Offline mode not working at Secondary Location

arrowoodfarms · ‎10-09-2021

We had an internet outage at our satellite location this evening, and offline mode would not work. We received an error message that authorization is needed to accept online payment. I did not see where I can do that from the square website. Our other location does not have this error message.
