Can I use Square abroad?

I'm in Canada, and travel to the UK to perform comedy. Audiences have the option to tip after the show, and I was wondering if I could use my Square reader (registered in Canada) in the UK to accept tips?

Hi @beeboop- Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Square Seller Community👋😊 Happy to provide you with some more information on Square's International Availability. 

Here are some further details that I've pulled from this Support Article

 

Cross-border card payments are unsupported. This means that card transactions attempted outside of the country where you activated your Square account can’t be processed with Square. However, you can accept cash transactions while traveling internationally.

 

Note: If you’re in the country where you activated your Square account, you can process international cards.

 

You can create multiple Square accounts, each with its own country selection, but a different email address and different identity verification information is required for each account.


I hope this information is helpful but please do let us know if you have any additional questions.
