I had a bluetooth keyboard hooked up to my iPad for the Square Stand. Can a keyboard be hooked up to the new register?

Hi @ThePawSpaw, thanks for bringing this up.
At this time, the new Square Register does not support Bluetooth accessories. So that I can share more information with the Register team, can you reply with a bit more information on how you used the keyboard or how it would be helpful for your business?

Hi, Tom - thanks for your response! I keep a fairly detailed customer database, and it is quicker to type in information with a keyboard instead of a stylus/typing on the register. It worked well when I had the keyboard hooked up to the iPad for the Square Stand.

Got it, that makes total sense—especially for entering larger amounts of information. Thank you for taking the time to confirm! While I can't offer a timeline, I'll make sure your experience is documented with the appropriate team members. If it's at all helpful, you can manage your Customer Directory using a computer from your online Square Dashboard as well.

So any update on this in the last year? Would be quite helpful to be able to use a physical keyboard particularly for customer information entry.

I just tried hooking up a generic USB keyboard, and it worked on our Square Register system! I think that's very exciting. Now on to decimal quantities!

How did you connect it to the register?

In one of the 5 USB slots in the hub on the Register system.

This is very exciting news. I type much faster on a keyboard and we use the notes section to record tax exempt and customer information. I will try connecting a keyboard and also check out the customer section.

Hi @Philipmichael! Welcome to the Community.
It looks like Bluetooth accessories aren't compatible but some sellers above found success with a USB keyboard in the USB hub.
