How each solution supports bridal shops

See what each option adds to the way your business takes and tracks payments.

Square for Retail

For bridal shops, that means gowns, veils and accessories—including special orders—tracked in one catalog with stock synced between the counter and online. Roots Payments, an independent Square Reseller, builds the catalog, configures the plan and hardware, and supports your team after launch.

Square Integrations

For bridal shops: Connect Square transaction data with the tools used to manage sizes, colors, returns and stock levels, reducing repeated data entry. Square's App Marketplace connects the POS to accounting, ecommerce and other tools. Accounting sync is the most common; ecommerce sync matters if you also sell on another platform. Roots Payments picks the apps, connects them and checks that data lands correctly.
  • Recommend apps from Square's App Marketplace
  • Connect and map accounts, taxes and categories
  • Test sync with real sales

Merchant Account

For bridal shops: Arrange a processing account for clothing, accessories and special orders, with checkout methods matched to how customers pay. A dedicated merchant account gives bridal shops their own processing relationship, with interchange-plus or flat pricing and statements we explain line by line. Many small shops start on flat-rate pricing. Roots Payments reviews your statements and quotes before you switch.
  • Review your current statements for hidden fees
  • Quote pricing based on your card mix
  • Set up terminals or connect your POS

Cash Discount Program

For bridal shops: Design a clearly presented cash-price program for clothing, accessories and special orders, with checkout wording and receipts aligned. A cash discount program shows a card price and a lower cash price so customers who pay cash save. Shops with thin margins and lots of card sales see the biggest savings. Roots Payments sets up compliant signage, receipts and pricing.
  • Check your state's rules first
  • Set up pricing, signage and receipts
  • Train staff to explain it

Credit Card Surcharging

For bridal shops: Plan credit-card surcharge disclosures for clothing, accessories and special orders, keeping eligible card payments distinct at checkout. Surcharging adds a fee to credit card payments to offset processing costs. It's banned on debit cards, capped by card-brand rules and restricted in some states. It can offset fees on large tickets, but some customers dislike it, so we compare it with a cash discount first. Roots Payments sets it up to the rules or tells you when it's not a fit.
  • Check your state's surcharge rules
  • Register the program with the card brands where required
  • Set up signage and receipt disclosures

ACH Payments

For bridal shops: Offer bank-account payments for clothing, accessories and special orders, with authorization and invoice matching built into the workflow. ACH lets customers pay from a bank account at a lower cost than cards, which helps on large orders. ACH lowers the cost of large gown balances. Roots Payments sets it up with verification and clear authorization.
  • Set up ACH on your account
  • Add authorization language
  • Connect it to invoices
