Overview

Square sells hardware, such as a point of sale (POS) system. It has analytics and sales reporting capabilities as well as the tracking of sales and inventory. Clients can use the POS to process their customers' payments that are made with credit or debit cards. The POS includes the Square register, customer display, a power adapter cable, and more. There is also a Square Terminal system that can also take payments and print receipts. Clients can buy smaller hardware that connects directly to their own smartphone or tablet and reads credit or debit cards. These devices are known as the "Magstripe" and "Contactless and Chip".
