Does the Square app have a custom URL scheme?

In my iOS app, as part of the mobile payments options, I'd like to direct users who have the Square app installed on their device to use this as a payment option.

Is there a custom URL scheme that Square uses that would allow me to launch their app from within mine?

Solution

  • Yes, the Square app does have a custom URL schema you can call: square://

    You can also see if the application is installed by the following method:

    - (BOOL)isSquareInstalled 
{ 
    return [[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"square://"]]; 
}
