Block's Neighborhoods Adds 30,000 Sellers, Scaling Local Commerce Network
XYZ sits 70% above its 52-week low of $48.21.
Summary
Block's Neighborhoods feature, which connects Square sellers with Cash App customers, has added 30,000 more sellers, a nearly 10x increase from June. The network now represents $1 billion in annualized GPV, up over 220% from March. This expansion follows Square's rollout of Neighborhoods on additional hardware like Square Terminal, which more than doubled eligible sellers. The growth signals strong adoption of Block's local commerce strategy, leveraging its two-sided ecosystem to drive repeat visits and seller loyalty. With follower spend reaching 10% of seller GPV after three quarters, the program is demonstrating tangible value for merchants. Block is now ramping auto-enablement and testing density-building tactics, indicating continued investment in this high-potential initiative.
