It outlines Square's hardware like card readers and stands, software for food delivery and analytics, finances with a market cap of $1.46B but not profitable, and business model of free marketing and percentage cuts. The history notes it was founded in 2009 by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and has since cut losses by moving to single point of sale. Competitors include PayPal, Intuit, and VeriFone, and the prediction is that Square will succeed by reducing losses, expanding software, and building their brand.
