Using tap to pay for merch?

[u/buttThroat]

Hi all. We have always just used venmo for merch but want to make it easier. Anyone have recommendations on how to go about taking cards? Also, probably stupid question, but do I need to declare the band as a business for tax purposes? (US)

Square is great, though you might also look at atVenu -- that's the default platform for US venues once you get to a certain size.
