Can a Non Profit use square for processing credit card payments to linked account?

[BMRC]

Recently bought a Square as recommended by Bank to help people who pay via credit card to donate or pay for merchandise.  

However, on setup it says -

Thank you for your interest.

We do not currently support your selected business type for payment processing. We will contact you once your business type is supported. In the meantime, Square can work as your point-of-sale solution. You can record sales, manage inventory, run powerful sales reports and analytics, send digital receipts and more.

What do we do now?

Hi @BMRC,

Thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear your organisation is having trouble signing up with Square! At the moment the ABNs we are able to onboard for payments are:

Individual/Sole Trader (with or without an ABN)
Partnerships (with an ABN)
Companies (with an ABN)
Trusts (with an ABN)

We're looking into ways we may be able to onboard more ABN types in the future - many NFP, club and association based ABNs currently require additional regulatory checks and paperwork that our onboarding process is unfortunately not able to accommodate at the moment. If you've purchased hardware already, I recommend returning to the place of purchase for a refund.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help here! You can read more about this here.
