Good to know

  • A deposit comes off the Square bill only when the booking is marked Seated. See deposit not taken off the Square bill.
  • Pending on the Reservation API means it needs Square for Restaurants Plus or Premium.
  • Add account links another Square account.
  • FOH and IT cannot see Square POS.
