0% Processing. Keep What You Ring Up.

Customers who pay by card pay the card price, which covers processing. Customers who pay cash get a lower price. Your sales stop paying the processing bill, and our Waco team sets up your Square account with you.

What Owners Are Saying

Ordered a Square Terminal on Tuesday, had it Wednesday afternoon. The setup guide they sent over got me running in 15 minutes. Couldn't ask for better.
Marcus TWaco, TX
I called with a dumb question about whether the Register would work with my existing iPad setup. They actually answered the phone, knew what they were talking about, and didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need.
Sara LAustin, TX
I've ordered from a lot of POS resellers over the years. Guardian is the first one that felt like talking to a friend who happens to know payment hardware inside and out.

Questions Owners Ask

What do my customers see?

A card price and a lower cash price, both posted where customers can see them. Customers who pay by card pay the card price, which covers the processing cost. Customers who pay cash get the cash price.

Do I need a Square account?

Yes. After you apply, we send you to Square to create your account, and our team guides you through setup.

What hardware do I need?

Any Square device we sell works: a handheld, terminal, register, stand, kiosk, or card reader. Not sure which fits? Call us and we will help you pick.

How fast can I get my hardware?

Most orders ship from Waco within 1 business day. Delivery typically takes 1 to 5 business days, depending on where you are.

Is 0% processing allowed in my state?

Yes. Offering a lower price for paying cash is allowed in every state. Some states limit adding a fee on top of a card payment, but 0% processing works the other way: it posts a card price and gives cash customers a discount.

How are debit cards handled?

Debit cards pay the card price, the same as credit cards. The discount is for paying cash, so it applies to cash payments only.

Can I switch back to traditional pricing?

Call our team. We will walk you through your options and what changes on your account before anything is switched.
