GET UP AND RUNNING

1. Get the app
   On your phone or tablet, make sure you have the latest version of the Square app. If you’re new to Square, download the Square app from the App Store or Google Play. Then, open the app to create an account or sign in to an existing account.

2. Set up
   Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in your device’s settings. Open the Square app. Tap > Settings > Hardware > Square card readers. Then tap Connect a Reader.

3. Pair
   Grab your reader. Press and hold the power button for about three seconds. When four orange lights start flashing, release the button. A Bluetooth pairing request will appear on your device. Tap Pair and you’re ready to take payments.
   Pro tip: Your reader may go to sleep after a few hours of inactivity to conserve battery life. To wake it up, simply push the power button on your reader once. Within 20 seconds you’ll see four green flashing lights — this means you’re connected.
