🆕 Improved checkout accuracy with sound feedback

Keep checkout and inventory accurate. Square Point of Sale now plays a distinct alert when a scanned barcode isn’t found in your catalog—helping retail teams catch unrecognized items, prevent missed charges, and maintain accurate inventory.

 

When a product barcode doesn’t match an item in your catalog, Square Point of Sale now plays a clear audio alert so your team knows it wasn’t added to the sale. This update helps retail sellers spot catalog gaps in real time, train staff to verify every scan, and ensure every item is paid for. Available globally in version 6.82 for all devices and locales with both built-in and external barcode scanners.
