Founded as Square, Inc. in 2009 by Jack Dorsey and Jim McKelvey, the company rebranded to Block, Inc. in December 2021 to reflect its growth beyond its initial merchant-focused services. Block's mission is to create tools to help more people access the economy. It operates several businesses: Square, which provides payment processing hardware and software for merchants; Cash App, a consumer-focused mobile payment service; Spiral, a project focused on advancing Bitcoin; and TIDAL, a global music and entertainment platform.
