I ordered a Square debit card, do I still have to link a bank account to receive payments?

To start accepting payments, my Square account is asking me to add a bank account. If I oredered a Square debit card, do I still have to add my personal bank account to Square to accept payments? I will not be accepting payments until I activate my Square debit card.

 

(I searched the topics but found nothing addressing this question 🙄)

hi @ThtGrl 

Yes you would still need to link and verify a traditional bank account.  Square requires a transactional bank account that allows for transfers and withdrawals (in case of refunds or chargebacks
