Now you can start buying everything you own directly through Shop Pay!!!

Exactly. There are two stores that we've purchased stuff from (in a brick and mortar store) where we now get texts from them giving us discounts or coupons if we come spend X money by Y date.

And there are lots of small businesses that we purchase from that use "Square" for their cc purchases. I've never gotten any sort of SPAM from Square or had an account or anything like that, but we'll occasionally purchase from a new place and they'll automatically know my email address (to email the receipt) because they are also using Square.
