It’s wild and hard to believe, but we’re already halfway through 2021! With how fast this year has rolled by, it seems like a good idea to pause and take a look back at feature requests and product launches from the last six months.
Keep an eye out for updates in the near future to the feature request experience here in the Seller Community. I think you’ll be really excited!
Now that we have that out of the way, let’s look at some of our product launches over the past 6 months!
Square for Restaurants

Set up single-use coupons for customers, and fine-tune how customers use your coupons. Once they coupon, it’s coup-off for them!
Restricted Dates
If you need to turn off online ordering on specific days, you can now set up restricted dates for your Square Online store. Time to plan that vacation!
Square Online Checkout: Subscription updates
You can now set Checkout Links as subscription-only and have more flexibility on when you want to charge your customers: every other week, twice per year in addition to weekly, monthly, quarterly and annually. 🛍👜🎒

It’s now possible to manage your Square Appointments with Square Register, so you can create, update, and manage appointments right from the sleek and modern device on your desk. I like sleek and modern, don’t you?

Retail businesses need to perform cycle counts of inventory on a regular basis. You can now count inventory with the Square for Retail app by scanning barcodes with your scanner or mobile device camera. 📱📷👈
Square Point of Sale:
mPOP Receipt Printer and Cash drawer support
We now support the Star Micronics mPOP printer driven cash drawer for Android as well as iOS, for those that want a cash drawer and printer in one. I wonder if there’s an mROCK, mHIPHOP, and mCOUNTRY printer. 🤔🤔🤔
