Cut the lawn. Get paid. Move on.
Take cards right at the curb, send invoices from the truck, and have your money by the next business day — no more chasing checks down the street.
The headaches we hear about
Lawn care runs on routes and tight margins. The last thing you need is to circle back for a check or wait a week to get paid. Square lets you collect on the spot and keep the route moving.
- Driving back to a property just to pick up a check
- Customers who 'forgot' to leave payment again
- Looking small-time next to the big crews that take cards
- Doing the books at night instead of resting up for the early start

The straight answers
Yes. Save a customer's card on file and Square can charge their recurring service automatically, so you're not invoicing the same people every single week.
Tap-to-pay and the reader run on your phone's cell signal. A couple bars of service is all you need to take a card.
No. If your phone supports tap-to-pay you can start with zero hardware. Want swipe and chip too? New accounts get a free reader.
Not to start. The Free plan has no monthly fee — you only pay a small percentage when you actually take a card payment. You can upgrade later if you want extras like advanced scheduling, but plenty of pros run for years on the free plan.
Standard transfers land in your bank account as soon as the next business day. Need it now? Instant transfer moves your money in minutes for a small fee. Either way, no more waiting a week for a check to clear.
Yes. With Afterpay — built right into Square — customers can pay in 4 interest-free installments over six weeks, while you get paid in full, up front, with zero risk. It's the easiest way to close a bigger job without financing it yourself.
No problem. Tap-to-pay and the card reader work over your phone's cell signal. As long as you've got a bar or two of service, you can take a payment in the field.
