    First things first. Thank you for releasing a major bug fix! Much appreciated I was losing faith in Square and WooCommerce!

    Question:
    Is it possible to change the label for the card verification Postcode?
    It just says ‘Postcode’.

    Please can you change it to ‘Billing postcode’ like the official squareup store?
    https://squareup.com/shop/hardware/gb/en

    If you cannot change it globally please can you provide the code so I can override it with CSS or functions.php?

    Hi there @thomasjarvisdesign,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    You can do this by using a free translation plugin like Loco Translate (https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/). 

    I know it may sound strange to “translate” your own language, but it works. 🙂 This will allow you to find that phrase and change it to be what you’d like:

    This is what I see on my checkout page now:

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.

    Hi This is a very convoluted solution to the problem.
    I’d rather not add weight to my install by adding another plugin.

    The problem is people in the UK are not used to entering their postcode to verify a bank card. No other provider explicitly asks for this. A lot of people in the UK rent and change addresses frequently. Meaning the bank card postcode doesn’t match the billing postcode in a lot of cases.

    This works:

    /* add text for label | SKO */
label[for="wc-square-credit-card-postal-code-hosted"]:before{
content:'Billing ';
}

    I’d recommend adding this to the Square plugin as standard. It just makes it more obvious what is required.
