Cancel Square: Complete Guide
What is Square
Service overview
Square is a payments and business services brand that provides apps, subscription features and payment processing tools to merchants and consumers.
The "Square" app referenced in the local terms appears as a security companion / app offering subscriptions managed through platform stores and web settings.
Relevance in Nigeria
Square is not officially supported across Nigeria in the same way it is in markets where Square has local operations.
The local terms page is available at the Nigeria site and should be consulted for contact and cancellation details: squareapp.com.ng/terms.html.
How to cancel Square
Cancel on iOS (App Store)
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad and tap your name, then Subscriptions.
- Find the Square subscription in the list and tap it, then choose Cancel Subscription.
- Ensure the auto-renew toggle is turned off; cancellation prevents future charges but often keeps access until the current paid period ends.
Cancel on Android (Google Play)
- Open the Google Play Store app, tap your profile, then Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions.
- Select the Square subscription and tap Cancel subscription; follow the prompts to confirm.
- Verify auto-renewal is disabled and keep the transaction ID or receipt for records.
Cancel web subscriptions or via payment provider
- If you subscribed on the web, check the app settings on the website or the payment provider panel for subscription controls.
- The terms note web subscriptions must be cancelled through the app settings or the payment provider; no direct in-app cancellation flow is described on the local terms page.
- If unsure, use the contact details in the terms page or send a written request to the postal address provided below.
What happens when you cancel
Access and features
Cancellation typically stops future automatic billing but generally preserves access until the end of the already-paid billing period.
Expect to retain premium features through the paid period unless the terms state immediate suspension on cancellation.
Billing and renewal
- Auto-renewal must be disabled through the App Store or Google Play for device subscriptions.
- Web-based subscriptions are controlled via the app settings or the payment provider's subscription portal.
Account status and data
Account deactivation may affect access to funds or stored data; the local terms limit liability to the amount paid in the past 12 months.
Reports from other markets include account holds and deactivations; keep records and follow up promptly if you lose access to funds or data.
Will I get a refund?
Official Nigeria terms
The local terms contain no consumer-friendly, express refund guarantee for active subscriptions.
Payments are generally non-refundable unless required by applicable law; liability is limited to amounts paid in the prior 12 months.
Platform and regional exceptions
- App Store and Google Play each have their own refund mechanisms which may allow refunds under platform rules.
- Square's global materials reference a 120-day refund window in some regions (EU/IE), but that does not automatically apply to Nigeria.
How to request a refund
- First request a refund through the platform you paid on (App Store or Google Play) using the transaction ID and receipt.
- If payment was processed via a web payment provider, contact the provider and Square using the terms page links and retain proof of communications.
- If the platform route is exhausted, consider contacting your bank for chargeback advice or local consumer protection bodies as applicable.
Square plans and pricing
Overview
There is no official, public Nigeria-specific pricing listed in the local terms or site as of the available data.
EU/EEA pricing examples exist on Square's European pages but should not be assumed valid for Nigeria.
Pricing table
| Plan | Price (Nigeria) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | Varies | No Nigeria-specific price published; check your store listing for actual options. |
| Plus / Premium plan (example) | Varies | EU example: €49 + VAT per month for Ireland; EU pricing may not apply in Nigeria. See Square EU payment terms. |
Your consumer rights in Nigeria
Legal framework and limitations
The Square Nigeria terms do not explicitly grant statutory cancellation or refund rights specific to Nigerian e-commerce law.
The terms also limit liability to the amount paid in the previous 12 months, which constrains remedies under the contract.
Platform protections and alternatives
- If you paid via App Store or Google Play, platform refund and dispute processes may provide additional protections.
- You may explore bank chargeback options or file a complaint with local consumer protection authorities if applicable.
Customer experiences
Reported positives
- No accessible, verified positive reviews specific to the Square Nigeria app were found in the available sources.
- Where Square operates locally in other markets, businesses commonly cite useful payment and POS features.
Reported negatives
- Global user reports include frozen or held funds (sometimes reported for extended periods), abrupt account deactivation, and slow or poor customer support.
- Example public discussion of such issues is available on community sites (for context): reddit.com post.
Documentation checklist
Essential documents
- Account email or username associated with the subscription.
- Receipt or invoice showing the subscription payment and transaction ID.
- Date of purchase and billing period for the subscription.
Optional supporting items
- Screenshot of the subscription page in the App Store or Google Play showing active auto-renewal.
- Copies of any correspondence with support and screenshots of error messages or account status.
- Proof of posting if sending a written cancellation to the postal address (tracking number or registered mail receipt).
Common mistakes
Assuming an immediate refund or cancellation
Many users expect an immediate refund or loss of access the moment they cancel; in practice, access often continues until the paid period ends.
Assume cancellation stops future billing but does not guarantee refunds unless required by law or platform policy.
Canceling in the app instead of the store
Users sometimes cancel inside the Square app and forget to turn off auto-renewal in the App Store or Google Play.
Always verify the subscription status in the platform you used to purchase and keep the confirmation email or screenshot.
Not saving transaction details
Failing to retain receipts, transaction IDs and dates makes refunds or disputes harder to pursue with stores, banks or Square support.
Keep copies and document all communications when you request cancellation or a refund.
