We just uploaded that version through HikaShop's website, If you already bought the [ Square payment plugin](https://www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/235-square.html) you'll probably have access to that version using the download link received via emails when you bought it.

It looks much better on the payment page and does process the payment. However it still needs some area to add some text or an image to the top of the page where the cc details are entered to tell the customer they are using a secure Square payment gateway. Or have the cc area in a popup maybe? Or put the cart contents on the page also. It still ignores the location ID and process all payments to the Square owner account. How do I remove the requirement to enter the postal code? This is practically never used in regular payment gateways and as its noted as just "POSTAL" it will confuse the user. Postal what? Postal address? Postal code? Zip code? It's a good move forward but I think still needs refinement.

Or have the cc area in a popup maybe? Or put the cart contents on the page also. Putting the Hikashop cart on that page will be hard as Hikashop won't allow that without huge customization. We actually planned to add a translation Key at the beginning and end of the page so that merchant will just have to add their custom text / image (in html) using these translation key via "Hikashop->System->Configuration->Languages" We'll probably add it through the next Square version ! For more information about language translation : [ www.hikashop.com/download/languages#translate](https://www.hikashop.com/download/languages#translate) > It still ignores the location ID and process all payments to the Square owner account You're right, the location ID wasn't actually used through their developer documentation to take payments so we'll try to research if we still can use it, else we'll remove the configuration option "location ID". > How do I remove the requirement to enter the postal code? This is practically never used in regular payment gateways and as its noted as just "POSTAL" it will confuse the user. Postal what? Postal address? Postal code? Zip code? We actually had a "disable postal code" field in previous version of Square which was creating a lot of issue as they want that field to be displayed, so we removed it on that version. We'll do some research to find a way to not display postal code ! Best regards, Mohamed Thelji. contact[AT]tsukidev[DOT]com [ Tsuki Dev](https://tsukidev.com/) --- Kind regards, Mohamed Thelji.

Square is the top mobile payment processing company and will soon surpass Stripe and Paypay for ecommerce online...")* Hello Julie, We can understand your frustration but we actually launched it 2 years and 6 months ago with a first version which is still working fine on several websites. Potential users are always free to use HikaShop or Square as we are giving our best to provide them as much as we possibly can with what they need. That's why we are launching a second version of the plugin, and that's also why you often have new Hikashop version releases from Hikashop team. However, as we explained : 1. Putting the Hikashop cart on that page will be hard as Hikashop won't allow that without huge customization. So we added a translation Keys at the beginning and end (SQUARE_FORM_START/SQUARE_FORM_END) of the page so that merchant will just have to add their custom text / image (in html) using these translation key via "Hikashop->System->Configuration->Languages" ==> In the future, we can eventually develop an integration with their checkout API, which will enable you to directly redirect your customer to the Square payment platform to pay. They will then, directly be redirected to your website. 2. We just added the support of the location ID, which can be tested by downloading the last Square version through Hikashop website and installing it. 3. When we try to remove the postal code we actually get the attached JavaScript error, which mean that they won't allow us to **hide** it. We found a solution. The default value of the postal code field is now set to your customer's order billing address. ==> You'll just have to use the new "Hide Postal code" option which directly hide the post code field.
