The differences
How they compare
Regional & tax fit
WDPW includes ETA-ready e-receipts, Arabic (RTL), and EGP pricing, and targets MENA delivery and compliance. Square is focused on its core global markets — verify its availability and Egyptian tax compliance for your location.
Pricing model
WDPW is a flat annual EGP price with unlimited POS devices. Square typically pairs a POS tier with per-transaction payment processing, so compare the total cost for your card volume.
Hardware & devices
Both run on tablets. WDPW runs on any iPad, Android tablet, or browser with no proprietary hardware; Square also sells its own readers and registers.
Restaurant depth
WDPW is restaurant-specific end to end — KDS, floor plan, recipes, a delivery-aggregator hub, and workforce. Square serves many business types with a dedicated restaurant product.
