Web integration, using square versus alternative (e.g. authorize.net)

hotcookie — Fri, 15 Feb 2019 19:17:20 GMT

Currently use the woocommerce square interface for my store (hotcookie.com). We are expanding how our web site works. We would like to do the following:

1. Give the customer the option of saving a credit card for future purchases

2. Enable reoccuring charges

3. Enable customers to use gift cards for online purchases

Right now square does not have an integration equivalent to the capabilities of authorized.net. Why is that? You don't seem to be focused on competing at the leel of authorize.net? As I understand it, I can do a custom integration for 1 and 2.

You don't have an API for using the gift cards we sell in the store. As I understand I can get with the square store or Weebly, why can't I get with the custom API?

Also, why is woocommerce as a label not allowed under e-commerce api?

Thanks ahead of time.

Thank you for your post @hotcookie, we appreciate your feedback and I'll share your requests for a Gift Card API and for recurring charges with card on file with the WooCommerce and Integration teams.

I'm not sure I understand your last question, what labels are you referring to?
