Staples woos business owners with new point-of-sale system

Staples now carries Square Stand, hardware developed by Square that helps brick and mortar businesses turn an iPad into a complete point of sale, at stores and online.



Business owners will be able to process test payments using Square Stand and Square Register, Square's free point-of-sale software, at many Staples locations. Businesses that purchase a Square Stand from Staples in November will receive a free $200 Staples gift card.



"Business owners trust Staples when it comes to finding great products that help them run and grow their business," said Square hardware lead Jesse Dorogusker. "With Square Stand in Staples, we are making it even easier for merchants to replace their old point-of-sale systems with fast, beautiful and easy-to-use hardware from Square."



Square Readers are sold in more than 30,000 stores nationwide including at Apple, Best Buy, Staples and Starbucks, as well as in more than 10,000 stores in Canada and Japan.
