- You will need to link a United States bank account to process payments using a U.S. Square Account.
- Square requires a transactional bank account (an account that allows for both deposits and withdrawals) to support refunds or chargebacks. This means prepaid cards or online-only accounts (such as PayPal) aren’t supported at this time.
- You will need your full routing and bank account number to link your bank account.
Please refer to the following article:

Square will still only deposit funds to a linked bank account as described by @ACAcatering above. That's the way Square is set up to operate.
What you can do instead is to apply for a Square debit card, where your charged/debited sales are automatically available for use on the card. Here's a link to Square's Debit Card site where you'll find everything you need to know about the program.
