions, transfers, fees, customers, and subscriptions

• Ask Square Support to update business information

Before you begin
