The troubleshooting is no help to me at this point. I need to speak to someone over the phone to get this issue resolved as this is my business credit card machine.

Thank you

I'm assuming you've tried cleaning out the lightning port on the iPad with canned air?  Are there any signs of obvious corrosion on the lightning adapter built into the Square Stand?  Does the iPad recognize other lightning accessories/cables when connected?

Yes we have cleaned everything. There is no visible corrosion on the adaptor nor the charging port.

I have same issue.  Did you get it fixed?

Y'all check out your hub status from within Stand. I am having same issue of the undecisiveness of connecting or not and it seems that the hub is bad since it is not "found." This should fall under a warranty somewhere.  Hope this helps! 

As am I. I have not gotten anywhere with this. It is very disappointing that there is no customer service number to actually talk to someone about fixing it.

Are there alternatives/competitors to square that do provide customer service?

Hello @Mcrowder16 and @PuraVidaDance. We do provide phone support. If you look at the top of this thread you can see where @Tom posted our Support Teams phone number.

If you're having trouble giving us a call just let one of us know. 

Same issue here... any luck finding the problem? Both iPad and stand are about 6 months old. Very frustrating for customers and me!

At least the stand gave you six months. I just bought two stands for an Aug 25th outdoor festival, so I haven't even used it yet and the issue started occuring about 5-7 days after pulling it out of the box.

Hi @hlzma and @NachoMama

Were you able to try any troubleshooting? What version iOS were you running? Check out this existing thread to be sure this doesn't apply to you:

Known Issue With Square Stand and iOS 11.4

This article provides some tips as well: 

Square Stand Troubleshooting

If you're still having trouble, give our CS Team a call directly and we can go through some things with you. 

Sorry for the trouble. Sounds like there might be a software issue with the POS app or the iOS. Make sure the versions for both are updated to the latest.

As an extra troubleshooting step, reinstall the app if there are no pending offline payments waiting to be uploaded.

Let me know how it goes @favwaffle

Hi! so I updated the POS app and iOS, both are the latest version. also, I reinstalled the app. and still iPad is charging well but Square stands not connected and I cannot take payment with Swipe. Thank God I have a chip reader, which cannot charge from the hub, and the printer is not connected too. how is possible square stand to charge iPad but USB hub not charging Reader and Printer disable??? I can't understand, please I hope you will find answers and explanations! Thank you!

Thanks for running through those troubleshooting steps. You're right - that is a bit bizarre that the iPad is charging while in the stand but your accessories are not working. There's either some sort of shortage in the power cord or the USB block on the power cord is dead. 

Nonetheless, your Stand is eligible for warranty if purchased within a year.  @favwaffle

thank you!
