Description

The Square Payment add-on adds a Square gateway to Modern Events Calendar to process card payments during cart and booking stages, using the credentials set in the plugin’s settings screen. It requires Modern Events Calendar Pro and serves organizers who sell registrations, tickets, or event bookings and need to accept payments through the Square ecosystem without moving the main purchasing flow outside of the calendar.
