Leaving Square

How to switch from Square Appointments to Fadelio

Get your client directory into a barber-built system in about 20 minutes.

Why barbers leave Square

  • Square is built for every shop on earth — none of it speaks barber.
  • The good stuff (proper deposits, no-show protection, retention) is bolted on or missing.
  • You're paying processing AND a subscription for a generic tool.

Move your clients across in ~20 minutes

  1. 1

    Sign in to your Square Dashboard on a computer.

  2. 2

    Go to Customers → Directory, then Import/Export → Export — Square emails or downloads a CSV.

  3. 3

    Save that file (Downloads folder is fine).

  4. 4

    In Fadelio, go to Clients → Import, pick the file, and check the preview.

  5. 5

    Click Import — names, numbers and emails are mapped for you, duplicates merged.

Good to know · Square's export is your customer directory, not future appointments. Re-add any booked-in appointments when you go live (~20 minutes for a typical shop), or hand us the file and we'll set it up.
