Issues with Payment Processing Delays – Any Reliable Workarounds?

[fiona887]

Hey everyone,

I've been experiencing some unexpected delayed payment processing when making transactions through Square. Sometimes, payments get caught in pending status for much longer than usual, which affects my business operations sometimes.

I have even checked my own bank settings in advance to guarantee that my bank account is standing good, though sometimes the system doesn't deliver as expected; some third parties can optimize payment and reduce waits. Have individuals ever used something like automation/external integrations to speed the process of doing payments?

Recently, I came across Delta Executor tool. It seems to offer some kind of automation capabilities. Has anyone tried similar tools, or do you have any alternative suggestions to improve transaction speeds?

Would love to hear your thoughts and any experiences you've had with similar issues!

I'm not sure if this is a real post or spam trying to get links to a Roblox hacking tool or you linked a wrong program.

If it is real and you are experiencing delays in Square transfers there isn't anything that I know that you can do.  I've been with Square and would say that 99.999% of the time the transfer is pending the next business day in my bank account like it should be.  Only times I can remember issues is when there were Square network outages causing delays.

March 2025. Square very slow - it never worked - just spinning and spinning. Customer ended up going to bank to get cash. This is a problem. In 2024 it was working better.

Hello @Badham 👋

Welcome to the community!

Was this the only instance of slow payment processing? 

I would recommend checking your internet connection and running a speed test if you experience issues with payment processing. Connectivity issues cause payment processing to slow down. 

If there are issues on our end, we report them on our Status Page, so you can keep an eye there too.

Thank you ✨
