[Improvement] Team member badges available on Square Shop

[#1]

Hi sellers!

Square Staff is now offering team member badges directly on Square Shop, unlocking more secure badges for the US and Canada, and expanding to Australia and the UK. Previously, team member badges were only available through a third-party website in the U.S and Canada. 

Sellers who have Advanced Access or Square for Restaurants Plus/Premium will be able to order directly from Square Shop at a lower cost of $29 for a 20 pack (previously offered at $40 with our third-party vendor).

For enhanced business security, team members and managers can use team member badges instead of passcodes to get access to only what they need, even when you can’t be there yourself. This allows for faster clock ins, overrides, and device logins all from a single tap. You will no longer need to purchase badges from our third-party website and can now purchase directly on Square along with other Square hardware. Purchase badges in the Square Shop and see the help article for more information.

We love the Square badges, is there any way to stop them from requiring a pin every so often? We completly want to eliminate them.

Hi @Headpinz, at the moment, you need to have passcodes enabled to use badges. You can use badges in place of any action where you might use a passcode (log in/out, clock in/out and overrides).

@kathyz I understand by why the need to randomly enter code again? Makes the card useless.

Hi @Headpinz, yes there should be. It sounds like you may either have an error or something isn't configured properly. Please reach out to your AM or seller support and we will be happy to help troubleshoot for you!

@kathyz we’re going to test them again to see if maybe it was something during our beta.  Thanks!
