Represents a postal address in a country. The address format is based on an open-source library from Google. For more information, see AddressValidationMetadata. This format has dedicated fields for four address components: postal code, locality (city), administrative district (state, prefecture, or province), and sublocality (town or village). These components have dedicated fields in the Address object because software sometimes behaves differently based on them. For example, sales tax software may charge different amounts of sales tax based on the postal code, and some software is only available in certain states due to compliance reasons.

For the remaining address components, the Address type provides the address_line_1 and address_line_2 fields for free-form data entry. These fields are free-form because the remaining address components have too many variations around the world and typical software does not parse these components. These fields enable users to enter anything they want.

Note that, in the current implementation, all other Address type fields are blank. These include address_line_3, sublocality_2, sublocality_3, administrative_district_level_2, administrative_district_level_3, first_name, last_name, and organization.

When it comes to localization, the seller's language preferences (see Language preferences) are ignored for addresses. Even though Square products (such as Square Point of Sale and the Seller Dashboard) mostly use a seller's language preference in communication, when it comes to addresses, they will use English for a US address, Japanese for an address in Japan, and so on.

A tender represents a discrete monetary exchange. Square represents this exchange as a money object with a specific currency and amount, where the amount is given in the smallest denomination of the given currency.

Square POS can accept more than one form of tender for a single payment (such as by splitting a bill between a credit card and a gift card). The tender field of the Payment object lists all forms of tender used for the payment.

Split tender payments behave slightly differently from single tender payments:

The receipt_url for a split tender corresponds only to the first tender listed in the tender field. To get the receipt URLs for the remaining tenders, use the receipt_url fields of the corresponding Tender objects.

A note on gift cards*: when a customer purchases a Square gift card from a merchant, the merchant receives the full amount of the gift card in the associated payment.

When that gift card is used as a tender, the balance of the gift card is reduced and the merchant receives no funds. A Tender object with a type of SQUARE_GIFT_CARD indicates a gift card was used for some or all of the associated payment.
