Square Online Release Notes - August 13, 2020
Square Online Release Notes - August 13, 2020

New name: Square Online

We've heard from you that the term "online store" doesn't accurately reflect all the ways your businesses engage with customers online. That’s why we’ve updated the name of Square Online Store to Square Online. As of today, you can access the product via the “Online” app icon on the Square Dashboard or by selecting “Online” in the left navigation. When you receive orders, they will now say “Square Online” instead of “Online Store.”

 

 

EDIT August 19, 2020: The URL of the Square Online product page will be updated later this month to square.online. Don't worry, if you have the previous one bookmarked, it will automatically redirect to the new URL.

 

Manage multiple sites on one account

Now you can create and manage more than one website from your Square account.

 

Let’s say, for example, you have two business locations and you’d like each to have its own website and URL. You can create a new site from the dropdown menu on the upper right of the Online dashboard using the Add site option:

When you add a new site, you will be given an option to associate it with business locations you’ve previously set up in your Square dashboard. If you do not yet have the location established in Square to which you want to link your website, do that first. You can create and edit your business locations in your Account Settings (also accessible from the dropdown menu on the upper right of the main Square dashboard).

 

After you’ve added a new site in your Online dashboard, you can select between your sites for editing using the site switcher on the upper left of the Online dashboard:

Pickup and delivery scheduling

Buyers can now schedule their delivery or pickup order from the Checkout screen. You can enable scheduling from the Order Timing settings section in the slide-out blade on the right when you select Edit location within your pickup & delivery settings.

Your customers will see the option to schedule their order on the Checkout screen. We know this is a highly-requested feature, and we’re working on incorporating it into additional screens that will help your customers discover it. Stay tuned for updates!

 

 

Additional site editor improvements

There are now more banner layouts to choose from, and we’ve added new type scaling options to give you more font sizes. 

 

Also, more Google fonts have been added to the editor to give you additional design flexibility: Vesper Libre bold, Vesper Libre reg, Butler bold, Tenor sans, Playfair bold, IBM Plex bold, IBM plex mono reg, Proza libre semibold, Proza libre regular, Courier Prime bold, Courier Prime regular.
