About the Gravity Forms Square Add-On

Square is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to take payments through their WordPress website. Thanks to the Gravity Forms Square Add-On, adding payment processing capabilities to your site’s online forms has never been easier.

Here are some of the main reasons to choose Square for your site:

• One-time Payments and Subscriptions – Whether selling products online, accepting recurring monthly payments for your services, running a membership site, or collecting one-time donations for your nonprofit, Gravity Forms and the Square Add-On make it all possible and more.
• Authorize and Capture – With Square’s authorize and capture functionality, you can authorize a payment, such as for a reservation, and collect it at a later date. This feature is also useful for processing payments after a product has been shipped or a project has been completed, among other scenarios.
• Process Refunds – The Refund button lets you conveniently refund payments made through your forms and update the form entry directly from WordPress Admin, eliminating the need to log into your Square account.
