Some payment gateways charge transaction fees. See fee details for Square here.
With our new Square Checkout payments, you can collect one-time or recurring charges right from the document using the payment app with any payment method set up in your Square account.

Send the document and collect payment
Once you are ready, send out your document
When your recipient opens the document they see a pop-up “Online payment available”. They fill out the required information and select Finish at the top of the page. After that, the document status will become “Waiting for payment”
To proceed to payment, they click Pay
Once the payment has been cleared, the document status will become “Paid”.
You and your recipients will receive a confirmation email to notify you the payment has gone through.
Once a document is paid, a new Customer record will be created in Square.
Set up recurring charges in PandaDoc
You can set up recurring charges in your catalog and collect them via Square with a help of quote builder.

Next, add a product with a recurring price to the catalog (available billing period options: Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Annually)
