Block and Uber Ink Massive Global Partnership to Scale Square’s Ecosystem and Launch Cash App Pay in the US
Tech giants Block, Inc. and Uber Technologies, Inc. have announced a multi-faceted global partnership designed to redefine restaurant operations and payment flexibility. The collaboration marks a significant expansion of the Square and Uber Eats integration into six new international markets: Canada, Australia, the UK, Ireland, France, and Spain. Simultaneously, Block is launching Cash App Pay as a dedicated payment method across Uber and Uber Eats in the United States, providing 59 million monthly active users—predominantly Gen Z and Millennials—with a seamless checkout experience.
Susan Anderson, Uber’s Global Head of Delivery, highlighted the synergy, stating that the expansion builds on a successful US foundation to empower restaurants with new growth avenues. By integrating Cash App Pay, Uber aims to tap into a younger, mobile-first demographic, offering them reliable and flexible payment options for both rides and delivery. This follows last year’s successful rollout of Block’s Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solution, Afterpay, within the Australian market, cementing a long-term strategic alliance between the two powerhouses.
