I see the setting ' save cards to customer profiels' under the customer maanagemtn seciton int he square register App. What does this setting do? it seems to relate to my in-store customers, and seems to be different than the new 'save card info' for invoices.
These are actually tied to the same feature.
While you can request for a customer to store their card on file through a Square Invoice, in order to manually enter one - you have to use the Customer Directory. Stored cards won't interact at all with in-store purchases through a Square Register sale (while that could certainly be a cool feature).
Hope this helps!
