Square + Programación para Accountants & CPAs
Accounting firms experience extreme seasonal demand swings — quiet summers give way to frantic tax seasons. Integrations with SchedulingKit adjust your availability templates seasonally, prioritize recurring clients during peak periods, and automate the document-request workflows that precede every tax preparation session.
Professional services firms—consultants, advisors, law offices, accounting practices—lose significant revenue to unqualified prospects and no-show meetings. The payment integration solves this by creating a financial commitment at booking time, filtering out unserious inquiries and protecting your billable calendar.
Structure your payment requirements by meeting type: discovery calls might remain free to attract leads, while strategy sessions, legal consultations, and financial reviews collect a consultation fee that compensates the professional for their preparation and expertise. Prospects who pay for a meeting are dramatically more likely to attend and more likely to convert to ongoing clients.
For engagement-starting meetings, collect retainer deposits that signal client commitment and fund the initial work. Different service lines can have independent pricing—a 30-minute tax question at $75 versus a 90-minute estate planning session at $350. The professional checkout experience also signals credibility; clients who encounter a polished payment flow associate your firm with the premium service they expect.
For accountants & cpas professionals specifically, SchedulingKit's Square integration addresses a common pain point: the disconnect between booking and payments workflows. Rather than toggling between tools, your accountants & cpas team gets a unified experience where every appointment automatically flows into Square—saving time you can reinvest in serving clients.
Accounting practices price meetings by type—tax preparation, bookkeeping review, general consultation—each at different rates. The payment integration handles this multi-tier pricing so clients see and pay the correct rate when they select their meeting type, with annual service packages offering bundled discounts.

Preguntas frecuentes
Can different meeting types have different rates?
Yes. Configure independent pricing per meeting type—tax preparation at one rate, bookkeeping review at another, general consultation at a third. Clients see the price when they select their meeting type and pay at booking.
Can annual service packages bundle multiple meeting types at a discount?
Yes. Create package products that include monthly bookkeeping reviews, quarterly planning sessions, and annual tax preparation at a combined rate. Clients purchase the package upfront and book each included meeting type against their package.
Can I offer free discovery calls alongside paid consultations?
Yes. Create a "Free Discovery Call" event type with no payment requirement and a "Paid Consultation" type with your hourly or flat-rate fee. Prospects book the free call first; those who want to proceed book the paid engagement.
Can I charge different rates for different service types?
Yes. Each event type has independent pricing. A 30-minute tax question might be $75, while a 90-minute estate planning session could be $350. You set the rate, and clients see and pay the amount when they book.
How do retainer deposits work?
Configure a deposit amount or percentage for engagement-starting event types. When a client books a "Strategy Session" or "Engagement Kickoff," the retainer deposit is collected at booking. The deposit appears as a line item on the payment receipt.
What if a client disputes a payment?
Payment disputes (chargebacks) are handled by your payment processor's standard dispute process. SchedulingKit provides booking confirmation details, timestamps, and cancellation records that you can submit as evidence during the dispute resolution.
Can I use Square hardware for in-person payments alongside online booking payments?
Yes. Square's ecosystem connects online payments from SchedulingKit bookings with in-person payments through Square Terminal, Square Reader, or Square Register. All transactions appear in your Square Dashboard, giving you unified reporting across both channels.
Does Square offer business management features beyond payments?
Yes. Square includes invoicing, inventory tracking, team management, customer directory, and sales analytics at no additional monthly cost. When combined with SchedulingKit, you get a complete booking-to-payment-to-reporting workflow from a single payment provider.
What accountants & cpas-specific configuration should I set up in Square?
Bill tax-preparation clients a flat fee at booking while advisory clients pay hourly, managing both pricing models cleanly within one payment system. This is the most impactful setting for accountants & cpas professionals—configure it during initial setup and revisit it quarterly as your accountants & cpas workflow evolves.
Will the Square integration scale as my accountants & cpas business grows?
Yes. The Square integration handles increasing booking volume without any configuration changes. Whether you're running a solo accountants & cpas practice or managing a multi-location team, the integration scales with your SchedulingKit plan. There are no per-booking limits on the Square connection—growth in your accountants & cpas business means growth in integration value, not additional integration cost.
Is the Square integration included in my SchedulingKit plan?
Yes. The Square integration is available on all SchedulingKit plans, including the free tier. You may have separate costs from Square itself depending on your usage level and the features you need from their platform.
