Can I use multiple Square readers with the same Square account?

[burgos005]

I new in this and I would like to use 2 square readers with the same bank account? Can I?

[Caty]

Sure thing! We're happy to help, and I'm really excited for your event tomorrow! You'll have to let me know how it goes.

A couple of things to clarify:

1) Here's a list of the supported devices you can use with a Square reader: https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/3887-devices-compatible-with-the-square-magstripe-and-chip-c...

2) The readers themselves do not need to be activated, and they can be used on any device. The key is making sure the Square Register app downloaded on the device, and you've logged into the account. You cannot accept a payment unless you are logged into the app.

Hope that all makes sense, and please feel free to keep asking questions if you have them! Also - if you're going to be in an area with spotty cell phone reception, you may want to enable Offline Mode as a backup. Here's directions on how to do that: https://squareup.com/help/ca/en/article/5095-process-payments-with-offline-mode

Good luck!!

My employees are trying to log into the App on their phones using the email address I have set up in Register (mobile location) for them and using their device codes that were sent to them, but Square won't recognize their email address.  If they log in with Create Account, it thinks they want to open an new Register account.  We're stuck in a vicious circle.

I do not want a Square reader. I have one.

I want to knmow how to add people to my account, so they can check invoices, make an invoice, see financial status (who has paid, who has not, etc...)

I want to add two of my bookeepers! How do I link them to my account??????????????????

[Russell]

Hi @Junglequeen - sorry to hear about the trouble!

To give other people their own access to your account, you will need to subscribe to Employee Management. Your bookkeepers can be set as Administrators or Authorized Users.  

If you would like, you can call Square Support.

this didn't help.  I have 2 readers and 2 different checking accounts.  I just tried the new reader and it looks like it will be going to put the money in Bank account A but I want to put it into another bank account.  How do I set that up.

[Chad]

Hello @Studio2610, I'm sorry that none of the previous comments covered your situation, but I can provide some clarity. 

Square Readers are not connected to any specific bank account. Think of your reader as a universal remote, it can be hooked up to a number of devices and isn't permanently married to any of them. 

Your bank account is directly linked to your Square Account. No matter what device you sign into, wether it be your own device, or a friends iPad the payments will still land in your linked bank account. 

Currently you can only have one bank account linked to a location at a time. To add your second bank account you would have to create a new location on your Square Dashboard. We have a great Support Center article called Manage Multiple Locations with Square, this article will give you a step by step guide on how to create a new location. 

If you want to switch between checking accounts you will have to sign out of the Point of Sale app and select a new location to sign into. 

If you have any other questions please let me know! 🙂

Is it possible to order a second square reader at the same location?

[RHatch]

Yes, You can pick one up from a retailer or order one from Square here.

This reply was created from merging an existing thread: Can multiple devices & multiple Square Readers work with a single Square account?

I don't have an account yet. What I'm wondering is can I and my business partner each use our own phones with separate readers for the same account?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

[Ron]

The answer is YES. After you have your account set up with Square you must log in to your account. You can log in with your phone, your business partners phone, an iPad etc. As long as you are logged in you are ready to go! Hope this helps.

We tried this but couldnt sign in on her phone

How do I get the APP on my cell phone.  I signed up yesterday for a new account.  I got a new phone I-6 as well and when they transferred my info to the new phone they took the Square off of my apps.

Help me with this.  Myrtle Pilgreen

Can two people be logged in simultaneously on different phones?

[Sean]

Hi @aadornato1133 and welcome to the Seller Community! You can be logged in on as many devices as you'd like. 👍

[jokersarewild]

If you have multiple users logged in on multiple devices, can you see open tickets on each other's device?  

[VanKalkerFarms]

Yes, just make sure open tickets is turned on in settings.  We use this all the time.

Will the app be downloaded to both my iPhone and iPad? I chose to put in my # but realize I need it on my iPad?
