Square – Credit Card Processing

Update – November 2018

I met with a Square representative, who is blind, at the recent BLAST conference. Square continues to make their application accessible and they’ve incorporated feedback from blind customers.

The integration with QuickBooks can be inconsistent, so data imports do need attention to make sure reports are accurate.

Square provides a convenient method for taking credit card sales via  your phone or tablet. Square’s iPad stand provides a scanner that bypasses the headphone jack, providing an accessible solution for using the screen reader and terminal at the same time.

The Square headphone-port based scanner can work with VoiceOver when using the Wiretap headphone/microphone splitter.

Square also integrates with Intuit’s QuickBooks for complete management of your sales and inventory.
