How does the Founding Member discount work?

The first 25 paying customers get 25% off forever. To lock in the founder discount, you must subscribe to a paid plan before your trial period ends.

When does billing start?

Billing starts when you subscribe to a paid plan. If you start with the free trial, you can add a payment method at any time during the trial and your paid subscription begins immediately.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

All of your Square data remains intact,
book by book
just stops syncing with your Square account. You can resume your subscription at any time to continue using the service.

Do you charge setup fees or per-transaction fees?

No. There are no setup fees and no per-transaction fees.
