Square K.K. (Headquarters: Block, Inc. in the US, Block Head: Jack Dorsey, hereinafter "Square"), which provides card payment terminals, POS, online payments, etc. for small and medium-sized businesses to support cashless and store operations, will run the "Square Cashless Switch Campaign" from Wednesday, April 1 to Sunday, May 31, 2026, aimed at corporations and sole proprietors using other companies' cashless payment services or POS registers to promote switching from other companies' products to Square products.
In the "Square Cashless Switch Campaign", one payment terminal from Square Reader, Square Terminal, or Square Register will be provided free of charge* upon switching, and the payment processing fee will be free for up to 1 million yen in sales.
*The type of payment terminal to be gifted will be selected by Square.
Square offers a variety of terminals, such as the fully integrated POS register "Square Register (2nd Generation)" to be released in Japan on March 31, 2026, and "Square Handy" which completes everything from payment to inventory management all at once, allowing you to start using smooth payment experiences and payments from the same day at the shortest.
With this campaign, we aim to suppress the cost of switching from other companies and support more efficient and smooth store operations. While a variety of models and systems are appearing one after another, we have heard many voices from business owners saying that even if they want to replace them, it is difficult to switch to new terminals due to problems such as cancellation fees. Therefore, following the popularity of the previous autumn campaign, we decided to hold a spring campaign this time. We hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity and aim to achieve smoother operations.
Square will continue to listen to the front lines of store operations and efficiently transform store operations with the power of technology.
