Integrate Pescheck with Square
What is Square?
- Start screenings from Square
- No retyping of candidate details
- Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
Starting a screening from team data
You start a Pescheck screening for a new or existing team member without re-entering their details.
Details flow in
Name, email address and role or location come from Square, so the person receives the right Pescheck invitation straight away.
Status comes back
Progress is visible from Square's side as far as Square's API allows, so you can see whether a check is finished before the first shift.
Sensitive documents stay in Pescheck
ID scans and certificates of conduct stay in Pescheck's ISO 27001 certified environment, not in your POS or team tools.
Where screening fits in a Square workflow
Square is not a recruiting system, so screening usually connects at the moment a new person is added to the team, before they get POS access, a key or their first shift. For roles that handle cash, stock or customer data, a check on identity, references or criminal record before that first shift is a sensible minimum. Businesses with several locations may also want to re-screen staff who move into a manager role.
Without an integration, the owner or manager copies the new team member's details into a separate screening tool and tracks the outcome by hand. With the integration, the screening starts from the team member who is already in Square.
How the connection works
Pescheck connects with Square through Kombo, an integration platform for HR software that many HR tech vendors use. The Square account owner or an admin authorises the connection once. You choose in Pescheck which checks belong to which roles, for example ID, criminal record, references or employment history, and our integration team helps you set this up per location.
Connect once
Your admin connects Square to Pescheck through Kombo with a secure authorisation. No custom development.
Start screening where you work
Recruiters and HR start a Pescheck screening from the record in Square. The candidate gets a secure invitation to give consent.
Follow progress in one place
Status updates come back to the record, so nobody copies data between systems.
Who uses it
The integration suits small and multi-location businesses that manage their team in Square, such as hospitality, retail and personal services, and hire in Europe. It is useful when you want every new team member screened the same way, GDPR-compliant, without adding an HR department to do it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Because many cafés, shops and salons keep their team members, roles and locations in the same Square account as their sales. Pescheck reads those team members through Kombo, so a check can start from someone you already added in Square.
Yes. Once the new team member is in Square, they come over to Pescheck and you order the check there, ideally before they get POS access or a key. Whether the result shows in Square depends on what Square's API allows.
For people handling cash, stock or customer data, a verified ID plus a criminal record check, such as a VOG in the Netherlands, is a sensible minimum. References or employment history can be added for supervisors.
Yes. Existing team members can be sent to Pescheck again, for example after a promotion or a move to another site. They give consent again in their own Pescheck invitation.
No. Only the team member's name, email address and role or location are used. The person agrees to the check in Pescheck, and ID scans and certificates of conduct stay there, away from your POS.
