Busy retail owners have been asking for an easier way to stay on top of feature launches and updates. So today we’re introducing The Check Out, a retail release by Square.

We are excited to introduce our newest feature, forecasted labor costs. Available with any Shifts plan or Retail, Restaurant, and Appointments Plus or Premium plan. 
We are excited to introduce our newest feature, clock-in geofencing. Available with a Shifts Plus, Retail Plus, Restaurants Plus, and Appointments premium subscription. 
Since introducing Square for Retail Plus in 2017, we have launched over 100 features including inventory stock counting, sell-through inventory reporting, and Cost of Good Sold reporting. Starting November 14, 2023, the Square for Retail Plus subscription will reflect an updated price of $89/month per location for new subscribers to reflect the increased value of the current software offering.
Create and print barcode labels from new devices! In addition to Square Dashboard, you can now access label printing on your Square Register, Square Stand, iPhone and iPad. This functionality is available to Square for Retail Plus subscribers only. 
We’re excited to announce that you can now deduct tare weights from items sold by weight directly through your Square for Retail point of sale.
We’re excited to announce that we added the ability to create shipping rate profiles that can be applied during checkout from Square for Retail. This feature will allow you to create predetermined rate profiles based on where the order is being sent and the order total. During checkout, the shipping rate will automatically be calculated based on the eligible profiles you’ve set up, so you don’t need to input manually while building up a cart.
Archive items from your Square Dashboard to make managing your item catalog and inventory reports easier than ever. You and your staff can now designate items to ‘Archive’ status to keep your item history, and view your catalog and inventory reports with simplicity. 
We’re excited to announce that we’ve added the ability for Square for Retail Plus sellers to create and manage Bundles in Square Dashboard! This feature allows you to combine multiple components into one item bundle and sell those items together while still having the ability to track inventory of the individual components.
