Square Point of Sale SDK

The Square Point of Sale SDK lets you quickly and easily add support to your application for completing in-store payments using Square Point of Sale.

Requirements

A Square developer account.
Xcode 8.0 or later.
iOS 9 or later.

It is not currently possible to process a fake credit card payment with the Point of Sale API. If you are testing your integration, you can process small card payments (as low as $1) and then issue refunds from Square Point of Sale. Please visit squareup.com/activate to ensure your account is enabled for payment processing.

Getting started

Add the SDK to your project

CocoaPods

platform :ios, '9.0'
pod 'SquarePointOfSaleSDK'

Be sure to call pod update and use pod install --repo-update to ensure you have the most recent version of the SDK installed.

Carthage

github "Square/SquarePointOfSaleSDK-iOS"

Git Submodules

Checkout the submodule with git submodule add https://github.com/square/SquarePointOfSaleSDK-iOS.git, drag SquarePointOfSaleSDK.xcodeproj to your project, and add SquarePointOfSaleSDK as a build dependency.

Update your Info.plist

To get started with the Square Point of Sale SDK, you'll need to configure your Info.plist file with a few changes.

First, navigate to your project's settings in Xcode and click the "Info" tab. Under Custom iOS Target Properties:

Add a new entry with key LSApplicationQueriesSchemes.
Set the "Type" to Array.
Add the value square-commerce-v1 to the array.

Next, create a URL scheme so that Square Point of Sale can re-open your app after a customer finishes a transaction. If your app already has a URL scheme, you can use that.

Finally, open the "URL Types" section and click the "+" to add a new URL type. Set the values to the following:

Property	Value
Identifier	Square
URL Schemes	Your URL Scheme
Role	Editor

It should look like this:

Register your app with Square

Go to the Square Developer Portal and create a new application.

Under the Point of Sale API tab, add your app's bundle identifier and URL scheme, then click "Save".

Get your Application ID from the Credentials tab.

Usage

Swift

Import Declaration: import SquarePointOfSaleSDK

// Replace with your app's URL scheme.
let callbackURL = URL(string: <#T##Your URL Scheme##String#>)!

// Your client ID is the same as your Square Application ID.
// Note: You only need to set your client ID once, before creating your first request.
SCCAPIRequest.setClientID(<#T##Client ID##String#>)

do {
    // Specify the amount of money to charge.
    let money = try SCCMoney(amountCents: 100, currencyCode: "USD")

    // Create the request.
    let apiRequest =
        try SCCAPIRequest(
            callbackURL: callbackURL,
            amount: money,
            userInfoString: nil,
            merchantID: nil,
            notes: "Coffee",
            customerID: nil,
            supportedTenderTypes: .all,
            clearsDefaultFees: false,
            returnAutomaticallyAfterPayment: false
        )

    // Open Point of Sale to complete the payment.
    try SCCAPIConnection.perform(apiRequest)

} catch let error as NSError {
    print(error.localizedDescription)
}

Finally, implement the UIApplication delegate method as follows:

func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options: [UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]) -> Bool {
    guard let sourceApplication = options[.sourceApplication] as? String,
        sourceApplication.hasPrefix("com.squareup.square") else {
        return false
    }

    do {
        let response = try SCCAPIResponse(responseURL: url)

        if let error = response.error {
            // Handle a failed request.
            print(error.localizedDescription)
        } else {
            // Handle a successful request.
        }

    } catch let error as NSError {
        // Handle unexpected errors.
        print(error.localizedDescription)
    }

    return true
}

Objective C

Import Declaration: @import SquarePointOfSaleSDK;

// Replace with your app's callback URL.
NSURL *const callbackURL = [NSURL URLWithString:<#Your URL Scheme#>];

// Specify the amount of money to charge.
SCCMoney *const amount = [SCCMoney moneyWithAmountCents:100 currencyCode:@"USD" error:NULL];

// Your client ID is the same as your Square Application ID.
// Note: You only need to set your client ID once, before creating your first request.
[SCCAPIRequest setClientID:<#Client ID#>];

SCCAPIRequest *request = [SCCAPIRequest requestWithCallbackURL:callbackURL
                                                        amount:amount
                                                userInfoString:nil
                                                    merchantID:nil
                                                         notes:@"Coffee"
                                                    customerID:nil
                                          supportedTenderTypes:SCCAPIRequestTenderTypeAll
                                             clearsDefaultFees:NO
                               returnAutomaticallyAfterPayment:NO
                                                         error:&error];

When you're ready to charge the customer, bring Point of Sale into the foreground to complete the payment:

[SCCAPIConnection performRequest:request error:&error];

Finally, implement the relevant UIApplication delegate.

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application openURL:(NSURL *)URL options:(NSDictionary<NSString *,id> *)options;
{
    NSString *const sourceApplication = options[UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey];
    if ([sourceApplication hasPrefix:@"com.squareup.square"]) {
        SCCAPIResponse *const response = [SCCAPIResponse responseWithResponseURL:URL error:&decodeError];
        ...
        return YES;
    }
    return NO;
}
