The short answer
Square POS setup with WaTo Consulting in Adelaide takes Square Register, Terminal or Reader hardware out of the box and turns it into a working system. The job covers the catalogue or menu build, payments, receipt and kitchen printers, cash drawers and scanners, and hands-on staff training with support during your first service.
What is a Square POS setup project?
A Square POS setup project takes your Square hardware and software out of the box and turns it into a fully working point-of-sale system for your business. That means configuring your item catalogue, connecting EFTPOS and tap payments, setting up receipt and kitchen printers, building table maps or service flows, and training your staff to use it all. Square is designed to be simple, but simple still needs to be done right.
What we deliver
Square hardware installation
Square Register, Square Terminal or Square Reader set up on your counter, mounted, powered and connected to your network, ready for trade.
Catalogue and menu setup
Your full product catalogue or menu built in Square with categories, modifiers, pricing, variants and tax settings, tested and ready for your first transaction.
Printer configuration
Receipt printers at the counter and kitchen printers at the pass connected to Square via your network, so dockets go to the right place every time.
Payment integration
Square's built-in payments configured and tested, with Visa, Mastercard, EFTPOS, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Afterpay all working from day one.
Peripheral connections
Cash drawers, barcode scanners, customer-facing displays and any other peripherals connected and configured to work with your Square setup.
Training and go-live support
Hands-on training for your team covering sales, refunds, reporting and end-of-day, plus on-site support during your first service.
Our clients, our shout-out
We set up and look after their Square tills and readers. They look after Adelaide's coffee. Go give them a follow.
Who it's for
- Cafés, restaurants and food businesses choosing Square as their POS and wanting it set up properly from the start.
- Retail shops and boutiques moving to Square and needing catalogue migration, barcode scanning and receipt printing configured.
- Service businesses (salons, studios, clinics) using Square for appointments and payments and wanting everything connected.
- Existing Square users who need printers added, a second terminal set up, or their configuration cleaned up and optimised.
How it works
- We understand your business. A quick chat about what you sell, how you sell it, what hardware you need, and whether you're starting fresh or migrating from another system.
- We procure or prepare hardware. Square devices ordered or sourced, along with any printers, stands, cash drawers or networking gear you need, all checked before we arrive.
- We build your catalogue. Products, menus, modifiers, categories and tax settings configured in your Square Dashboard, then tested and tidied before go-live.
- We install on-site. Hardware set up at your counter, printers connected, payments tested with real transactions and your team walked through the basics.
- We stay available for support. Post-launch support for menu changes, printer issues, reporting questions or adding new devices. It's one call to your local WaTo team.
Why WaTo for Square POS
- We know Square inside and out (Register, Terminal, Reader, Square for Restaurants, Square for Retail) and set it up to match your actual workflow.
- We handle the bits Square doesn't: printer setup, network configuration, peripheral connections and on-site installation.
- Local, hands-on support in Adelaide, not a call centre overseas when your kitchen printer stops mid-service.
- One provider for hardware, setup, training and ongoing support, so you're not chasing Square for hardware issues and someone else for printers.
- We've been setting up POS and business technology for small businesses since 2001.
Square POS setup questions
Do we need to buy Square hardware through you?
No. You can buy directly from Square's online shop or a retailer, and we'll set it up. We can also procure it for you if you'd prefer a single invoice and someone to handle the ordering.
Can you connect our existing receipt printer to Square?
It depends on the printer model. Square supports specific Ethernet and Bluetooth printers from brands like Star Micronics. We'll check compatibility and recommend a replacement if yours isn't supported.
What does Square charge for payments?
Square's transaction fees are published on their website and vary by payment type. We don't add anything on top. Our fee covers the setup and configuration project only.
Can you set up Square for multiple locations?
Yes. Square supports multi-location management from a single account. We'll configure each site with its own catalogue, printers and devices while keeping your reporting and management centralised.
