Square Payment Module for Zen Cart [Support Thread]

[project jayden]

no.

i really do not want to support 2 code bases. i have this module here that includes apple pay and google pay.

i probably should put a redirect on the old module.

i have plans for additional updates to this newer module to include other things that square offers as part of their API. those updates include a BNPL option, and potentially a card on file payment method.

as soon as i find some time, i'm planning on doing those updates to it.

customers who purchase that module get the updates free of charge for some indeterminate amount of time.

best.

Does the commercial version also have afterpay support?

Question for Carlwhat. I have Square WebPay 1.0.4 installed in ZenCart 2.1.0. My webhost now has my server set to PHP 8.1. Credit card charges are still working with Square Up but I'm getting some errors. I see all over that people are recommending your newer ZenCart module, but the link they use goes to an "Out Of Stock" page. I just seen this part of thread this evening, you and swguy chat about that what sounds like a combo version with Square Up. That your Square Up app will come with Google Pay and Apple Pay options. I'm unfamiliar with those. Are those like credit cards that they can use to charge on Square Up? Or do I have to take a merchant account out each with both Google Pay and Apple Pay in order to take that type of payment? And, if that is so, can I turn off the Google Pay and Apple Pay in your module and only take common credit cards via Square Up Payments only?

You do not have to use Google and/or Apple pay. You can use Square only.
You can set-up Google and Apple pay from your Square account if you want to use their services.

The latest version of the Square Integration has switches to turn on or off these two payment methods (as well as Credit Cards).

merchant accounts with google pay and apple pay are NOT necessary to use those digital wallets. all of those transactions go to your square dashboard.

and you can control which payment method you want to allow via the zc payment configuration page.

so, yes, you can turn those off and only take `common` credit cards.

Thanks todoonada, swguy, and carlwhat, for your advice on this matter. Our main sale item is a small business seasonal cold weather item for cattlemen. We don't really want to deal with all the bookwork required with multiple payment accounts. So, I'm happy to hear that there are options to turn off the unwanted payment methods. I appreciate all your advise!
