2.75% is ALL fee you pay, not on top of 3% credit card transaction fees. E.g ., a $100 product, merchant will get $97.25 in their bank if they use Square. It's cheaper than what many banks would charge you. For those business that haven't started taking credit card, Square is much easier to set up. You just need a smart phone or tablet, and download their app, you are all set. No need to go to bank, no need to install POS machines etc. For those who are already taking credit cards using other devices, Square's rate could be cheaper. They also provide a lot of value added services such as storing all your transactions history in the cloud, providing online analytics tools etc.

Merchants pay Square 2.75% of the sale amount, then Square pays Visa/MC, banks etc. 2.75% is ALL fee a merchant pays. Simple as it is. So Square's profit margin is very very low now, I guess. But they are focusing on market penetration, and they have a relatively deep pocket thanks to 疯投。

Square provides some value added services, and its pricing is much simpler for a human to understand. For some scenarios, it's also cheaper. So some existing credit card merchants may still switch to Square. Refer to Square/Starbucks deal, SBUX certainly has POS. Of course, that's a strategic partnership between them, so it's a little different. Majority of it's 1M+ merchants were not taking credit card payment until they started using Square. so this statement "美国现在还不接受信用卡的商家,也一定不会用 square的。。" is not correct.

square uses JPM. Visa invested in Square though. Merchants only pay square. They only deal with Square. Request a free card reader from Square and try it, you will know.
