Protect your business

Square is an industry leader in security and fraud prevention. It offers not only a suite of risk management services but also tools and resources to help your business thrive. And if you join Square, it’s all included at no additional cost to you.

Payment disputes

Where there are purchases, there are payment disputes. As with any transaction, there’s always a risk that your customer will dispute the validity of the purchase. Square has a dedicated disputes team standing by to walk you through the process. 

  • Dedicated disputes team: Square has a team of experts to walk you through the process of challenging payment disputes with your customer’s bank. 
  • Dispute management made easy: With the Disputes Dashboard, you can submit all the necessary documents to Square electronically. Square does the time-consuming, stressful work of dealing with your customer’s bank for you.

Fraud and account takeover protection

Square’s fraud prevention team watches over your account’s security 24/7. It’s not just looking at your account activity to keep you safe. It takes a holistic look at the entire Square ecosystem to analyse a wide variety of signals and keep ahead of fraud trends. 

  • Square detects fraud before it happens: Square uses machine-learning models and live monitoring programs to analyse transactions as they’re happening and to keep an eye on suspicious activity. 
  • Advanced account takeover prevention: Square offers customisation options to enhance your security by adding 2-Step Verification, employee permissions, and account change notifications.

Advanced security

As an industry expert in security, Square protects your data like its business depends on it—because it does. Square is the merchant of record for every transaction, which means we’re dedicated to keeping your business safe. 

  • Security technology: It’s engineered into our products (hardware, software, and payments) from the ground up. All security features are created and maintained in-house.
  • PCI Level 1 compliant: Square takes on the burden of staying PCI compliant. No checklists, assessments, or audits required.
