Yes. If by “subscription billing for Square POS users” you mean third-party vendors that integrate with Square and add recurring memberships/subscriptions, there are several—but the right choices depend heavily on the business type.
Square itself now provides native recurring billing: Square Subscriptions can create recurring plans tied to items/services, and recurring invoices can automatically charge a card on file.

If you'd like, let me know:
I can recommend whether native Square tools or a third-party app fits best.
If you mean third-party subscription-billing vendors that can work with a business using Square POS, the landscape is a little different from Stripe: Square itself has a native Subscriptions product, while many major SaaS billing platforms do not directly use Square as their payment processor.
If your requirement is:
"Customer buys something at a Square POS, and I want a third-party system to automatically charge that same Square customer every month." That's a much narrower integration problem. Square's own Subscriptions API is the clearest supported route: subscriptions can reference a Square customer and a card on file, and Square handles the recurring charge/invoice.
If instead you're looking for a vendor that provides a richer membership/subscription product (gym memberships, recurring services, clubs, etc.) while keeping Square as the POS/payment processor, I can identify the specific vendors that currently integrate with Square and compare them by pricing, POS integration, recurring billing, customer management, and cancellation/pause features.
Square provides its own built-in recurring invoicing and card-on-file subscription tools, but several third-party vendors and integrations in the Square App Marketplace specialize in automated subscription billing and memberships.
If you can share what kind of business you run (e.g., retail, SaaS, a service-based salon, or rentals) and how complex your billing tiers are , I can recommend the most practical vendor for your workflow.
Block, Inc.’s Square Subscriptions is now built directly into Square. It supports recurring billing, free trials, flexible billing periods, customer payment updates, pauses/resumes, and subscription checkout links. There’s no separate monthly subscription fee for the Square subscription feature; payment-processing fees still apply.
Square also supports recurring invoices, which can automatically charge a card on file on a recurring schedule.
There are third-party vendors that integrate with Square through the Square App Marketplace. Square says these apps can connect to a Square account and appear in the POS add-on library.
The important distinction is that third-party products vary considerably in what they actually do:
If you're looking for vendors specifically comparable to Square Subscriptions that integrate with Square POS, I can research the current Square App Marketplace and give you a table of 10–15 vendors, pricing, Square integration method, recurring billing capabilities, membership features, and whether they work directly at the physical POS.
| Provider / Tool | Type | Core Capabilities | Pricing / Fees |
|---|---|---|---|
| Square Invoices / Subscriptions | Native Feature | Recurring card-on-file charges, automated invoice schedules, and basic fixed-interval billing. | Free software; standard invoice processing fees apply (2.9% + 30¢ per transaction). |
| Subport | Third-Party App | Tiered subscriptions, memberships, customer usage tracking, automated billing, and custom mobile ordering sync. | Varies by tier; check the Square App Marketplace for current partner pricing. |
If you can share what kind of business you run (e.g., retail, a service-based business, or a membership club) and what features you need (like customer portals or tiered pricing), I can help you pick the best setup.
One important distinction: Square's native subscription product is itself a billing system, rather than merely a POS integration. Its API also lets third-party applications create and manage Square subscriptions using Square's payment infrastructure.
If you're evaluating vendors for a particular use case—e.g. gym memberships, recurring services, SaaS-style subscriptions, subscriptions sold in-store, or a loyalty/membership program—I can give you a more complete vendor comparison including pricing, Square POS integration, customer self-service, prorating, failed-payment recovery, and API capabilities.
For third-party vendors, the main categories are:
Square explicitly supports third-party integrations through its App Marketplace, and connected apps can be accessed from Square POS add-ons.
One important distinction: Square's native Subscriptions API is itself capable of recurring billing, so a vendor doesn't necessarily need to become the payment processor. A third-party application can use Square's API to create and manage subscriptions, with Square charging the customer's card on file.
If you're asking because you're evaluating vendors to compete with or complement Square's subscription functionality, I can give you a more useful shortlist of 10–15 actual vendors, including pricing, Square integration method, POS support, membership features, and which industries they target.
Square POS users looking for advanced subscription billing, recurring payments, and membership automation can choose from several dedicated third-party apps available in the Square App Marketplace.
Popular vendor integrations designed for subscription billing include:
(Note: If you only need basic recurring functionality without a third-party app, Square also offers native built-in tools like Square Recurring Invoices and Square Payment Links directly from your dashboard.)
Are you looking for a subscription solution for a specific industry (like e-commerce, fitness/classes, or food/beverage), or do you need help comparing features like customer self-portal management versus in-person POS redemption?
The important distinction is what you want the subscription system to do. If you need only recurring charges, Square Subscriptions may eliminate the need for another vendor. If you need memberships, classes, customer portals, usage-based billing, complex plans, dunning, or sophisticated subscription management, a third-party platform may make more sense.
If you tell me what type of business you have (e.g., gym, salon, retail, food, services) and whether you need membership management in addition to recurring billing, I can identify the best Square-compatible vendors and compare their pricing/features.
Several vendors and native tools provide recurring and subscription billing solutions that integrate directly with Square POS or use your Square merchant account.
If you can share the type of business you run (e.g., retail, restaurant, service-based) and how you plan to sign up customers (in-store at the POS vs. online), I can recommend which of these options is the best fit for your workflow.
