Enabling Cash App Pay as a payment method

Cash App Pay is an accessible payment option for all Cash App users. Payments are funded directly from the customer’s Cash App balance or linked debit card. The Cash App Pay authenticator securely verifies customer payments, allowing transactions through both mobile redirection and QR code scanning.

How do customers authenticate payments?
- Mobile Checkout: Users checking out on mobile devices are automatically redirected to the Cash App Pay app for seamless authentication. Once authenticated, they return to your site without any extra steps.
- Desktop Checkout: Users on desktop devices authenticate by scanning a QR code with their mobile device.
Enabling Square for in-person transactions (POS)
With Square, you can sell your products from the comfort of your home, at fairs, or wherever you choose. This payment method allows you to accept payments using a mobile device with your Point of Sale system.
