“I got into Square Savings when someone on the Square Community Board recommended it for saving for sales tax — and sales tax is the worst. It was genius that I could just set it up and automatically deduct 10% of my daily earnings or sales. It made this last tax filing so easy; it was incredible.”

“I actively use my Square savings account to set aside money for future business needs. I'm saving for opening a second location, upgrading equipment, marketing campaigns, and emergencies like slow seasons or repairs.”

"I’ve always saved for taxes. Growing up, I understood how important that was. Square tells you how much to put aside into Square Savings, and it’s easy. When it’s time to pay your taxes, there you go — the money’s already there."

Juan Saravia

"This is why I love Square: Square has a feature that makes saving for taxes out of sight, out of mind. As soon as someone pays me, it instantly takes out a certain percentage that I set up, and it goes right into that account. I don't have to do anything.”

  • How does automated savings work?

    With automated savings, you can choose a percentage of your Square sales revenue to move into a dedicated savings folder. Many business owners automatically set aside funds for expenses such as income or sales tax, bills, supplies or longer term savings goals, in order to separate those funds from their primary business banking account.

  • How do I transfer in and out of Savings?

    You can easily transfer money in or out of your Square Savings account. Just select the folder you want to transfer from, choose “Transfer,” and follow the prompts to move money to or from your linked Square Checking or external bank account.

  • Where do I find my monthly statements?

    Monthly Savings statements are available in your Square Dashboard. Go to your Savings account, select “Statements,” and you’ll be able to view or download your past statements anytime.
