Hello @Piolweb 

I see this is your first post here in the Seller Community and would like to officially welcome you! 

 

I'm not sure that I understand what your goal is here. 

 

Square seamlessly integrates with many other apps, adjusting to your business needs. 

 

If you need to use Square's hardware to accept payments with a different POS system, Squarespace offers that option. 

 

If, instead, you want to use hardware you already own with the Square software, this is not possible. Square engineers security into every product from the ground up. It all comes out of the box with end-to-end encryption. For this reason, external hardware (such as card readers) cannot be used with our software.

 

If the information provided does not cover your particular situation, please provide more details about how you want to use Square and I'll be happy to help. 

 

Thank you

Thank you for clarifying, @Piolweb

 

Unfortunately, Square does not allow the use of external hardware (such as card readers) with our software.

 

We do offer the possibility of using accessories alongside our hardware, such as printers, cash drawers, barcode scanners, etc.

But to protect both your customers and you, devices used to read the information on a card are designed by Square with a security-first approach, and come out of the box with end-to-end encryption. 

 

Hope this information is helpful!
