2 min read

In Square Point of Sale, staff can add a customer during checkout. Staff should open the sale, choose Add Customer, and either find an existing customer or create one. When using SpenVest, the staff member should use the SpenVest customer identification workflow supported by the merchant's setup, then continue checkout normally.
