On October 16, Block, Inc. rose 5.07% in Regular Trading, trading at $79.67 per share, with turnover of $250 million.
The move followed Square's launch of Square Kiosk, a self-service device for quick-service restaurants that combines a 21.5-inch touchscreen with conversational AI voice ordering, alongside a multi-account management solution for franchise operators.
Square Kiosk is priced at $1,999 and requires a Square Plus or Premium subscription, plus a $99 monthly software fee per device. The product is designed to help restaurant merchants handle peak traffic and labor constraints, while the new multi-location tools support menu, reporting and gift card management across stores. The announcement also fits Block, Inc.'s broader recent push to deepen Square's restaurant and commerce ecosystem through software integrations and merchant wins.
