SMS Marketing for Bars & Breweries on Square
Your best guests already paid on Square. ReturnFlowHQ keeps them warm with personal, low-pressure texts timed for when they actually go out.
Problems bars and breweries hit without SMS retention
- Regulars drift to the next spot with no owned channel
- Events and tap releases need reach beyond social
- Staff cannot personally text the full book

FAQ
Can I pause during slow seasons?
Yes. Pay-as-you-go means you are not locked into a heavy monthly marketing seat when volume is low.
How fast can a bar launch SMS with Square?
Most operators connect Square in minutes and import customers automatically. We provision a number and file carrier registration; customer texts start after approval (usually 1–3 days) once send credit is available.
Will ReturnFlowHQ spam my bar customers?
No. Cooldowns, daily caps, send windows, and STOP handling are built in. Guests who visited today are excluded from that day's batch.
