Sporting club setup

[TraceyAmey1]

Hi - I am after some help setting the reader up for a sporting club.  I am getting the following message:

Thank you for your interest.
We do not currently support your selected business type for payment processing. We will reach out 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.

Not sure what to do as why would they list sporting/leisure if you are unable to use for a sports club. Getting support is virtually impossible, so I am turning to you guys for help......

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi TraceyAmey1,

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! We're hoping to have something in place to better serve clubs in the future and are actively working on a solution.

@TraceyAmey1 if your club has an ABN you should be able to sign up to Square for payments now! Read more here 🙂
