Block to Launch Bitcoin Payments on Square

|

Block, Inc. today announced it will launch bitcoin payments on Square using the Lightning Network. Bitcoin payments on Square will be showcased at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas from May 27-29, where attendees can experience this new feature firsthand at the BTC Inc. merchandise store. Merchants will be able to accept bitcoin payments nearly instantaneously using the Lightning Network.

“Block has long been a champion of bitcoin, focused on making it more accessible and usable in our everyday lives,” said Miles Suter, Bitcoin Product Lead at Block. “Rolling out a native bitcoin experience to millions of sellers brings us one step closer to that goal. When a coffee shop or retail store can accept bitcoin through Square, small businesses get paid faster, and get to keep more of their revenue. This is about economic empowerment for merchants who like to have options when it comes to accepting payments.”
