hi, I have bought a square reader 2nd generation a week or so ago, and tried to set up my Square account today. It’s for a sole-proprietorship retail account as Im trying to sell art. When i put all of my information and it tells me that I can take payments, it brings me back to a message saying my account needs to be activated. Ive done this 10+ times now.
My square reader also won’t connect to my phone, despite it being listed in the “connected devices” section on the Square app. Every-time it tries to connect, a popup with the message “account needs to be activated” appears. Ive tried setting up my account on phone, ipad, and desktop, nothing has worked.
I need this to be resolved as soon as possible. Ive sent an email and Im trying out the square community here, please let me know what to do ASAP.
