Nice coverage of Charlie and co.'s bar in New York taking bitcoins. Quote Will that be cash, charge or robo-money? After years of being relegated to a seedy online market, Bitcoin is creeping into the mainstream — including a Midtown lounge that began accepting the digital currency as a method of payment recently and has since racked up $7,000 in electro-cash revenues.

What other bars and restaurants are waiting for? Title: Re: 2013-04-22 NY Post - E Cash biz: Yes we scan Post by: internationalaw on April 22, 2013, 09:08:23 PM $7,000 is a lot more than I would have imagined in such a short time

- Bitpay: $7k minus 0,99% = U$ 6.930,70 in merchant's bank account the next day (Zero Fraud Risk); - Credit Cards: $7k minus 3,70% minus $14 (assuming 140 transactions of U$ 50,00 on average) = U$ 6.727,00 (Risk of Fraud and Chargebacks up to 6 months later). Basically, U$ 203,70 more and no chargeback risk. https://i.imgur.com/pBqMYnb.png Quote Why not? |
