Square for AI agents
Square handles payment processing, point-of-sale systems, and invoicing for sellers of every size, from a coffee shop terminal to a full online store checkout flow. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Square.

122 Square actions, graded by risk.

Square in three steps.
- 01Your users connect SquareThey sign in to Square on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Card” can wait for the user, and “delete Invoice” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Square through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('square', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_card destructive: 'deny', // delete_invoice }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Square connects.
Users sign in to Square on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Square OAuth app, or bring your own so the Square consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
The same Square connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

- OAuth 2.0
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan

Square and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Square with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Square to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Square actions you allow.
How do users connect Square?
Users sign in to Square on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Square OAuth app, or bring your own so the Square consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Square actions can my agent take?
122 in total: 59 read, 40 write and 23 destructive, such as “create Card”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Square?
Yes. Actions like “delete Invoice” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Square too?
Yes. The same Square connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Square into your agent.
Your users connect Square once, under your brand. Your agent gets 122 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
