WooCommerce Square Payment Gateway

The WooCommerce Square Payment Gateway lets you accept card payments in your WooCommerce store using Square. It bridges Square’s checkout flow with WordPress and WooCommerce, so customers can pay without leaving the store experience you’ve built with your theme or Elementor templates. This plugin helps solve the common challenge of adding a reliable payment method that updates orders correctly inside WooCommerce.

Once configured, the gateway connects your Square account to WooCommerce, processes payments during checkout, and keeps order status aligned with Square’s payment events through webhook-driven updates. The result is a smoother checkout, clearer payment handling, and better operational consistency for store admins.
