Your Square history stays in Square; Claver handles new invoices, deposits, Tap to Pay, and recurring billing going forward. Prefer to keep collecting in Square for now? You still get the full app and mark invoices paid in Claver. We don't yet plug into Square or PayPal directly. If that's a dealbreaker, tell us.
