Is it likely that square will release a new terminal with camera for customer management qr codes?

[Bounceguy]

Hi, I’ve just purchased 2x Square Terminal but unless I connect a smart phone, ipad or barcode scanner, I cannot scan qr codes for quick customer directory. Is it likely, and how soon might it be that square re-design their terminal to feature a camera for the use of qr codes? Is it worth sending them back and waiting for the next gen terminal to be released with the possibility of a camera?

Hi @Bounceguy 🙂 thanks for your post. 

Our hardware team is always working on new products and features based on seller feedback like yours. However, I can confirm that there aren't any upcoming updates to the Square Terminal that would include a camera for scanning QR codes in the immediate future.

With that in mind, I wouldn't suggest returning your devices, but ultimately, the decision should be what works best for your business.

We post all product and hardware updates on our Product Updates page, and I'll make sure to tag you if anything changes in the

future.
