Square Payment is a new payment processing company, basically like PayPal, but bigger! In this article we will introduce you to Square.
Mostly, Square allows merchants to accept mobile credit card payments via a small device that can be inserted into the port of a phone. However, lately you can use Square to allow online transactions, or simply buy their better products and start accepting tap as well. Square can also be used to pay your employees (Payroll).

Why Square?
Well, using PayPal you can only take money via online transactions from your clients. However, by using Square payment you can do much more for the same price.

Not only is this card reader free at signup, its charge rates are actually lower! Square charger 2.75% / Swipe transaction. So it is even lower than Online transactions.
