Can I access Square services from Nigeria?

[Cash2Asset]

Am a new seller on Square and I have issues concerning the fees charged for the in-person and not in-person payment.

A m in Nigeria, it is not going to be competitive if as a seller you have to pay 2.6 to 3.5% + 10 to 15 cent.

I do not know if a competitive fees can be charged on seller outside the U.S.

Hey! Thanks for reaching out about this. I understand the concern around fees, but at this time, since we do not support credit card processing in Nigeria, you do not have to worry about fees. We only charge fees for payments taken with a credit card, and since you can only process cash and check payments for reporting purposes, you will be able to use our Square system without credit card processing fees.

While Square can be used internationally to record payments, track inventory, and grow your business – payment processing, including processing through Square’s API, is only available in specific countries. View the list of countries with payment processing. Payment card processing isn’t supported outside of the countries on this list.

We are looking to bring payment processing to other countries, and we’ll be sure to announce any further expansion.

Hello, how can I set up Square services in Nigeria? What are the software and hardware I need to buy to use Square for a supermarket where people have to pay in person by swiping their debit cards on an ATM?

Please treat as urgent!

Card processing hasn't reached Nigeria yet so you won't be able to use Square. @Minimini
