How do I sell an item for $0.00?

I have been asked to donate an item for a raffle. How do I take it out of inventory and mark it as donation and not a sale?

Hey there 

You can add the item to a transaction and apply a 100% discount. You can add notes to the item for your records that this was a donated item. The transaction can be zeroed out using the Other tender option. 

I hope this helps - let me know if you need anything else. 👌

Hi @Schmidtknecht,

 

Thanks for reaching out to The Seller Community! 

 

While we don't have a way to sell an item at $0. I would suggest following @Russell solution for adding the 100% discount for donations. 

 

I completely understand how frustrating this can be and understand this is not a fix to to the issue. I would strongly suggest submitting a feature request. This will help our product team get visibility and track other Sellers’ interest in your request.


Important: When submitting a request, make sure to include the desired feature, and provide the details of how this feature will help your business succeed (how would you use it and what you expect from it).

 

I appreciate your feedback, and letting us know how your being affected by this.

Hello Mayap,

 

I tried the 100 % discount and it did not work.  I will submit a feature request.

 

Thanks,

Doug

Has this feature been fixed yet? It's been years now!

We need a way to show that an item has been sold to a client and INVOICED (not through POS) and that we discounted the total to $0 owed. 

I can't see why Square cannot make this feature possible unless they are only trying to collect the % on the $1 sale?

What would be the requirement that we have to sell an item for at least $1 through the invoice?

We highly need the $0.00 feature as well. If this is not fixed we will need to switch away from Square and chose another invoicing company.
