According to CoinDesk, a digital asset (cryptocurrency) trade publication, on the 30th (local time) Block introduced a feature that automatically enables bitcoin payments on existing payment systems without additional setup.

At checkout, bitcoin is immediately converted into U.S. dollars, allowing merchants to accept it without exposure to price volatility or the burden of custody.

The service will also be offered with no fees through 2026.

The move, part of the “Square Bitcoin” strategy, is seen as an effort to integrate digital-asset payments more naturally into everyday commerce.
