Transaction Search
Square’s transaction search allows you to search for credit or debit card charges made using the Square App.
You can search transactions by:
Tapping the customer's original payment card directly on Square hardware (to filter card transactions paid to your business)
Customer information (name, phone number, email)
Credit or debit card number used in the transaction (using the last 4 digits of the customer's card)
Receipt ID (located at the bottom of the receipt sent)
Item or ticket name
Item, bill, tender or ticket note
Device name
Note: Related transactions within the last year of the search date will be listed in your search results.
