Since we first opened our doors in 2009, the world of commerce has evolved immensely – and so has Square. After enabling anyone to take a payment and never miss a sale, we saw sellers stymied by disparate, outmoded products and tools that wouldn’t work together. So we expanded into software and started building integrated, omnichannel solutions – to help sellers sell online, manage inventory, run a busy kitchen, book appointments, engage loyal buyers, and hire and pay staff. And across it all, we’ve embedded financial services tools at the point of sale, so merchants can access a business loan and manage their cash flow all in one place.

Today, we’re a partner to sellers of all sizes – large, enterprise-scale businesses with complex commerce operations, sellers just starting out, as well as merchants who began selling with Square and have grown larger over time. As our sellers scale, so do our solutions. We all grow together.

There is a massive opportunity in front of us. We’re building a business that is big, meaningful, and lasting. And we are helping sellers around the world do the same.

Square Online makes it easy for merchants to start selling online, from food trucks to large retailers. The product has seen tremendous growth recently but still has an incredible amount of untapped potential.

The Platform Convergence team is an organization responsible for helping our seller succeed with their online store. We do this by getting them quickly set up with fulfillment options that their customers want and that with a unified and cohesive experience. Additionally, we empower merchants to focus on what makes them unique by supporting and simplifying complex online fulfillment models (pickup, delivery, and shipping) that are fundamental to their business’ growth, especially for upmarket sellers.
