flag Steak 'n Shake saw sales rise after adding Bitcoin payments, cutting fees, and using Bitcoin for bonuses and new initiatives.

flag Steak 'n Shake reported a significant rise in same-store sales after launching Bitcoin payments in May 2025, citing a 10% increase in Q2 and 15% in Q3 2025, along with a 50% drop in payment processing fees. flag The chain directs all Bitcoin payments into a Strategic Reserve, now valued at about $10.96 million, holding roughly 161.6 BTC, though it remains below average purchase cost. flag The company uses the reserve to fund employee bonuses and support long-term goals, including a new Bitcoin-linked incentive program for workers. flag It also introduced a Bitcoin-themed burger, with proceeds supporting open-source development. flag The chain attributes the sales boost to customer interest in using cryptocurrency, calling it a transformative shift in its operations.
