Hello,

I am Kinda confused. If I set up for a Subscriptions, what is the point for a one time payment? Sorry, I guess I missed something?

Have a Great Day and happy Friday!

I don't know what you're referring to I'm afraid - are you talking about subscriptions with checkout links, recurring invoices, Square Installments?

Let me know 🙂

When I set one up, It gives the person to choose a one time payment. Or to Subscribe.  How can you set up subscription only?

Hey @kennyl,

Stepping in for @JustinC here. 

Click on his link above for checkout links and it should give you a walkthrough from our Support Center on how to enable subscription checkout links!

I made the link for on-line check out.. Like the video. But it shows a one time payment also. Like the images I up-loaded. The video did not show that, So I wonder if they can make a one time payment for a subscription, makes no sense to me.

There's not a way to set an online checkout link for subscriptions payments only unfortunately. The subscription option is for available if customers decide they would like to subscribe but it's not required.

Ok got it. thanks Justine, Have a great day

[JustinC]

No prob! You too 🙂 @kennyl

Is there a way to have subscriptions on the actual weebly site without creating a link? Basically, I need customers to be able to go on the webpage and setup a subscription for our products with automatic reoccurring payments.

Hey @MarleysMoss and welcome to the Community!

Not at this time no. It's a feature request right now but not something we currently offer.

@ashc is there any timeline? The feature set that's currently available is nonsensical.

HI @astoriacoffee You should be able to do this through Square Online Checkout Links.

• From Dashboard, choose "Online Checkout"
• Click the "Add button to website" link in upper right corner of screen.
• Choose "Collect Payment" and set the price, frequency, description.
• After submitting that, you will get the options to customize your buy button for your website.
• After clicking "Create Buy Button" you will get the HTML embed code that you can add to your website where you want the button.

Hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have questions.

How do I add this "Buy Button" to my squareup site product pages? 

[frances_a]

Hello @GushJuice and welcome to our Seller Community, we're always happy to see new faces! 

Took a look at your website and it looks like your items already have the option to be added to cart. 

I'm not sure I'm understanding your question, can you please clarify what you need? 

Thank you.

Hi! If you are referring to embedding a "buy button" on your website for a checkout link that you created, from within your dashboard, go to the "Online Checkout" area and click the "Checkout Links" - if you have an existing checkout link, click on it and a window on the right hand side will slide out. On that window, you will see a "Buy button" option with a link to "Create" - that will create the embed code for your checkout link that you can take over to your Square Online website and embed on whichever page you would like.

This link has more information that hopefully helps as well:
