Starbucks Joins Square

August 7th, 2012

Big news for Square: Square will process all U.S. credit and debit card transactions for Starbucks.

I wonder if this also means that customers will be able to use Pay with Square at Starbucks. It’s big enough for Square that they’ll be processing all of their sales, but it’d be a huge deal if Starbucks worked with Pay With Square, too. I’m assuming that’s not a part of it, though, since it requires Square’s software.

UPDATE: The Next Web’s Josh Ong reports that Pay with Square will indeed work at Starbucks. What a coup by Square.

UPDATE (10:40 AM): Dan Frommer says that while Pay with Square will work, it’s going to use a Square barcode. No paying by name yet.
