Manual discounts support advanced rules including category targeting, BOGO conditions, and conditional logic. These rule types, previously limited to automatic discounts, can be configured when creating or editing any manual discount.

Automatic discounts display and apply across menu, item, and cart views in web and app-based ordering. Sellers configure discount rules (percentage off, dollar off, BOGO, or time-windowed promotions) once, and eligible discounts apply at checkout without manual intervention.

Food and beverage sellers using Square Point of Sale in Standard mode can open bar tabs with card preauthorization. When a customer opens a tab, POS places a hold on their card and releases or adjusts the final amount when the tab is closed.

The automatic Cash App Pay QR code no longer appears on the customer-facing display of Square Register or Square Stand. Cash App Pay remains available as a payment method when selected as a tender during checkout, at which point customers can scan and pay as usual.

You can customize printed ticket density and font size on both iOS and Android. Compact ticket mode tightens spacing to fit sticky labels and reduce paper usage. Font size options let you adjust text readability for kitchen staff. These settings apply to tickets printed from Square Point of Sale, including online orders.

Team members with the Team Management permission can edit all staff profiles, including Authorized Representative profiles. Account owners can delegate day-to-day staff management without needing to make those changes themselves.

Food & Beverage sellers in Australia can connect their DoorDash account directly from Square Dashboard. DoorDash orders appear alongside other orders in your Square Point of Sale and Dashboard, with menu sync and consolidated reporting across channels.

Group ordering lets multiple buyers in the same party place individual orders that consolidate into a single kitchen ticket. Each buyer pays individually while the kitchen receives one combined ticket per group.

Square Point of Sale for Food & Beverage supports structured fulfillment workflows for pickup, delivery, and dine-in orders. You can capture recipient name, phone number, and address in the cart, and those details print on kitchen tickets and receipts. Paid POS orders appear in Order Manager with status tracking and the ability to text diners when their order is ready.

A "Popular items" section appears at the top of your online menu, surfacing your best-selling items based on order history. The section updates automatically as sales patterns change. You can turn it on or off in Online settings.

Real Time Check View displays a live cart alongside the item configuration screen in all Food & Beverage POS modes. As you add or edit modifiers, quantities, and prices, the cart updates in place without requiring a screen switch. You can also multi-select cart items to perform bulk actions like comp, void, move, or remove.

You can require deposits on a per-service basis when clients book appointments. Each service in your catalog has its own deposit policy and amount, so higher-value or longer services can carry different deposit requirements than shorter ones. Deposits help protect against no-shows by collecting partial payment at the time of booking.

You can create a UPS account and purchase UPS shipping labels directly from Square Dashboard at discounted rates. No separate UPS account or third-party integration is required.

You can define tax percentage overrides by country, state, or ZIP code for online sales through Online Ordering Profiles and Square Online. These seller-defined rates apply at checkout based on the buyer's location.

Square Online supports time-based availability at the menu group level, not just the menu level. Within a single menu, you can set hours for specific menu groups for easier dayparting (e.g., lunch versus dinner service) or time-based specials like happy hour and limited-time offers. If you use time-based categories such as "Lunch" or "Happy Hour," they display on your Square Online site according to their scheduled hours without requiring separate menus for each time window.

Food & Beverage sellers in Australia, the UK, and Canada can connect their Uber Eats account directly from Square Dashboard at no additional cost. The integration syncs your menu, routes incoming Uber Eats orders to your KDS or POS, and includes delivery order data in your Square reporting.

Starting March 16, bitcoin is automatically enabled as a payment method for new Square sellers. Payments settle in USD by default. Bitcoin payment setup, conversion options, and a marketing kit are now included in the Business Hub onboarding flow, and the Bitcoin section of Square Dashboard highlights recommended next steps. This feature is not available to sellers based in New York.

Orders now sync between devices significantly faster, reducing the time it takes for new and updated orders to appear across your setup. The improvement is most noticeable in multi-device environments or locations using pickup workflows. This applies to all device platforms.

You can now perform full physical inventory counts directly on Square Terminal, Consumer Android, and X2 devices. Scan items, reconcile quantities, and finalize counts without needing a separate device. This feature is available in open beta starting with version 7.4 for Square for Retail Plus sellers, accessible from the inventory applet.

Your Item Library on Square Dashboard now displays availability status pills so you can see at a glance which items are available, sold out, or hidden. Clicking a pill opens a popover that lets you update item availability and inventory directly from the same page.

You can now mark items as pre-order only from the item editor in Square Dashboard. Customers can place orders days or weeks in advance with custom fulfillment windows, which is useful for items that need lead time like holiday meal kits or custom cakes. If a customer's cart contains pre-order items with non-overlapping fulfillment windows or mixed availability for pickup and delivery, they'll see a notification at checkout.

Menu editing actions now enforce team member location permissions. When a team member has access to specific locations, they can only edit menus and run bulk actions for those locations. This applies to actions like assigning modifier sets, updating price overrides, and creating items within menus.

If you have a Square Credit Card, you can now redeem your cash back rewards directly into your Square Savings account. Deposited rewards begin earning APY immediately.

Customers choose a tip amount before they pay, so you capture tips you'd otherwise miss when customers walk away too quickly. This will soon become the default checkout flow for all US sellers who collect tips on a screen. If you accept tips on paper receipts only, nothing changes.

Price and profit margin columns now appear in the inventory receive flow and the stock overview items page within the inventory applet on Square Point of Sale. Both columns are view-only. This feature is available with Square Plus.
