The fees for taking a payment through WriteUpp via Square are applied on a per transaction basis and are:
- In person card payments - 1.75%
- Online payments - 1.4% + 25p for transactions with UK cards and 2.5% + 25p for transactions with non-UK cards
These equate to the standard Square rates for processing transactions.
There's no long term contract, and other than purchasing a Square Terminal which is required for in person payments, there are no other fees to be paid.
There is a commercial partnership agreement in place between WriteUpp and Square. This will result in the standard transaction fee against each payment being shown in 2 lines, as the fee is split between Square and WriteUpp. If you have custom pricing arranged with Square, please do get in touch with our team here to discuss how your transactions through WriteUpp will be charged.
Square is only available to WriteUpp users based in the UK. For those of you who are not UK based, you will be able to set up Stripe which will cover both online and in person paymentsUpdated on: 22/12/2025
