Is there a way to add Square payments to my website (site isn't through square)?

ellesmauikitche — Mon, 15 Aug 2016 21:58:32 GMT

Is there a way to use Square Up to accept credit card payments on my website (similar to how PayPal does it by adding the HTML code to the page)? My domain and website is under GoDaddy.

@ellesmauikitche - Hello! While we don't currently offer an off the shelf integration with GoDaddy, I can definitely see how this would be a use feature! Alternatively, with the help of web developer, you would be able to leverage our Ecommerce API to collect payments online with your custom site. You can check out more details on our Developer Center.

I was wondering about the same thing. I also use GoDaddy to host my website. Sad I can't link my square acount to my website!

I'm confused about this answer. ??? I just got off the phone with Square support and was told I could copy and past my Square store URL as a link on my website. ??? So client click on the link and they leave my site but go to my Square store. I haven't published the page yet but on the test preview it appears to work just fine. I was also told I could copy/paste the URL in emails and that tested fine. Can anyone clarify?

Me too. Sounds like you can do it but it's not simple and requires a developer.

@DogSmart @ellesmauikitche - You can certainly copy and paste the URL for your Square Online Store in your GoDaddy site, but ellesmauikitche already had a store set up through a different company. They just wanted to use Square as their check out, not for their actual store. Hope this helps!

I too use go daddy and want to accept payments through my square account, do I need to essentially use one of the 3rd party apps to actually link the square POS directly to my website? I don't want my customers re=directed to my square store I want them to shop, purchase and check out on my site but have payment processed through my square account...

I would like to know this too. I want my customers to shop on my site and just check out using Square.

Thanks for your post @barberdenise!

You're right, in order to accept payments with Square you will need to use one of our eCommerce apps. Unfortunately, we don't integrate with GoDaddy at this time and if that changes in future we'll update this thread. It looks like you're not the only seller is interested in this!

@cherylk If you haven't already, I recommend checking out this post: How to connect Square to your eCommerce Partner site. There is also information about Square's e-Commerce API on our Support Center. 😀

Try this out this is the only way i have found that works hopefully this is what everyone is looking for

http://www.jotform.com/square

I use this on my wix website as a html snipplet that i embed on my website, i am sure it will work the same way on all website builders that have a html code snipplet that you can enter and embed.

there is a free starter version and also a paid version which you can choose from both work fine.

In response to: Unfortunately, we don't integrate with GoDaddy at this time and if that changes in future we'll update this thread.

Square is missing out on some income, not being able to support GoDaddy Websites!

I went all the way thru the set up process only to find out that I couldn't link Square to our non-profit to collect donations.

Updating this thread wont alert me to whatever you do to change this, because now I have to go look for a different app to help us. And I probably won't be coming back.

Does anybody knoow of a way to use Square POS and integrate it into my alreadu set-up JOOMLA site ?

hobblehill — Fri, 28 Aug 2020 17:17:56 GMT

We have a Joomla site already to go but need to integrate our Square POS in to our Joomla site . Is this possible ?

JustinC — Sat, 29 Aug 2020 22:34:46 GMT

We don't have an official partnership with Joomla, so there isn't an off-the-shelf integration already built to connect with Square.

With guidance from a developer, you'll need to build an API integration to plug into the back of your website - https://developer.squareup.com/us/en

Square is definitely missing out on some revenue! I really want to stop using PayPal to take payments on my website so I have all sales processed through my Square account. Please send GoDaddy some roses and chocolate or something so you can make the integration happen!

MonarchAZ — Mon, 28 Jun 2021 16:07:29 GMT

Yes, Jotform will work. I set it up for another organization. I just want something more seamless on my own website.

Square,

Can you request that GoDaddy offer the Square Up logo as well as the PayPal logo for selling? Thank you. Seems like Square would want their logo there. Just saying...

Hello Alanah. I am not an IT person but had an IT professional assisting me. I wanted to add a "Pay Now" button to my GoDaddy website. We were in the process of doing this but when it came time to show the payment icon, the only offering was PayPal's logo. I use Square for all my business needs and don't want to confuse my customers by showing PayPal logo when I use Square. I have been trying to communicate and ask Square if this might not be a good opportunity to gain more brand recognition. I hope this helps describe my situation. Andrea

Thanks for providing more insight @Sparkle5. I am actually going to step in for Alanah while she is off.

Square does offer the "Buy Now" button that you can add to your website:

To manage settings for your buy buttons built with Square Online Checkout:

In your online Square Dashboard, go to Online Checkout. In the right hand corner you should see "Add Button to Website."

I am hoping this is what you are looking for, or helpful ! If not please let me know.

My website is through my supplier, I customize it with my name, but the website is on their server. It offered me paypal so my customers can pay when they order. Is there a way for me to put in Square instead of Paypal ( I really do not want to continue doing business with them).
