85% paid off all green and still no offer, does any know what's going on
Hi @Arminius !
Appreciate you taking the time to post.
New offers are not automatically extended when a certain percentage of an existing loan is repaid, but your business may become eligible for a new offer when your existing plan is closer to being repaid. We can’t guarantee a loan offer even if the key factors displayed on the eligibility page show all “Good.”
We will continue to review your account daily for loan eligibility. If you become eligible, you’ll be notified directly on your Square Dashboard and through email.
Hope that helps, please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any other questions!
Hi @Deliman!
Appreciate you taking the time to post.
There are many factors that may affect your eligibility, and accounts are evaluated as a whole.
You may view your eligibility page by navigating to the Loans tab on your Square Dashboard. This page was built to help our sellers gain insight into the status of their Square Loans eligibility by taking your business’s real time data and comparing it to key factors that determine eligibility.
If you have any question please contact our Canadian Loans Support team directly at 888-800-5333.
We appreciate you reaching out and hope this helps!
Received my offer at 78% on Saturday. As bad as I wanted to wait; this has been a slow and brutal winter and I need to rebuild. Hopefully with the new inventory, this will be paid in no time. It was only a $1000 increase but I’ll gladly accept it.
Hi @ianssoph !
Thanks for posting on the Seller Community.
You can connect your primary business bank account with Plaid, and we’ll only use this data to improve future offers. Connecting a bank or multiple banks is optional and will not affect your current eligibility status. Our system will still continue to monitor accounts for eligibility as it has done so in the past.
Hope that helps, please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any other questions!
Thank you for your help on this thread, @Twpchair! ❤️
It sounded like you were newer to loans. It's so hard to try and make a guess on it with the first few loans especially. Besides me telling you there are no guarantees of if or when the next offer might come. The difficult part is Square and the algorithm trying to figure out your processing pattern. With any new account, you have to start somewhere. The algorithm is a tremendous help for us to use but it's not a guarantee of an offer nor is it a bust if something needs work. Square takes into account your whole profile. Time with Square, previous loans are huge. All the good signs. Increase in sales, volume of swipes, and new customers. The algorithm is doing its job and crunching numbers and recording data. It does look at your account daily. If you can help it increase sales or boost the number of swipes maybe that might trigger it to take a 2nd look at your account. That's just a wild guess. Something has to! Good luck and Keep us posted ok.
Yes, I understood you. It transfers over the next day. Now, when you go to make your loan payment it takes 7-10 business days to process. Once it is cleared you are eligible to update and go back into the algorithm. If or when, with no guarantees, it's hard to say. The last time I paid off a loan in the upper 80s to low 90s, I was 14 days (federal holiday) fell in there to process the payment and clear through the system. Then it took 2 days to go back into the algorithm. Through this process, I was already paid off from sales. Before paying off your loan double-check to make sure you don't have any offers. If you do it will cancel it out during this process. Good luck with your journey!

While you are not currently eligible for an offer, your account is automatically reviewed daily to determine eligibility. New offers are not automatically extended when a certain percentage of an existing loan is repaid, offers are based on many factors, including, but not limited to, your current payment processing volume, your customer mix, and your Square account history.
Feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any additional questions!
I have seen the waiting list and I believe it is new. I mentioned in another thread (or this one?) that it doesn't surprise me. I can't speak to Square's rationale, but remember this IS an American Express card. I'd imagine that Amex's agreement with Square calls for a rigorous vetting process since that is how they handle their own company-issued cards. I've not seen much chatter about this on this board, though. Like you said, it is a new product. It has been tested and rolled out slowly and carefully and, honestly, that gives me some hope that it is ready for prime time. One last thing -- given the very rocky economic outlook, a waitlist seems like a wise plan on Square's and Amex's part. The last thing any of them (or any of us who depend on the financial stability of Square) want or need is a mountain of uncollectible card debt on Square's balance sheet next year. Better safe, than sorry.
I don't know what you mean by is that a good thing, @Paulynne.. Yes, it's a good thing that Square is continuing to expand their financial offerings to its sellers. But if you are asking if it's a good indication that you, personally, might qualify for a card, there is absolutely no way to guarantee that. Take it at face value -- there is a new card option being offered, there is a waitlist, you joined it and were told you'd hear back. Those are facts. Beyond that, looking into our crystal balls is not wise or productive.
Yes, you are correct now on CC or for some it lowered their loan amount by half and they can call and opt out of the card and chose NOW which one they prefer or if you are happy with both you can have both. In the early stages no it was posted and pinned 1 or the other. But, both seem to be working out fine with each other and bugs worked out. So, you and I both were in the test group and didn’t know it for the first loans through Square. Good luck and keep us posted.
I got offered and then approved about 15 minutes later. Now says “your money is on the way”, so I might have it in the account tomorrow morning. For whatever reason, BofA doesn’t seem to get it as quickly as some others say they get their deposits, but whatever.
Hoping mine will come soon!
It does state 1-3 business days and usually they are pretty fast. I had noticed more approvals last Wednesday-Friday than usual and it could be just a little slower is all. I tend to be a Saturday person and I am use to waiting till Monday and sometimes Tuesday even. If there was any issues you would see a message in your dashboard if not could be a mix of both. My Credit Union post if it hits at 2pm it’s there. My old bank 10-12 years ago nope like 12:01 am the next day? Fingers crossed 🤞 you wake up and there it is!
Did you get an idea offer for a credit card? I've been with Square since 2015 and just recently though this forum resized they have a credit card.
Realized*
For the CC offer if you are eligible it will appear in your dashboard just like your previous loan offers.
I’m at 73% and praying I get an offer around 75% or sooner would be nice haha! I’ve gone up 3% last few days so hoping 75% this weekend. I need inventory bad!
Ha, really strange….i got an offer at 70% like, literal minutes after posting the above comment.
Lucky 😮💨 I've been waiting for months for a loan. I'm at 83%.
I’m at 84% 😞
I got my offer this morning! 1-3 business days and my life will be way less stressful.
I FINALLY got my offer on Tuesday this week after being paid completely off (early) March 2. I had my funds in less than 30 min to my square balance
Congratulations! I'm glad you got one, but 100% paid is harsh. I for sure can't wait that long 😞
I need your less stressful life because I am so stressed.
It’s coming, what percentage are you at to paid off? Also how many loans have you had prior?
Thank you for the positivity. I'm currently on my 10th loan with Square.
I'm 85% paid back. 95% of that is the Square loan fee from rolling a smaller loan into a larger loan 13 months ago
Yours is coming, I do see most that are getting new offers the percentage paid back is a lot higher, mines was paid completely off before I got offered my second one, I have yet accepted and it’s still sitting at the same amount. Don’t really need it yet so I’ll either wait til I get a higher offer or whatever
Congratulations 🎊🎈🍾 thank you for sharing!
I saw someone else say that, and I’m at 84%. Come on square gods
For about 3 years I’ve heard about this mystery theory and I am a trend watcher big time! I follow them and pay close attention to what, when and why? It is I shouldn’t say funny when it does happen because loans are very important to help with winter, slow months and supplies etc. The list goes on. I can say that if you want to do a dance around the table 3x and tell the ole algorithm to kick it in and it works then start dancing and keep this board moving! But, I might ask for video proof before I consider it a trend! 😂😂😂 just kidding! Good luck with your getting an offer and keep the sales up, volume up, new customers up. And no negatives. Do all of those and then the dance that will help improve your odds. And then the ole script of if and when you receive one might come at the when part! Keep processing like mad and good luck to you! We are on a roll don’t jinx the board. 🤞
