Can a website visitor submit a photo along with a comment on a page?

Hello.

We are trying to run a contest where a customer can submit a comment along with a photo or photo(s). Can that be created on a Square website page? I know we can create a Contact Us form, but I don't see an option to have the visitor submit a photo and comment.

Thanks

Unfortunately Square's Online Websites do not support uploads or doing FTPs (File Transfer Protocol) from the outside. Square's website function is a bit different from other 3rd party hosting services because the intent was for non-coders or folks without HTML experience to quickly build and manage a web site. Most small business owners want a functional basic website so they can start selling right away. It's possible to use a cloud service like Dropbox, Google or Microsoft Business where as you could create a shared folder that could be used for what you have in mind.

Thanks for the info. I appreciate that Square wants to keep things simple, but it would be great to give customers the ability to upload photos along with the comments they submit. I like to drive traffic to the website, but for our case, I'll have to drive traffic somewhere else to accomplish our goal. I find Square's website and email marketing features weak at best.
