I find it hard to put Square as one of the most important public tech companies. Sure, it might be successful, but is it important?

- ajmarsh 8y agoI'd say yes. Anything that reduces friction in commerce thereby creates more commerce. Time will tell I guess.
- organsnyder 8y agoAs someone who ran a business that accepted credit cards before Square (and others, I'm sure) made it a lot easier, I think it could qualify as important.
- dizzystar 8y agoSquare may seem less important because of Stripe. This is also a very tech-centric viewpoint, as many B&M stores use Square.
- organsnyder 8y agoA number of B&M vendors that used to be cash-only now accept credit cards. Definitely an impact, there.
