Payment Type for Tokens Instead of Cash/Card

[jackscrackers]

The title of this thread has been edited by a Square Moderator from the original: "Unsing Square Terminal to account for Farmers Market tokens instead of cash or credit payments"

I participate in Farmers Markets where one payment option is prepaid tokens instead of cash or cards.  Does anyone have experience accounting for such thing when taking payments on a Square Terminal?  Do you call it “other” payments or something else

Hi @jackscrackers - I see this is your first post in the Square Community so I'd like to officially welcome you! 🎉👏 My name is Violet and I'm one of the Community Moderators. I'm happy to help you with this 🙂

Yes, I would suggest using the "Other" payment type, or, you can choose "other gift card or certificate". Here's a support article with some more information on using different payment types in Square. If it would be helpful, you can also add a note to the sale during checkout to mention the customer paid with their tokens.

I hope this answers your question, but please let me know if I can help with anything else~
