Sorry, Al. I was so excited that the cost wouldn't be as high as I expected that it didn't dawn on me that I shouldn't post your rates. The bottom line here is that funding this development is totally affordable. If only 2 or 3 of us sponsored this and then used Square rather than Paypal Pro, we'd come out ahead in less than 1 year.

Square processes credit cards for less than Paypal, provides charge-back protection up to $250 per month, automatically deposits your payments received to your bank account in 1 or 2 business days, and charges no monthly fees. Overall, I think they are a better payment processor than Paypal. If you want to check them out, here's their website address: https://squareup.com/ I recently emailed Cubecart Sales requesting a rough estimate on what it would take to integrate Square's payment APIs into Cubecart. He responded as follows. *** Removed by admin *** I'd like to see Square implemented to look and act just like Paypal Pro does. I'm sure this would cost more than the simple integration Al quoted. The more people willing to help out financially the less it would cost each of us. Are any of you willing to help sponsor this integration?

Thanks for the responses. Typical non-technie here, huh? I had hoped that it would be as easy as taking the Paypal Pro extension and swapping the Square API for the Paypal API. My budget for this is in the hundreds, but not thousands. If anyone ever comes up with an Square gateway, I would definitely be a buyer. Square is SOOOOOO superior to Paypal.

Dang! Isn't anyone even interested in providing me with a quote to integrate Square? Another advantage to Square is that it offers Chargeback protection--Paypal Pro does not.

I see that Square now has an e-commerce API that allow you to use them to process payments on your own ecommerce site. Is anyone working on an extension for Square? They are less expensive to use than Paypal Pro. Their website address is: squareup.com/ecommerce . If there are any developers out there that would like to give me a quote on integrating Square I'd appreciate it. I'm looking for something very similar to the Paypal Pro extension on the credit card would be processed by Square instead of Paypal Pro. (I would like it to still include Paypal Express Checkout for customers that have Paypal accounts.)

I just had CubeCart Support upgrade my store from Version 4 to the latest Version 6. They did a fantastic job! My store has over 4,000 products and over 8,000 customers. All the data is in perfect condition after the upgrade. The upgrade was done quickly and professionally. I couldn't be happier with their service. If you are the least bit nervous about upgrading, purchase a support plan and let the experts do it. You'll be glad you did!
