Common Questions

Do I need Square to use Welcome?

No—Square is optional. You can enter menus manually.

Will changes in Square automatically update Welcome?

Depends on your sync settings. You can re-import anytime to pull updates.

What if I use Square at some locations but not others?

Connect only the locations that use Square. Others operate independently.

Is there a cost for the Square integration?

The basic integration is included in Welcome. No extra charge.
