The information unveiled in the company’s unaudited financial report indicates a total revenue of over $12.1 billion for the same period. This breakdown shows that $3.2B of this revenue is from transaction-based sources, $3.4B from subscriptions and services, and$75.4million from hardware.
Substantial annual revenue increase.
Block’s total revenue for the first half of 2024 was significantly higher than that of the same period in the previous year by more than $1 billion. This growth demonstrates the company’s growing presence in digital payments. Moreover, Block had 1 billion U.S. dollars worth of Bitcoin for its users as of June 2024, which proves Block’s participation in the cryptocurrency market.
Some of the factors that have been associated with Block’s revenue rise include its CashApp collaboration. This service under Block enables people to make payments through a mobile application. In April 2021, Block and CashApp introduced a new integration that allows selected merchants to convert a percentage of their daily sales into Bitcoin. This collaboration is to help business owners easily engage in the global monetary system.
