Does Spreedly support Square?

Square's API only allows Square to tokenize/store cards, which would make an integration to Spreedly complicated. Nearly all major gateways offer multiple ways - including a direct API - for their customers who handle PCI themselves. Since tokenization is our core value here, it would be hard to work with an API that also wants to tokenize cards - the redundancy there would complicate things.

Perhaps there is a direct server to server API (one that would not force a hand in tokenization or storage) that they would be willing to expose. If you'd like to pursue an integration to Square, a next step would be for you to reach out and see if they can share any documentation on a server-to-server connection.

Note: As of February 2018, we have also reviewed updates to Square's API, including the Transactions API and the Checkout API. The Transactions API still relies on Square tokenization for payments processing, which is incompatible with Spreedly as explained above. The Checkout API is a hosted payments page which is not supported by our Core Services, as we rely on direct API integrations for payments processing.
