How to set up an employee that has no email?

AVMercantile — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 06:23:26 GMT

I am hiring an older individual to work part time that has no email. Square will not let me get past the first screen without inputting an email. Is there a solution?

Hi AVMercantile,

One possible work around would be to use a Gmail Account - I've seen this suggested on the Community board in the past. Perhaps another Community member has a suggestion - the people here have quite a bit of hands on experience with various ways to solve issues.

Hi! Thank you for reaching out. Since you're on Payroll, unfortunately, there isn't a way to add a team member added without email (non-payroll, you can add with a phone number)

Is it possible to create an email for them? In other cases, sellers have used emails from a designated individual that their team member trusts (a family member maybe)

We are making this system better and will release a way in a few months for Payroll team members to be added by a phone number
