Can Webflow integrate with Square for e-commerce, since Webflow e-commerce only supports Stripe?
TL;DR
- Use external tools like Foxy.io or Ecwid to embed a store in Webflow that supports Square payments.
- Alternatively, link to a separate Square store or develop a custom integration using Square’s API, though this requires more technical effort and won’t fully integrate with Webflow’s native e-commerce features.
Webflow’s native e-commerce platform only supports Stripe and PayPal, so it does not directly integrate with Square for payment processing. However, there are a few workarounds.
1. Use Square via External Checkout Tools
- Tools like Ecwid or Foxy.io can be embedded into Webflow and support Square as a payment processor.
- These platforms allow you to build a product store, then embed it in your Webflow site (using their widget or script).
- Foxy.io is a particularly flexible option and works well with Webflow’s CMS for dynamic product collections.
2. Use a Square Online Store Separately
- You can link to a Square-hosted online store or use buy buttons that redirect users to Square checkout.
- This approach keeps payment processing in Square but does not integrate with Webflow’s CMS or cart system.
3. Custom Integration via API and Backend Logic
- Developers could build a custom integration between Webflow-form submissions and the Square API using tools like Make.com or custom backend (e.g., using Firebase or AWS).
- This option is complex, requires coding, and lacks native cart/checkout UX integration within Webflow.
4. Consider Switching Payment Gateway or Platform
- If you want full Webflow e-commerce features (cart, checkout styling, automated emails), you would need to switch to Stripe or PayPal.
- Alternatively, use another platform like Shopify or Square Online and embed product components into Webflow for display only.
Summary
Webflow does not natively support Square for e-commerce payments. To work with Square, you must use external tools like Foxy.io or Ecwid, or implement a custom solution. For full compatibility with Webflow’s e-commerce features, Stripe and PayPal are the only supported options.
