Hello I have this error when I try to preform a checkout. Is there a way to have a workaround ?

Please this is very important for my buisiness.

This is the request that causes it :

and in the sandbox token it works.

Is it because I am bases in France and this functionality is not available in France ?

Thank you.

It seems like the application is not authorized by your Square Account.

You cannot use the sandbox access token for your Square account. 

Make sure you have all access tokens are correct in your code.

These would be in the header of your message:

I'm having the same issue. Also is happening in the Transaction endpoint.
Check the full permissions token screen.Permissions OAuth.

Hey @gosugoon - Unfortunately, Square API is only available within the US at this time. If you are located outside of the country, it won't work.

Hope that helps clarify things for you!
