Square builds common business tools in unconventional ways so more people can start, run, and grow their businesses.
When Square launched in Japan in 2013, as the first International Market outside North America, it was difficult and expensive (or just plain impossible) for some businesses to take credit cards.
Square made credit card payments possible and affordable for all by turning a mobile phone into a credit card reader and since then, has been building an entire business toolkit of both hardware and software products.
We’re working to find new and better ways to help businesses succeed on their own terms—and we’re looking for people like you to help shape tomorrow at Square.
