The title of this thread has been edited from the original: Referral Program
Why is there still no Referral Program? With the constant bugs and rising cost we are about ready to switch to another platform.
@FFH251 Ah! I misunderstood you. I thought you were referring to a “refer Square” program, but now I see you meant you want a customer referral program. My bad.
Re: Ice Cream Social…. Did you know that it is free for Square Online customers? At least, that is what their listing in the Square App Marketplace says. That seems like a great deal to me — especially compared to the other referral apps I’ve looked at that charge much more than $19.99 + 5%.
Hello @FFH251. Square has always had a referral program that gives you free processing and a hardware discount. Here’s the link to it. It can also be found in your web dashboard > Account & Settings > Get free processing.
As for you other part, higher prices are a problem. But I hope you don’t think that only Square is raising prices and fees. In these very troubled economic times (that will only get worse tomorrow), everyone is — including most of us as sellers if we want to make any money. As I always do at the first of the year, I checked out the costs for my Square account vs, switching to one of the big-two competitors. What I found was that after I purchased all the new hardware needed and factored in their monthly fees (which they use to make it seem like you are getting a good deal on lower card processing rates), I was going to pay slightly more every year. But, of course, that is just my experience. Yours might differ since you seem to be dealing with constant bugs that I’m definitely not having to deal with.
Good luck.
Yea it’s funny how squareup has a referral system to grow yet they won’t create something that allows their customers to do the same thing. I’m sorry ice cream social or whatever they are pushing taking 5% commission plus base is a joke.

Well their websites down so not even sure they are still in business. We just want a simple way for customers to be able to share discounts and receive discounts. It should be that hard to implement into marketing emails.
Shouldn’t
