Square has updated its wallet app so that consumers can order gift cards using their mobile handsets, although the cards are only available for those businesses which process payments using Square’s card reader.

The new service is an alternative to consumers going into a store and purchasing the physical gift card they want. The addition to the wallet app, which is available for both Apple and Android devices, is also an attempt to match a similar service from PayPal. With Square, gift cards can range in value from US$10 to US$1,000.
