How do I categorize my square payments per event?

    Hi there, 

    I use Square to take payments via different forms. I do camps and parties and I'd like to categorise them so I can see which is which. 

    I can do this via the Square app, but I want to do it directly on the form via the products/payment so I know what is coming in. 

    How do I do this please?

    Hi @RuthSilver,

    Wanted to clarify the question you are asking, you would like to categorize the payments form Square that comes in on each form? Just want to get a little more clarity on your requirements you need to see what is coming in.

    Waiting for your response.

    Sorry, but I don't think you can customize Square payment details. The information it sends to your square account will be the same for other forms that is using Square integration.

    ex.

    First and Last name

    Product name

    Amount

    Transaction ID

    Those information that is collected will be the same for your other forms (camp or parties). If the product name appears in your Square payment report, you can put something that identifies the product name like adding a word Camp or Parties in your product selection would easily make it identifiable.
