Console overview

In the console you can manage, observe and control all your merchants. Information and actions are split into tabs for each merchant for ease of use. Here is an overview of the main tabs you will frequently use:
  • Overview - Includes brief overview of financial statistics of this merchant
  • Invoices - Lists all invoices, showing their status, amount in USD and the network (coin) the client used to pay
  • Fees - Displays outstanding fees from your merchant’s processed value (We charge a 2% fee. For more details read the Fees guide)
  • Wallets - Because Squared is a self-custodial payment service, you must bring your own wallet for receiving funds. Set up and manage wallets for each network in this tab. Learn more in the Wallets guide
  • Webhooks - Configure webhooks to be sent to your endpoints when events occur (e.g., an invoice is created or paid). See the Webhooks guide for details
  • API Keys - Manage your API keys here
