About Square
Square was created in 2009 by Jack Dorsey and Jim McKelvey to address the need for small businesses to accept credit card payments easily. The product emerged from the idea of enabling anyone to process transactions using a mobile device, thus democratizing access to payment systems traditionally reserved for larger businesses.
Strengths of Square included its user-friendly interface, ease of setup, and comprehensive ecosystem offering various business tools. Weaknesses involved higher transaction fees for some users and limited customer support options. Competitors included PayPal, Stripe, and Clover, which also provided payment processing solutions with varying features and pricing models.
