Does your portfolio need a bit more exposure to the fintech space? There are plenty of great options out there, although payment technology platform Block (XYZ -0.45%) and online banking outfit SoFi Technologies (SOFI 1.02%) are a couple of investors' favorites right now.

Block's post-earnings selloff was overdone - recent product launches and its bitcoin business justify the stock's rapid recovery. Square's new biannual product launch cadence, the first of which included Square Handheld and a Square AI teaser, positions the company to reignite Square segment growth. AI integration into Square POS leverages proprietary data and distribution, offering robust upselling potential and should drive strong future subscription and services revenue.

XYZ's growing merchant network and Cash App tools boost optimism, but the stock still lags amid weak earnings outlook and valuation concerns.

Block plans to launch bitcoin payments on its business technology platform Square, enabling merchants using the Square Point of Sale app to accept bitcoin payments directly through their Square hardware.

Square is piloting real-time bitcoin payments, letting attendees scan and spend crypto for T-shirts, hoodies, and hats at the BTC Inc. pop-up store. The rollout builds on Square's “Bitcoin Conversions” feature and is expected to expand to all eligible merchants by 2026, pending regulatory approval.
