1. [R11] Square Point of Sale (POS) 5/5 · US Small Women Owned Bus.: Square is very easy to use and help our small business. The features allow you to customize products for easy access.
2. [R68] GoDaddy Commerce 5/5 · US Great credit card app: I’ve been using this now for a couple years and the fees are very reasonable. It always works. Has tap pay and you can send invoices, you can even accept ACH payment through invoice overall. probably the best system I’ve used over a square or PayPal
3. [R74] GoDaddy Commerce 5/5 · US You ask, they listen!: I use GoDaddy to manage my small business. As an esthetician, I sell physical products in my storefront as well as provide services to my clients. I am able to do both with the use of GoDaddy. I can integrate my website seamlessly into my social media accounts making it easy for clients to book and make purchases. My one complaint was that my clients were only able to util
4. [R86] GoDaddy Commerce 5/5 · US Great for small businesses: I’ve used this app and other related apps from other platforms such as Wix, and this one is the easiest to build and manage a small website store with. It may not be good for big companies, especially those that do not offer products or services on a person to person level, but this app and GoDaddy in general is a great platform for small businesses.
5. [R23] Square Point of Sale (POS) 5/5 · US Wonderful!: Square is easy to use very beginner friendly.
6. [R12] Square Point of Sale (POS) 3/5 · US Whyyyy: The new update is buggy and makes it so much harder to use for reports. I can’t select date ranges now and it won’t show me daily report sales.
7. [R62] GoDaddy Commerce 4/5 · US Loved the app until last update: So I was able to open app, and one click to scheduled appointments I had. Now I have have to open app, hit more, select website, then select manage appointments to view my appointments for the day or make changes. It was convenient now it’s a hassle. Why did yall change the one click access to appointments??
8. [R79] GoDaddy Commerce 2/5 · US It’s ok: Used to be really good and easy for me to check orders, make changes to my products and check my dashboard, now the app is a lot more difficult to navigate along with their site! as of today my whole website is messed up due to their update, my inventories been changed, old products are added back to my site and my categories are not showing up!! As a small business owner I was hoping for
9. [R4] Square Point of Sale (POS) 1/5 · US Dont waste time: Everything about the app and the payment process is fine i use it alot for my business but the big, main and only concern with this app and why i would not recommend it is because they play with your money! Every transaction I’ve had since opening the account gets flagged by there system and then i cant access the money earned from my sale until 2-3 business days later which is di
10. [R16] Square Point of Sale (POS) 1/5 · US They deactivated my account one night before payroll: After years with 0 problems or chargebacks and thousands of clients they deactivated my account for “security concerns” and said too bad, nothing we can do about it. No manual review or ability to restore it. Update: I already spoke to your customer service there and they said the decision is final and they will not reactivate my account.
11. [R67] GoDaddy Commerce 1/5 · US BEWARE: They had no problem depositing my money last week, but now that it's more money today, it's supposedly on hold because they can't verify me. In this day & age, there is no way that they can't verify people in about 30 seconds. I'll be sticking with Square!
12. [R82] GoDaddy Commerce 1/5 · US Worst experience: I used to have a stripe before, I have seen that godaddy was offering lower rates, so what’s happened, I registered my account and godaddy allowed to make 3 transactions, after reviewing my company documents that sent and email that they flagged my account and my deposits which were around $3000 will be frozen for 120 days Worst experience ever, never will come back and warn the
13. [R54] Square Point of Sale (POS) 5/5 · US So Easy: I love to use the Square reader. It is so easy to run the chip cards with the chip reader. You can get your money either the same day or next day. Makes it so simple and worry free! It doesn’t cost that much and if you don’t use it, there is no charge.
14. [R33] Square Point of Sale (POS) 3/5 · GB Good app… HIGH fees: Whilst app manufacture and ongoing support requires money to make it happen it’s frustrating that more users producing more profits don’t enable fee reduction for use ! A FAIR balance of low fees against increase of usage by more customers would attract even more users to utilise this app.
15. [R89] GoDaddy Commerce 5/5 · US So much better: I’ve been on Shopify a long time. I’ve done REALLY well BUT they started taxing for my state. With godaddy ( so far) hasn’t pulled any punches on me yet. I plan on being with godaddy for a lot longer than Shopify. And the monthly bill is ALWAYS $47 a month with Shopify it varies! This bill that I owe with Shopify is alost $85.00 😡
16. [R94] GoDaddy Commerce 2/5 · US It was sold to me as same as Square: It was sold to me as same as Square! 100% not the same You can make your reports as easy as them The only thing is the transaction fee you do t have to pay it when its in person, although was never mention it will be passed to. Our customers, and we are like we didn’t know we have to tell them or. Anyways app is not really good, the other day I had a tow for
17. [R51] Square Point of Sale (POS) 1/5 · US Needs better support: I own a business and I wanted to offer Credit card transactions for customers. I have heard of square. Setup the account and all the info it asked for. First transaction with a customer and a large amount of money is being held by square. No emails, no notifications. I had to talk to customer service for 40 minutes to find out what’s going on and they said my account is being
18. [R43] Square Point of Sale (POS) 1/5 · US Absolutely appalled: eave reviews, but this experience was beyond disappointing. As a legitimate business owner, I trusted Square to process a client’s payment and support my business operations. After receiving my first payment, my account entered review, which I understood and accepted as a normal security measure. The problem wasn’t the review itself, it was everything that followed. I receive
19. [R112] GoDaddy Commerce 1/5 · US Scammers and theives.: They took payments on an unverified account and then offered minimal help to get the money. Had to refund all of my sales to the customers and they still expect me to pay their fees! So not only did I miss out $400, they want $10 more! The most unhelpful customer service ever. MAKE SURE YOU VERIFY YOUR ACCOUNT AND PAYMENTS METHODS BEFORE SELLING BECAUSE IF YOU MESS UP THEY W
20. [R100] GoDaddy Commerce 1/5 · US Run away ridiculous support & sabotaging: We been with GoDaddy since 2022. We decided to increase traffic to our E-commerce website by adding a few new products but noticed the most ridiculous retail shipping rates & after speaking with support we were told to integrate our website with USPS shipping engine API software which we did and that would reduce retail rates to merchant rates which is de
