Square removed a reference to their 'Square Payment Terms' document from the list of related terms and policies in their main Terms of Service on April 19, 2026. The substantive waiver language itself was not changed. This appears to be an organizational or documentation update rather than a material change to your rights or obligations.
This change removes a hyperlink or reference to Square's Payment Terms from the main Terms of Service document.

This change simplifies the list of related documents users may reference when reviewing Square's terms, but does not alter the substantive rights or obligations that apply to payment transactions or any other service. Users remain bound by the Payment Terms; only the hyperlink was removed.
