Afterpay Integration to Checkout using Square Payment Gateway

[sammi13]

I'm a little confused, so this question may not even make sense.. I have an independent website that has it's own checkout process and payments are processed using Square as my Gateway.

I have opted In for Afterpay with Square, but don't seem to see anything different on my checkout page and am wondering if there is something else I will need to do.

Is the Square/Afterpay integration only available when using Square Online platform for your ecommerce?

Hopefully this makes sense!

I just want to have afterpay at checkout for my customers and can't seem to wrap my head around it.

Hey @sammi13,

What online store platform are you using?

Afterpay is available on many different online store platforms, however it's not the same as your web store integrating with Square for card payments.

In order to integrate with Afterpay, your web store provider will need to offer support for Afterpay. Before Square acquired Afterpay, these were both available as different products for web-stores to use to take payments, and things will continue this way for the foreseeable future. You can view a list of online store platforms that support Afterpay here.

The recent announcement of Square supporting Afterpay was the release of Afterpay as an option on Square Online stores (joining the other online platforms listed in the link above).

Hope this makes sense, let me know if you have any questions 🙂

Thanks for the quick reply.

I currently use an online booking system - Resova, and square is the gateway for payments. Resova doesn't seem to have support for Afterpay as a payment option, and I have sent them a ticket as well to ask how I can get this to all work!

Thanks again. Hopefully I can figure it out 🙂

@sammi13 I took a look and yeah, it looks like Resova support Square payments but not Afterpay. Hopefully this changes in the future! The more demand they see from their customers hopefully the more likely it is!

Hi, Just wondering whether there has been any further discussion on this topic?

Square now owns afterpay and offers it as a standard payment option, but i am still unable to add it to my online booking flow.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @sammi13,

Are you still using Resova for your online bookings? While it doesn't look like there is an integration between Resova, and Afterpay at the moment, we'd be happy to pass this suggestion onto our partnerships team again.
