First steps to get coins as an accepted payment method at Amazon:

www.change.org/p/jeff-bezos-doge4amazon-accept-dogecoin-as-a-payment-method

it is interesting to see whether they will accept dogecoin as a means of payment. hope this petition is successful

I also hope they accept dogecoin. That would be a good sign.

Wow, nice news. If doge coin is accepted at amazon is open the way for being accepted of crypto currencies in the world. Soon or later , Etherum will be the same. I'm gonna buy more doge and ETH for now. Thanks for your information sir.

There are no official word from Amazon that they are accepting crypto as mode of payment. There was also a petition to accept bitcoin and litecoin as well.

No need to be excited here. This is just a petition. And we even don't know if Jeff really read those. But I have to agree that if ever they have decided to accept crypto, it will be a big boost for them as well as the ecosystem. Amazon is the #1 and the world's largest online retailer and accepting crypto will be a like close to widespread bitcoin adoption that we are all been waiting for.

I couldn’t agree more. At the emd of the day, petitions will remain as petitions unless it is approved. And I don’t think amazon is ready to jump into cryptos at this time. But maybe after a few more years or months.

Although it would be really awesome, i prefer to not be excited about this too much amd expect.

sorry to say,but it's a dream for us to see something like this in the future.
until now,they're still not accepting Bitcoin and still review it.
but i heard rumour regarding their decision about Bitcoin as their payment point[Rumour].
(i do not think it will happen this time and a few years later on),
so about dogecoin ?
it will never be,until they are starting to implement Bitcoin as their payment point and other alts.
but for now,it will never ever be a payment point on amazon.
no matter what

It's not news, dude.  Amazon doesn't accept any crypto, nor will they anytime soon.   Especially not doge.  If they were to start taking any coin, it'd be bitcoin.  So no need to rush out to buy doge or anything else.

I'd be happy to spend doge at Amazon, and it sure would be nice if they did end up taking it.  I don't think online petitions are effective for anything, though.   I'll keep my fingers crossed but I won't get my hopes up.

At the end of the day Amazon will accept or refuse.

If Amazon refuses too long to accept cryptocurrency - then a competitor will jump in and take Amazons stake of the cake!

It would be hilarious if Amazon accepted Dogecoin before Bitcoin.
That would pump the exchange rate of Doge to the sky.
I will sign the petition because I like crypto implementation and it's also good for the popularity of cryptocurrencies.

 ;D , this will mean many will be smiling to the bank including my humble self. This is even a good news that a petition is already going on. I better safe guard the few thousand I have, good good stuff might be at the corner.

You can have 10 miilions people joining your petition Amazon won't even read it and never take it seriously. In the case they start to think to accept cryptocurrencies as a payment method, do you think they will to add such a joke altcoin like dogecoin?


The thing is Amazon has not much competitor at its same level. Maybe Ebay ? Then which ? Amazon has so much products (like Prime etc) that no other one has, so it won't hurt the company so much

 This will be nice if petition for dogecoin as payment method will be successful. An alt coin will be recognize in the world and they will also accept some cryptos like ethereum, litecoin and monero. If the amazon will accept it for sure other online seller and platform will also accept alt coin cryptos as a payment method for purchase.

Yes, AGREE.

This will be nice. If this petition goes through and dogecoin becomes accepted as means of payment, this will automatically increase the value of the coin because its relevance will be known and people will start hurting for it. It economic value will "skyrocket ".

Thats why its been called as petition since it would really need to be approved and they would really remain as petition if they didnt approved as simple as that.It is somehow good to see this kind of petition on pushing DOGEcoin but i dont think that Amazon would decide to jump into crypto and they would decide to adopt it into their service.

I don't believe in a successful outcome of this petition. I heard that Amazon will be from October this year to sell goods for bitcoins. This is a more profitable option but this is not happening. The state does not support such trade. I'm sure that Amazon will not go into conflict with the government. They have something to lose. The petition will be without consideration.

Haven't heard the new president bashing against cryptocurrency yet. Not even on Twttr.
Maybe Bezos is not brave enough.

It is going to sign for Doge if the Amazon accept doge as the payment method. I think the price of doge will start increasing the market and many people will start buying doge coins in the market.

Ohh yes, does anyone really thinks change.org is that effective? If yes then they are living in  a cocoon. There are certain scenarios where change.org might be helpful, but not every. Amazon is a profit oriented company like others company. Why they will bother about the dogecoin or other crypto. Amazon or any other companies who are operating on global level would be careful on NOT to send any wrong signal. Because in some countries crypto has not good perception. But if these companies like amazon starts to accept the crypto then that would be really nice change and will trigger positive vibe.

To some extent this petition looks like an attempt to garner some publicity to the dogecoin and get some pumping as well.

Doge is becoming a fighter for freedom. And it would rise a lot. But I think a international company like Amazon won't accept just a single coin but will accept many different coins at once! And Doge will be one of them because it has a prospering community.

Woah sir. this is just a petition and theres no official statement from amazon about this so hold your horses. petitions are not always useful even if they gathered lots of

signatures, it doesn't give an assurance of good result so in case you're buying for a long term or waiting for the price to pump, you might wanna reconsider your decisions

as i doubt that this petition will cause a pump.

