  • About Release Manager

    With Release Manager, you get access to features from Square for Restaurants before their official release. Release Manager lets you opt in to new features early on a per-device basis, so you can enable features on your devices at your convenience. You can also enable features on a single device to train your staff before enabling features on all relevant devices.

    You can always revert back to the previous experience before the end of the introductory period. At the end of the introductory period, new features will be automatically rolled out across all your devices.

    Before you begin

    You can enable and disable Release Manager features from your Square Dashboard.

    To see your new features in your point of sale, reset your point of sale device or app.
