FAQs

  • Is Square for Restaurants right for my business?

    Square for Restaurants is a good fit for single- and multi-location full-service restaurants, quick-service restaurants, fast-casual restaurants, bars, pubs and multiconcept restaurants. If you’re a restaurant owner or manager who already uses restaurant management software such as Micros, Aloha, SumUp, Epos Now, Clover, Lightspeed or other POS providers or POS software, Square for Restaurants can likely fit your needs. We now offer a free version of Square for Restaurants in addition to our paid plans.

  • What’s included in each of the three pricing plans?

    All three Square for Restaurants plans include fast order entry, menu manager, order manager, table management, open bills, service charges, remote device management, multi-location management, the Square Team Management free plan and M–F, 09:00–17:00 support.

    With the Square for Restaurants Plus plan, you get access to premium features including close-of-day reports, auto-marking items as unavailable, item counts, shared device settings, advanced reporting, live sales reports and Square Team Plus. With Square for Restaurants Plus, you can also use unlimited Square KDS devices at no cost. Finally, your Square for Restaurants Plus plan also comes with 24/7 phone support for the moments that matter.

    Square for Restaurants Premium subscribers get everything listed above as well as custom pricing for additional Square tools, such as Square Marketing, Square Loyalty and Square Online. Eligibility applies. Contact sales to learn more.

  • Is hardware included?

Square for Restaurants is compatible with iPad and industry kitchen printers, receipt printers, cash drawers and routers, so you may be able to use your existing hardware.
