How to program Square to celebrate a milestone?

[centraltex]

I would like to celebrate a few milestones and want to know if there is a way to have Square notify you. For example, I would like to celebrate my 100th customer, 500th customer, $1,000 in sales and $10,000, etc. Is there anyway to have Square pop a flag when this happens? I want to be right there in the moment to give customer a discount or comp their order.

There is no auto reponse or pop up for this.  How ever you can find this information on the Dashboard home screen in the Gross sales box.  You will just have to refresh the screen to keep it updated.  You can also monitor this form the Dashboard app.

Thanks for the reply! I'm ok with using the dashboard for revenue because it can be done with employees at anytime, but there should be someway that Square could do it for customers or sales transactions. Id be too busy to count and having to click refresh everytime would be a pain. From my point of view, if a customer wins a prize or gets a discount they promote this through social media and word of mouth which is publicity for the company. Is there not a way to incorporate it within the receipt number, or set the dashboard to a live update or some other option?

If you are wanting to track your store sales when you have the 1000s customer make a sale you will have to do that with the dashboard information. Square receipt numbers are not sequential so you can't use that.

If you want to track a customer and reward them for the 1000s purchase you can do this through Square Loyalty.  Now with Square Loyalty, you can only do one thing so you will have to pick reward based on the number of transactions or the $ amount spent.

If you do a reward for 1000 transactions then it will reward them every 1000 transactions.

Thanks for thinking through this, @RHatch and for asking the question, @centraltex. I think this is a really cool idea - to celebrate your milestones and incorporate your customers into the celebration. 

@RHatch is right that you can't set up the app or dashboard to do it automatically for you right now, and you'll have to use workarounds as suggested. But I'll tell our development team about your idea to see if it's something that could potentially be added to the roadmap. Thanks again for the post, @centraltex! 🙌
