Is there a way to add Square payments to my website (site isn't through square)?

Is there a way to use Square Up to accept credit card payments on my website (similar to how PayPal does it by adding the HTML code to the page)?  My domain and website is under GoDaddy.

@ellesmauikitche - Hello! While we don't currently offer an off the shelf integration with GoDaddy, I can definitely see how this would be a use feature! Alternatively, with the help of web developer, you would be able to leverage our Ecommerce API to collect payments online with your custom site. You can check out more details on our Developer Center.

I was wondering about the same thing.  I also use GoDaddy to host my website.  Sad I can't link my square acount to my website!

I'm confused about this answer. ???  I just got off the phone with Square support and was told I could copy and past my Square store URL as a link on my website.  ??? So client click on the link and they leave my site but go to my Square store.   I haven't published the page yet but on the test preview it appears to work just fine.  I was also told I could copy/paste the URL in emails and that tested fine.  Can anyone clarify?

Me too. Sounds like you can do it but it's not simple and requires a developer.

@DogSmart @ellesmauikitche - You can certainly copy and paste the URL for your Square Online Store in your GoDaddy site, but ellesmauikitche already had a store set up through a different company. They just wanted to use Square as their check out, not for their actual store. Hope this helps!

Square,

Can you request that GoDaddy offer the Square Up logo as well as the PayPal logo for selling? Thank you. Seems like Square would want their logo there. Just saying...

Hello Alanah. I am not an IT person but had an IT professional assisting me. I wanted to add a "Pay Now" button to my GoDaddy website. We were in the process of doing this but when it came time to show the payment icon, the only offering was PayPal's logo. I use Square for all my business needs and don't want to confuse my customers by showing PayPal logo when I use Square. I have been trying to communicate and ask Square if this might not be a good opportunity to gain more brand recognition. I hope this helps describe my situation. Andrea

Thanks for providing more insight @Sparkle5. I am actually going to step in for Alanah while she is off. 

 

Square does offer the "Buy Now" button that you can add to your website:

 

To manage settings for your buy buttons built with Square Online Checkout:

 

In your online Square Dashboard, go to Online Checkout. In the right hand corner you should see "Add Button to Website."

 

I am hoping this is what you are looking for, or helpful ! If not please let me know.

Hi MAYAP - 

I think I'm in the right area for this question even though I don't see any current activity.  

My question is regarding my Go Daddy Website, and wanting to integrate my Square "online and in-person" shopping experience rather than using GD for online shopping and square for in person shopping.  

Is there and API or HTML code to for square that I can use to integrate with GD?  I want to discontinue my "Marketing and eCommerce with GD, but I want to make sure I don't break anything along the way.  Thank you.

Hey there @Purple777 I am happy to help! To clarify you want to integrate Square with the Godaddy site or use us for in-person payments?

No - I already have that in place.   I want to have my online store integrated with my Go Daddy website.  In essence, Square would be my online store.

Hello, @Purple777 👋 Violet here, following up for @MayaP. It looks like you still need help with this, so I kept the ball rolling on your inquiry.

If you want to integrate Square Online with your existing GoDaddy site, you follow the steps listed in this Support Article.


I hope this information is helpful and hits the mark but please do let me know if you have any additional questions 🙂

I too use go daddy and want to accept payments through my square account, do I need to essentially use one of the 3rd party apps to actually link the square POS directly to my website?  I don't want my customers re=directed to my square store I want them to shop, purchase and check out on my site but have payment processed through my square account...

I would like to know this too.  I want my customers to shop on my site and just check out using Square.

Thanks for your post @barberdenise! 

 

You're right, in order to accept payments with Square you will need to use one of our eCommerce apps. Unfortunately, we don't integrate with GoDaddy at this time and if that changes in future we'll update this thread. It looks like you're not the only seller is interested in this! 

 

@cherylk If you haven't already, I recommend checking out this post: How to connect Square to your eCommerce Partner site. There is also information about Square's e-Commerce API​​​​​​​ on our Support Center. 😀

In response to: Unfortunately, we don't integrate with GoDaddy at this time and if that changes in future we'll update this thread.

It looks like you're not the only seller is interested in this! 

Square is missing out on some income, not being able to support GoDaddy Websites!  

I went all the way thru the set up process only to find out that I couldn't link Square to our non-profit to collect donations. 

Updating this thread wont alert me to whatever you do to change this, because now I have to go look for a different app to help us. And I probably won't be coming back.

Square is definitely missing out on some revenue! I really want to stop using PayPal to take payments on my website so I have all sales processed through my Square account. Please send GoDaddy some roses and chocolate or something so you can make the integration happen!

Try this out this is the only way i have found that works hopefully this is what everyone is looking for  

 

http://www.jotform.com/square

 

I use this on my wix website as a html snipplet that i embed on my website, i am sure it will work the same way on all website builders that have a html code snipplet that you can enter and embed.

there is a free starter version and also a paid version which you can choose from both work fine.

Yes, Jotform will work. I set it up for another organization. I just want something more seamless on my own website.
