When the merchant goes to finalize the transaction they click checkout every time. Then they're given options to select cash or credit. Bitcoin is added to that list too. So if you're asking for the merchant to check if they do all you have to do is tell them it should be on the list after checkout.
Fantastic. Asking a merchant "Hey, I see you use square. I heard Bitcoin was added to all square terminals. Any chance you can check to see if Bitcoin shows up on the page after you click checkout?" is a specific enough request that I'd be open to asking as long as there wasn't a line at checkout. Will start giving it a shot.
My understanding is that there is a "bitcoin" payment option. The employee today saw it almost immediately and that has been my experience with other merchants. If the employee sees bitcoin the option they select that instead of cash card check etc.
I am as polite as possible and ask them to 'please look to see if they accept it'
If they select bitcoin it shows a QR code with the amount in sats
If they don't see it perhaps they are missing the latest software or have specifically opted out. The bitcoin payment flow is not the same as the credit card there is no tap to pay (yet) with bitcoin.
Looking at the picture... That's not what it looked like to me. It showed me the number of sats there was no cash app or dollar amount
The picture in the photo is what I see each time at businesses that accept square. Is the employee selecting "credit card" from a list before they flip the terminal to me and I see this screen? Do I need to ask them to go back a screen and select bitcoin instead? I'm just looking for a more specific instruction from someone who has done it (if possible)
Yes go back and select bitcoin. They do not select credit card or cash app. The option literally says 'bitcoin' on their side... Then the amount in sats and a QR for you.
Can anyone share where the employee is to look in between these two steps:
I'd be more inclined to ask if I felt more knowledgeable of what they should be looking for.
Also, what do I expect to see differently if they succeed compared to the square screen I normally see which is the one below? An extra button that says bitcoin somewhere on it?
