I have been tasked to develop a way to create shipping labels for items to be shipped from the Square Market.
Is there a way to download or access the shipping data entered by the buyers during the order process?
I would like to use the Square Connect API.
The information is available on the "Order Confirmation" page but that is not is JSON form.
Is this going to be available at some time in the future through the Square Connect API?
Order management, including accessing shipping addresses for Square Market orders, is currently not possible with the Square Connect API. All available functionality is described in the documentation.
However, we are actively developing the API, and I will pass this feedback along to the engineering team.

I want to allow my users to pay food to my business users using Stripe Connect. I never used Stripe, but by reading the Stripe documentation, this seems feasible and relatively easy to implement.
According to this Google documentation page, the purchase or rental of physical goods via a given app is not subject to their fees.
Does this imply that I will not pay any fee to Google, even if I distribute my app via Google Play?
Given your use case, you should be able to use Stripe instead of Google Play's billing system and not be subject to Google extra fees. That being said, it would depend on how you implement your app. For example, if you were to sell tokens (that were only available in-app) that could be redeemed for food, that would probably still need to use Google's billing system. You should probably write in to Stripe Support (https://support.stripe.com/contact) to talk through what you want and be completely sure.
I run a website for a local children's theater. We are migrating from PayPal to Square for all our ticket sales and other payment needs. I have absolutely no idea how to get started or what would be the best option for us for selling tickets online.
I have looked at the API documentation, I have asked on Seller Community, and I have been on the Square Slack channel. As far as I can tell, the Checkout API seems to be my best bet, but I don't understand how to use it.
If anyone has experience using Square to sell theater tickets or something similar, I would really appreciate some input.
For reference, here is the page I need to migrate from PayPal: https://talespinnerchildrenstheatre.org/tickets/
You can use the square checkout api.
You will need to sends the order information to Square and you will receive a URL (hosted in square server ) to the Square Checkout UI. Refer the below documentation for further information.

I'm developing an app that uses Square credit card processing API. In the Square web panel, after a charge I see things like "authcode" and receipt number in that interface, but I can't find where the API gives me back this data.
Also, when charging with the Square virtual terminal, I can pace a comment with the charge. When the API makes a charge that comment is set to "online transaction."
So can I have the software leave a comment with the API, and can I get the auto code and receipt numbers through the API?
Not all of the features available in Square Dashboard are available via the API at this time, though we are actively working on expanding the API capabilities, particularly around itemizations and receipts.
You can add external reference_id and note to a transaction if you want to associate some external metadata. Receipts can be retrieved with the older retrieve and list payments endpoints. See here: https://docs.connect.squareup.com/api/connect/v1/?q=receipt#datatype-payment
My supplier offers an API to check programmatically shipping fees in real-time . His API can work with any system that supports https protocol and can be used with any programming language.
By preparing data to upload into BC, I faced an issue in shipping fees calculation on how it can be displayed to customers. The option of flat rate or free shipping can't work for me since we target worldwide destination and not for a specific country.
So, my questions are as follow:
Is it possible to customize the shipping section by integrating the
supplier's API, and display shipping fees from there based on the
entered delivery address?
If so, these displayed shipping fees can
be added programmatically to the total price of the order ?
In that case, which programming languages are allowed by BC to achieve this
goal?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
We are a USA based company with international presence and we are looking at setting up a store to sell digital goods worldwide through credit card purchases (i.e. no shipping involved). So far I've set up two accounts, one using a US postal address and one using a UK postal address,
The US postal address seems to give me an account that uses Shopify
Payments for the payment gateway and only seems to be USD based.
The UK postal address gives me the option to use a payment gateway
provided by someone called Sofort and all prices are in UK pounds.
At this rate of progress I'm going to need a mailing address and an email address and a unique site for every country in the world if we want to support local currencies. I guess I've missed the point somewhere soon the line, hence this request for guidance. Thanks!
What is the best strategy for us to use Shopify to sell to many countries worldwide in multiple currencies.
Shopify doesn't offer multi-currency on the checkout process. You can display the prices in many currencies in your storefront (product.liquid, collections.liquid, cart.liquid....) but when user reaches checkout (https://checkout.shopify.com/carts/xxxx/ the displayed currency will be the Store default currency. You might want to give a try to Shopify Plus.
Opening multiple Shopify stores would solve this, but this is quite hard to maintain, unless you have the "master" store which serves as product database / CMS, and you send the checkouts to each particular store depending on the currency the buyer has choosen. So in this scenario, you'd have multiple Shopify stores serving only as "checkout processors".
Last but not least, Shopify is working on a Brand New Responsive Checkout and Theme Internationalization which will definitely be a step beyond on Internationalization. We can set you up a free Shopify demo store which has this 2 new features enabled for you to evaluate whether it's worth waiting or not.
UPDATE
We've released this Shopify customization which allows you to accept as many currencies as you want in the Checkout: https://exclusive-checkout-demo.myshopify.com
