Square launched its new Square Handheld device on May 13, 2025, introducing its most powerful and portable point-of-sale system to date. This device combines a sleek, durable design with comprehensive software, enabling sellers to manage payments and back-of-house operations directly from their pocket.
The Square Handheld is equipped with a barcode scanner for quick checkouts and inventory management, a camera for product photos, and a spill- and splash-resistant 6.2-inch Gorilla Glass touchscreen with an IP54 rating for durability. Its long-lasting battery is designed to power through a full day of operations.
Running the new unified Square Point of Sale app, the Handheld device is built for fast-moving and operationally complex businesses, particularly in the food and beverage sector. It aims to improve service efficiency by allowing staff to take orders tableside or manage lines during busy periods, reducing unnecessary trips to the counter.
