Export employee contact list?

[muckyduck]

We recently switched to Square Payroll and Scheduling from When-I-Work.  A very useful feature of When-I-Work is the ability to send SMS and email messages to employees.  Well, it seems like there is no such ability with Square and so as an alternative I would like to export employee names, email addresses and phone numbers and then import them into MailChimp or something.  Seems like a reasonable thing to be able to do but I cannot for the life of me figure out how.  Any suggestions?

Hi @muckyduck.  You made me look!  I was just sure that you were missing something, but of course you aren’t.  I have two recommendations for you.

First, submit a feature request here to ask Square to add a rudimentary Communications feature to Teams.  Let me know when you do because I will definitely upvote it!  The product team will review your request and let you know their decision.

Secondly, Homebase integrates with Square and has a free tier that includes employee communication.  For now, this might be good enough to get you through, especially since once you set it up it will just work.  Here’s a link to their App Integration with Square.  Of course, your employees will have to have the Homebase App on their phones as well.

I hope that helps.

The ability to export an employee contact list would be very helpful.  We just switched to Square Teams/Payroll and I can't believe this feature is missing.  It's so basic.
