Square Lets Merchants Sync Apple Maps Listings From Dashboard

The integration lets sellers update hours, contact details and action links in Square so those changes appear across Apple Maps, Siri and Apple Wallet.

Overview

  • Square announced on Sept. 24 that eligible merchants can connect locations from the Square Dashboard to Apple Business and push updates to Apple Maps, Siri and Apple Wallet.
  • The tool automatically synchronizes core business details such as hours, address and phone so merchants no longer need to edit Apple listings separately.
  • Sellers can add action links — Menu, Order, Pickup, Delivery, Book, or Schedule Appointment — so customers can take those actions directly from an Apple Maps place card.
  • The feature is live for qualifying merchants in eight markets: the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, France, Ireland, Japan and Spain, and US/Canada business-verified sellers can enroll in Apple Business through Square.
  • Block framed the launch as part of a wider merchant-discovery push tied to recent AI partnerships, cited Apple metrics on listing engagement, and said additional place-card analytics and peer benchmarks are planned with no release date given.
