What comes across

Everything that runs your day, mapped for you.

The importer reads Square's own records and creates the matching Eleo ones. You review before anything is written.

Items and variations

Item name, SKU, GTIN, price, default unit cost, category and stock. Each variation becomes its own product — "Logo Tee — Small" — with its own SKU, price and stock.

Locations

If your export covers several locations, you choose which one's stock and location price this Eleo store takes.

Vendors

Each item's default vendor becomes its usual supplier in Eleo, with the vendor code as the supplier's item code. Vendors not yet in Eleo are added as suppliers — add their contact details afterwards.

Tax

Items with every Square tax switched off are marked Exempt, shown in the preview before you import.

Customers

Name, phone, email, address, groups as tags, memo as a note, and email subscription status.

How to get your data

Upload the files you already export.

Export files

In Square Dashboard go to Items → Item library → Actions → Export library, and Customers → Import/Export → Export customers. Upload one or both files to Eleo.

Requires: A Square account with access to the item library and customer directory.

Step by step

From Square to Eleo, start to finish.

  1. Step 1
    Create your Eleo store

    Sign up free, name your store and pick your currency. Two minutes.

  2. Step 2
    Export from Square

    Export your item library and your customer directory. Keep the files exactly as Square gives them.

  3. Step 3
    Open Bulk Actions → Import from Square, Shopify or Loyverse

    Drop the files in. Eleo recognises them, asks which location to take stock and prices from, and previews every item and customer — new or already in Eleo.

  4. Step 4
    Import and watch it land

    Rows are created in the background with a live progress page. Any row that fails can be downloaded, fixed and uploaded again.

What stays behind

Deliberately not imported.

We would rather tell you up front than move something wrongly.

Order and transaction history

Past sales stay in Square. Re-creating them would deduct stock twice and post revenue that pre-dates Eleo.

Variable-price items

Eleo needs a fixed price. The preview counts them; after the import, download the failed rows, add a price and upload that file.

Images and modifier sets

Square's item export carries no images or modifier details. Add photos on each product, and rebuild modifiers as Eleo product options.

Archived items

Left out so you start clean; the preview says how many.

FAQ

Questions merchants ask before moving.

Will importing twice create duplicates?
No. Items are matched by SKU, barcode or name and customers by phone or email; anything already in your Eleo store is skipped and never changed.
I have several Square locations. Which stock comes across?
The location you pick in the preview — by default the one named like your Eleo store. Import each location into its own Eleo store to bring them all.
What happens to my vendors?
Each item is linked to its Square default vendor as its usual supplier, so new purchase orders pre-fill it. Vendors new to Eleo are created without a phone number for you to complete.
What about my sales history?
It stays in Square. Eleo imports your customers so your CRM is complete, but does not re-create past sales.
