Square Appointments Subscription Options

Appointments for Individuals

You can use Square Appointments for Individuals free of charge. There is no monthly fee to use Appointments for Individuals, and you will only pay Square’s standard processing fee when you process your client’s credit or debit card.

Appointments for Teams

Appointments for Teams enables you to create staff profiles for online booking and calendar management. Customize the level of access for each staff member to the Appointments calendar and point of sale.

Processing Fee for Teams

When you sign up to manage staff with Square Appointments for Teams, your processing fee for card-present (swiped, dipped, or tapped) payments will be 2.5% + $0.10 per transaction. For all other types of transactions (such as card-not-present, Virtual Terminal, or invoices), you’ll pay Square’s standard processing fee.

It’s important to note, the rate of 2.5% + $0.10 for card-present transactions is only for payments processed through the Appointments app. If you use the Square Point of Sale app to process payments with your Appointments account, you will pay the standard processing fee of 2.75% for card present transactions.

Appointments for Individuals + Employee Management

Appointments for Teams allows you to create staff profiles for booking services. However, some Appointments sellers don’t need the calendar or booking features for their staff. That’s where Employee Management comes in. While Square Appointments for Teams utilizes Employee Management’s features, there’s a different billing structure if you want to limit your staff’s access to the point of sale, without allowing them access to the Appointments calendar.

This subscription option is considered Appointments for Individuals (since only one person will be accessing the calendar) + Employee Management. While Appointments for Individuals is free, for every employee profile you create your monthly billing will be $5 per employee, and you’ll pay Square’s standard processing fee.

Here are some examples of billing with Square for Individuals + Employee Management:
