Merchant Services & Restaurant POS in San Diego.
8blok is a local, bilingual, honest merchant services and POS team serving San Diego and nearby areas. From downtown and the Gaslamp to Chula Vista, National City, Barrio Logan, North Park, and El Cajon, we help restaurants and shops take cards without getting nickel-and-dimed. English or Spanish, whichever you run your business in.
Built for San Diego's small-business backbone.
San Diego runs on small businesses, a lot of them family-owned and Spanish-speaking. Taquerias in Barrio Logan, mariscos in Chula Vista, shops on National Avenue in National City, cafes in North Park and City Heights, restaurants down in El Cajon. Those owners get pitched constantly by processors who never call back. We do the opposite: one local point of contact, honest numbers, and setup done right.
Payments and POS, handled by real people who answer.
Dual pricing / zero-cost processing
A legal, compliant program where card customers pay the processing fee through the card price. We set it up right, or tell you it's not the fit.
How dual pricing works →$5,000 restaurant switching bonus
Established restaurants that move to Shift4 Dine from another company's POS can get a $5,000 signing bonus, paid to their bank account. Terms apply, and we walk you through every one.

Send one month's processing statement and we'll show you what you're really paying, line by line, in English or Spanish. No pressure to switch.

Not locked to one brand. We help San Diego restaurants and shops pick, set up, and run the POS that actually fits how they work, then stay reachable after the install.
We tell you when it's not the right fit
No call centers, no 1-800 runaround, no scripts. If dual pricing would hurt your customer base, or switching processors isn't worth it for you right now, we say so. We'd rather earn a business over years than push a program that doesn't fit. That's the whole reason people refer us.
San Diego owners ask us this.
