Was anyone affected by Square crashing today?

Been down 8 hours so far. No one can access money, transfers or take payments or even see their merchant balance. Pretty crazy. I'm sure it's screwed a lot of small businesses over today. A lot of people only have one point of sale service.

I always found square to be a big hassle and we only used it sparingly

No, but I had a triangle being obtuse that really fricked up my day

Hopefully this is a wakeup call to the increasing numbers of small business that put "NO CASH" signs in their windows.

Some mad mammas when little league concession stand was cash only in the 110 heat.

Yes, I was at 3 separate businesses. fricked me pretty good all day today. Employees were not able to clock in to log hours and my registers were interrupted mid shift by a restart. The entire thing is a clusterfrick. I dont really care anymore, the government takes all my money anyway

Well done. That's a cute thing to say...

I already use one for CC processing. I use Square strictly for POS and Payroll. My businesses are more cash focused regardless

I use Square mainly for invoices and scheduling. The scheduling ap is still working.

I don't think small business owners understand how much going with the recognizable brands for payments shaves off their bottom line.
However, especially when you deal with businesses with little to no IT or payments expertise, they are subject to vendor lock in, because they use the payment system for scheduling appointments, etc.

Event at Mahalia Jackson turned to "Cash Only"
Assume this is the reason

Cant wait to see the shitshow at Copper Mnt for Union Peak Fest today since the whole resort runs on Square.

square doesnt make you sign one of those "small print" contracts.. easy for most small business. money can be accessed immediately if needed

I didn't get my direct deposit last night so my butler is having to go the bank for me and get cash.
Thoughts and prayers.
