  1. "When your friend activates a Square account through your link, they can process up to $1,000 in credit card sales for free during their first 180 days.
  2. For each friend who successfully activates a Square account, you get free processing on your next $1,000 in sales over the next 180 days."

 

I found the above in the account section (Get Free Processing) of my Square Dashboard.

Hi @Famfoods 

Do you happen to have a link to the post you saw this?  The only ability that I am aware of for free processing is with a referral link program.

I got referred to by a friend who has Square, and the ad said that her amd me should have the first $1000 or first 180 days free of service. But I am being charged fees. Why?

Look at the actual deposit report. When I participated in the Apple Pay Contactless program, the fee showed up on the sales report but was reimbursed on the deposit. Perhaps the same thing is happening for you? If not I would suggest to contact the support directly.

Right on, @ThierrLRC! 👍

 

@woodworkxbyjan, you can find more information on tracking your free processing in this article as well. Hope that helps clear things up! 😀

Hi @Nilukamon - You should be able to see the free processing within your Square Dashboard once your friend finishes the sign up process.

Sorry to hear it, @Nilukamon. If your friend activated their account and you're still not seeing the free processing in your online Square Dashboard, please let our Support Team know. They'll make sure everything gets sorted out ASAP. 💯

I referred a friend and got the confirmation email that they signed up. However, I didn’t get the free processing, but my friend did. I contacted customer support and they told me I didn’t use the right link. That’s BS. I got the email confirming they signed up. Given the number of people commenting they are not receiving their free processing either, it appears Square is scamming their customers.

I was given a refferal code by my coach but when I was setting up my account with the chip reader I never saw a spot to enter that code. Later I realized it was a link not a code. Is there a way I can still use the link to get the free processing even though I’ve already set up my account?

Welcome to Square @RLeopardi! I've moved your post here as other sellers had the same question.

 

If you've already set up your account go ahead and reach out to our Support team. They'll be able to help you with this!

check your referral status here.  https://squareup.com/dashboard/account/referrals

 

all charges are taken out like normal and then credited back upon deposit.
