Go into settings>checkout>payment types> bitcoin
Just went to my local coffee spot. They have a square terminal and asked if they accept bitcoin. He said that I sss the first one that ever asked them about it. He tried looking where to enable it but couldn’t figure it out.
Where is the settings to enable for retail users? nostr:npub17xu3rtcu0ftqw03mswa8a2ngz3nsgrs0h0wjv4z942qwvhp8fs3qzcadls I know you had an issue figuring that out as well

It’s not as easy as that! That’s simply to turn it on. But the square app also needs to be in POS standard mode for Bitcoin to show up at checkout. If it’s in retail mode or any other it won’t show up!!
I'm in standard mode
Awesome — I was just wondering if the coffee shop was too. Could be part of the issue.
But if they’re in retail mode, won’t they need to reconfigure all of their inventory for standard mode?
Yup!!! I think so! It’s a big issue square has to fix!
Gahhh. I was so close to being my towns first bitcoin purchase. We need to fix this nostr:npub1ds3hmzemzgp9rsuvyvxqdk0y3uxnq9m903dktjxrvyfwk9w99t4sc2hzcn !!
Yeah it’s the retail mode that doesn’t have it
yea i'm running into this - i've got bitcoin enabled for the account and it works for the POS app but not the Square for Retail app, which is what this store requires (complex inventory system, etc.)
It’s wild to me they haven’t thought of enabling this for every mode?!! Feels like a big oversight on part of the team. Nothing that an update can’t fix but for now it’s a big, big hurdle. Even though you can still get your Bitcoin conversions.
absolutely!
weirder that they don't even mention it in the docs. had me thinking i was just missing a setting somewhere.
Me too!! It was driving me crazy. Weirder is that no one at Square seem aware of the issue… yet?
Perhaps nostr:npub1ds3hmzemzgp9rsuvyvxqdk0y3uxnq9m903dktjxrvyfwk9w99t4sc2hzcn can confirm…
