The Square Terminal requires an internet connection at all times to function properly. If your internet connection becomes interrupted or temporarily unavailable, you can enable Offline Mode to accept swiped card payments as a backup.
Do the payments then get processed when I get back to wifi?
Any transactions accepted while in Offline Mode will be processed when you regain connectivity. If a payment is not processed within 24 hours, it will expire and the funds will not be captured from your customer.
Where do I find "Off line mode?
To enable Offline Mode:
There is no offline mode
What options do you see when you click "Checkout" in settings?
Quick amounts, Taxes, Order tickets, payment types, Tipping, Receipt, Customer management
