Request Credit Card Payment (Pay Onsite)

If you have connected Square to utilize our Buy Now feature, you can now request payment by credit card on all ad types, including auctions, sales, ads with variable shipping, etc.

• This feature can not be used on multiple-quantity ads that are not being sold as a group.
• You must have Square connected in order to use this feature.

How to Use- Seller

When a buyer sends you an inquiry, and you agree to sell the ad to them, you can request payment by card. To do this:

• Click on the messenger action (the + icon) in the lower right corner of the message thread.

• Select "Request Payment by Card"

• Input the total sales amount + shipping, and then click "Request."

• The buyer will be sent a link to securely input their credit card. Once the credit card is entered, the order will automatically be accepted and created.
  • You will NOT need to approve the order like you do when using "Buy Now."
  • If you need to refund the transaction, you will need to do so via the Square app directly.

How to Use- Buyer

Once you arrange details with the seller and they request the payment by card, you will receive a message with a secure link to input that information.

• Click "Pay Now."

• Input your credit card information. The seller will NOT be able to see this information.
• Once payment is accepted, the order will automatically be created.
