Payment Setup

Connect Square and choose a location

Authorize a Square account and select the location used for the chosen payment channel.

Before you start

  • Sales → Payment Setup
  • Your account needs Payments: Manage setup permission to open and configure Payment Setup. Viewing cash-drawer activity requires Payments: View status.

What success looks like

  • Square shows the selected location as active for the channel. Disconnecting removes the connections described in the confirmation.

Quick start

Choose the task you need. Each task has its own steps.

Connect Square or choose its location

  1. 1Find Square under the payment channel you want to configure. If it is already connected, keep that connection and use its Location selector.
  2. 2For a new connection, click Connect with Square, authorize the correct Square account, and return to MintLGS. Reconnect an existing account only when MintLGS asks you to renew its authorization or grant required permissions.
  3. 3Select the Location for this channel, then click Save & Activate.
  4. 4Check that Square shows Connected and Active for the selected location and payment channel.
  5. 5Click Use as default if checkout should use Square by default.

Check an existing Square connection

  1. 1If a verification check fails temporarily, click Check again. Reconnect when MintLGS says the authorization needs to be renewed.

Disconnect Square

  1. 1To disconnect, click Disconnect, review which connections will be removed, and confirm.

Troubleshooting

Choose the symptom that matches what you see.

No usable location appears

Check the authorized Square account and available locations, then return to the location selection.

A check failed but the account was connected

A temporary verification failure preserves saved setup. Use Check again before replacing it.
