Sharing a Terminal with other buskers now has a proper guide. Plus refreshed FAQs on the setup sequence and Square's timeout beep.
BuskerGo turns your Square Terminal into a contactless tip jar — so you never have to stop playing.
Set up once. Press start. Your audience taps to tip on a dedicated payment terminal while you focus on your performance. No cash handling. No awkward interruptions. No phone passed around.
How it works
• Connect your Square account
• Pair your Square Terminal
• Set your tip amount and session duration
• Tap Start Collecting — and play
Tips process automatically. Your terminal resets after every payment and stays ready for the next person in the crowd.
Setlists with spoken intros
Build a setlist inside BuskerGo, write a short intro for each track, and BuskerGo speaks it out loud between songs in a natural voice. Lock your phone and your full set plays through — spoken intros lead straight into each song, no need to wake the phone or touch the screen between tracks. Edit setlists from any browser at buskergo.com; changes sync to your phone in seconds.
See exactly where every tip goes
Each transaction in your Dashboard is laid out as a deposit stub — gross tip, Square's processing fee, BuskerGo's 1% platform fee, and the net you actually receive. No surprises.
Transparent pricing
• Square's standard in-person rate (1.6%–2.6% depending on country)
• 1% to BuskerGo per tip
• No subscription, no setup fee
Built for the street
BuskerGo was built by a Montreal busker who got tired of missing tips while playing. Every decision — from the one-tap start to the hands-free session timer to locked-screen playback — was made with a live performance in mind.
What you need
• A Square account (free to sign up)
• A Square Terminal device (one-time purchase from Square — about US$299 / CA$339 / £259 / AU$329)
Available for buskers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Tips are processed in your local currency (USD, CAD, GBP, AUD) automatically based on your Square account's location. English and French.

• Share a Square Terminal with your busker friends. A new guide walks through the shift-handoff flow that lets multiple buskers use one physical Terminal — each person keeps their own Square account, their own tips, and their own bank deposits. Find it at buskergo.com/share-a-square-terminal/ or via the new "Sharing a Terminal with other buskers?" link on the homepage.
• Refreshed FAQ across the site with three new answers: the exact 5-step setup sequence, the Square Terminal's normal 5-minute idle beep (and how to lower the volume in the Terminal's own Settings menu), and how multiple buskers can share one Terminal.
• Regional "Get a Square Terminal" links. Visitors from Australia, the UK, the US, or French-speaking Canada now land on Square's local hardware page in the right currency, instead of a generic international page.
• Clearer CTA copy: "Get a Square Terminal" replaced the older "Sign up for Square" wording throughout, matching where the links actually take you.
Under the hood, no changes to how the app collects tips, plays your setlists, or handles background audio. If your app has been working, it will keep working exactly as it did.
