PayPal vs. Block Valuations, Plus Amazon Offers Pickup Incentive While Spotify Cracks Down on AI Streams 5/9/23

from TechCheck · host CNBC

PayPal is the better profitability play, yet trails Block’s valuation by a mile. But does any of that matter when pretty much all of fintech are commodity services anyway? Plus, Amazon is offering a $10 incentive for some customers who choose to pick up a purchase in store instead of have it delivered, and Spotify is tackling AI bots who inflate streaming numbers. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
