Square
· #79 most-usedAccept payments, book clients, track inventory — all automated
Square is the all-in-one commerce platform that powers point-of-sale, online payments, invoicing, appointments, and inventory for businesses of every size. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can create customers, issue and send invoices, adjust stock counts, book appointments, and process refunds — triggered by events in your other tools or on a schedule you define. Your agents handle the Square paperwork; your team handles the customers.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual work of creating Square invoices, syncing customer records, and reconciling inventory counts after every order or delivery.
What your Square agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
Square × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
New payment → loyalty reward, instantly
When a Square payment is confirmed, your agent looks up the customer in Square, posts an updated loyalty credit to the support CRM, blocks a follow-up appointment in Google Calendar, and notifies the front-of-house team in Slack — all before the customer has left the building. Loyalty gaps and missed follow-ups disappear; repeat-visit rates climb because the reward always lands within minutes of the purchase.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot

How to plug Square into Actionist
Pick the connection method that suits your environment.
The fastest path to your Square data. Connect via Actionist's MCP integration and the agent gains access to your customers, orders, invoices, appointments, and inventory through a secure OAuth handshake — no tokens to copy, no credential rotation to manage.
Find Square in the Apps library and click Connect. MCP is selected by default.
You'll be redirected to Square's OAuth screen. Log in with your Square seller account and grant Actionist read/write access to the scopes the agent needs (customers, orders, catalog, invoices, appointments).
Actionist runs a read-only call to verify the handshake — it fetches your Square location list and confirms the token is valid. You're ready to automate.
