Square takes care of fraud prevention, dispute management, security, and compliance at no additional cost. Square’s POS certification also enables merchants to comply with the “Loi anti-fraude TVA, 20181 ”. Businesses can access their funds as soon as the next working day and only pay a transaction fee when they accept a card or mobile payment.