Why would Amazon accept DOGE before they opt to accept the major cryptos like BTC, ETH and LTC? As much as I admire DOGE, it just doesn't make sense. Think of it from Amazon's perspective. They want to maximise profit/sales. The BTC ecosystem is much bigger and there'd be attracting a larger user base with BTC over DOGE.
Hopefully they choose to accept all major cryptos, including DOGE too.   

It seems to me that this is another fake. I read on the forum a message stating that Amazon will accept payment in bitcoins. This did not happen. Someone writes these fakes for statistics or to warm up the demand for bitcoin. You will not succeed because users of bitcoin are resistant to fakie. Every day someone is posting and if you respond at all you can go crazy. Easier not to pay attention to them.

This is a good start. I believe that this currency will be widely used someday, I hope the goal on amazon would be successful. I signed and I also shared the link to the petition.

Sadly, it won't be. I wish it would, but currently their stance is clear. They don't want to accept BTC, which is the most popular cryptocurrency and has payments integrated with processors that do everything for you. All you have to do as a company is link your clients to these processors and you're all set. If they don't want that it's clear they find cryptos not worth the risk. Doge is sad :(

I am not negative about this but if there is a cryptocurrency that needs to be first accepted in amazon as a payment method is Bitcoin as it is the popular and the father of all cryptocurrencies in the digital world, but I am hoping also that Dogecoin can pass through this petition because it is true that its price as of now is much more stable and the transaction fees of it is more cheaper than Bitcoin. If this go through I hope amazon will decide that other cryptocurrencies will follow soon.

It's straight up ridiculous to even think Amazon would accept dogecoin as a payment method. I mean, Amazon is up till now not showing interest of adding any kind of crypto to their payment list. So why in the world would they add dogecoin if they aren't keen on adding bitcoin yet. A petition won't help that.

It is really hard for me to imagine for Amazon to accept dogecoin as a mode of payment,they being a very big store and the volatility the crypto currency market has,they are bound to loose big if they are to accept bitcoin or any other coin when the market crashes,so i can understand why they are not taking a concrete stand about it yet,but sure they could built a better front end solution for the problem and start accepting crypto currencies with the resources they have.

It would be, but it won't happen. Withe that doge update that made it basically worthless this coin has 0 chances of becoming accepted by any huge merchant.
It used to be worth like 5 times more in the past, even more than that at its peak. If Amazon doesn't want to accept Bitcoin it won't be interested in Dogecoin for sure.

I'm sure different communities will try and petition for big stores to accept them as that would certainly pump the price and give everyone holding a chance to profit.

Lately i have heared about Litecoin payment petition to Zalando probably. Dogecoin is fast learning so its step is reasoned approach.
I dont think so that amazon will accept dogecoin payment option so far, but hopefully any crypto coin will decide to accept in  further future.

I dunno why Dogecoin is being pushed, especially since that entire currency is constantly losing value since it has infinite inflation and it only worth money by the thousands of tokens. This seems to be the main way that the bag holders are going to try and recover any losses they may have had; they're going to try and inflate the demand for DOGE since it has no other value.

I do have to admit, though, that sponsoring that one NASCAR driver was a pretty cool thing they did, it's a shame nothing interesting has happened since then.

I think dogecoin is not the best option for amazon, the most reasonable coin will be bitcoin, bitcoin got more users and better popularity, but seems like amazon is not ready for bitcoin yet
I love to see any crypto currency to be integrated with amazon, it will be great for crypto currrencies users to see more big company interested in crypto currencies

Isn't going to end up doing anything, if Amazon isn't going to accept Bitcoin they're never going to accept some shitcoin like Dogecoin. This is one of the worthless coins that was only hyped due to it's name, and the memes behind it.

Don't sign this petition, if we want communities and companies and the real world to take us seriously. Us in the cryptocurrency community are going to have to only make serious requests of these companies and use the time we have in the publics eye to our advantage. People aren't going to take us seriously if we do this--

I think they will not accept it, even if it will take a million votes or petitions. Dogecoin was made for pure fun and entertainment, they could use that as a way of venture in cryptocurrency like dogecoin. Consumers could use dogecoin on their fun-themed items, and they could use that opportunity to sell dogecoin to the customer. But as of now, i don't think they will do that just because someone petitioned for it.

A petition to the best of my knowledge does not mean acceptance rather its an appeal which can either be accepted or rejected by the person who its being directed to and in this case Amazon. I don't see any big deal here and at the same time the acceptance of Doge coin as a currency when even bitcoin itself has not been given audience not to talk of consideration despite the popularity its has garnered over the years.

Its not the most important point if a petition will be accepted.
Much more important is to do this. Because its just the beginning.

A very useless method do according to me. I dont understand why people are so excited about making crypto the mode of payments in e-commerce sites. Sure it will help the economy but lets face it - it will never happen unless Amazon or so officially do something to accept it. These petitions even if they manage to reach Amazon they will never think about it.

Dont you think how it will affect the company - Amazon accepting bitcoin/dogecoin is like they are accepting black money - even if that is actually false but to most people bitcoin & altcoins=black money/money for the hackers and ransomware.

Do you really think this person is the first one to give a petition to amazon to accept cryptocurrency? Do you think they are going to adopt some crypto which is used by not even 1% of whole population just following a petition signed by a few hundreds of people? Common grow up a bit into the practical world. Not everyone until now is mad behind crypto like we people are.
