Runs Square payments and the Cash App money app

Block runs Square, which sells card readers and checkout software to businesses, and Cash App, an app people use to send, save, spend, and borrow money. Its first product, a square card reader that plugged into a phone's headphone jack in 2010, let street vendors and other small sellers accept credit cards. Square earns a fee on each card payment and charges for software, while Cash App makes money from its debit card, short-term loans, Afterpay installment plans, and bitcoin sales. Block also owns the music streaming service TIDAL and builds bitcoin hardware, including the Bitkey wallet and Proto mining rigs. Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey co-founded the company in 2009, and its main office is in Oakland, California.
