When you buy something on eBay or Amazon, you pay the seller, he ships the product and upload a tracking number.
If you haven't received the item, you can call eBay or Amazon and, basically, what happens is that if they have a tracking number that shows that the item has been delivered, then it is ok, otherwise eBay or Amazon reverses the transaction and you get your money back.
Is that possible with bitcoin? What if I buy a boat online for 2 bitcoins and I never receive it? Is bitcoin able to solve this problem?

Thanks

It's not possible if you use bitcoin directly peer to peer but there are payment processors such as BitPay that will help protect against this.

https://bitpay.com/

Basically they're just like Paypal for bitcoin.

Bitcoin itself cannot solve the problem because it's irreversible but services like Amazon and Ebay can hold the buyer's Bitcoins before giving them to the seller until you receive the item.
That's basically them being an escrow/middleman.
This of course will most likely inconvenience the sellers and they may choose not to accept Bitcoin for that reason as they would get their money faster with FIAT.

that's a very good question, if I think it's really very good if it really works honestly and does not harm the consumer, but maybe it could be your return of bitcoin in return dollar currency if bitcoin value increases price.

If scammers want to scam you on a platform like Ebay they have plenty of options even if the item is delivered.  But let me first tell you you cannot actually accept bitcoin as a payment option on ebay, you also cannot accept cash through the post either (thats the UK rule last time i checked anyway).  You can as a seller mark payment received for a product, this is an option ebay have and ebay wont know how you've been paid. So... lets assume you buy an item from an ebay seller, you contact them and ask to pay in bitcoin, they say OK and mark payment received after you have paid to their address. If they then dont get the item sent to you or its lost in the post/defective im assuming ebay will compensate you in fiat because it falls into the bracket of ebay buyer protection if you have had to contact ebay to step in.  A refund direct from the seller direct to buyer is a different thing, they would have to send you the bitcoin back else you get ebay to step in.  

Im assuming after going through this 1.) ebay would warn you not to pay in bitcoin again and 2.) ebay would warn seller not to accept bitcoin again.  But yeah in theory you could accept bitcoin for a trade sure. I have actually accepted cash in the post before for an online sale (in ebay's eyes its same as a bitcoin payment) and everything went smooth.

You can shop at Overstock with Bitcoin.  They're a reputable retailer.

They're also having an ICO where they expect to raise $500 million:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2324406

yes we can here in philippines we have wallet with exchanger called coins.ph and its have card you can use it in shopping but you need first to verified it,i think if we have in our country im sure in other country also try to search in your own country im sure there's a lot but you need to study it first if its legit

Bitcoin is deliberately intended to be a non-reversible payment system.  In fact, satoshi clarifies their position on this in the whitepaper:

So Bitcoin itself is deliberately not intended to do this, both to decrease transaction costs by removing the cost of mediation, and to prevent the common possibility of fraud.  It's a fundamental part of a decentralised system.

However, some payment gateways and escrow systems are used (including BitPay) to help you handle this if you decide to.  The good thing is that at no point are you forced to use a reversible payment, whereas PayPal and banking systems are incapable of completely non-reversible payments.
 

That would be a major enhancement. I think it will come to that soon. We will be expecting a lot of changes everyday on its uses and facilities. Online shopping is so in today. Bitcoin is the most popular digital currency so definitely it will be use in online shopping payments.

Exactly yes in some highly developed countries bitcoin work on online shoppings. You can easily buy in a fast and easy transaction without any hassle free if you have an internet connection using a per to per system. This is the best payment that ever wanted in my country soon as the government in my country accept bitcoin.

Betwwen many other things, this is why bitcoin has appeared on the market, to prevent the reversal of the transactions. I am a scientist and although I do not understand many of the technical aspects of the bitcoin network, I know suffieicnt Mathematics to read the original article of Satoshi that made the bitcoin possible.
This article is not complicated, and between other things it says that it was necessary a new currency to prevent the reversals of the transactions.

Exactly why I believe Bitcoin is going to be used all over in online stores because it protects the seller from chargebacks too. I think too many sites out there like ebay protect the buyer more than the seller.

Bitcoin does work for online shopping yes. Expedia accepts BTC, Overstock, and there is even this site called Purse.io that allows you to buy things on Amazon at a discounted price with BTC.

Some online shopping are accept bitcoin as payment to the item you buy. If i'm not mistaken one article released that amazon now is accepting bitcoin and they considered bitcoin as mode of payment. But some online shopping are still not open in accepting bitcoin as mode of payment.

but to solve problem?! Bitcoin cannot address problem to undelivered item you ordered from the supplier it is your part resolve it and ensure the security of your item ordered.

There will need to be more work done in escrow for bitcoin to become a dominant force because even with chargeback facility of paypal and banks there are still occasionally low selling standards on ebay with some sellers. Chargebacks are the best thing to keep ebay a semi legit trading place right now.

The only solution is credibility of the seller. If seller is credible, you can go first with Bitcoin.
There are services like Purse.io. They let you buy stuff for Bitcoin on Amazon. In this way, you can easily buy whatever you want and have no risk of being scammed as Purse is reputable company.

that's possible.. during the seller accept bitcoin as a payment methode and the seller have a good reputation they can refund your bitcoin when you can't receive the item.. don't worry

I've used bitpay several times in the past and have never had a problem you have to pay a fee to them though so paying them a fee aswell as paying the transaction fee can be a little bit of a pain other than that a real solid company so far.

Just make sure that you've prevent any bad things that cause by bitcoin transaction.

For example : I'm ever purchase a watch from online shop that accept bitcoin. I sent first and I must wait about 1 month !
Well it's also depend whenever the seller is trustable or not

The answer is yes bitcoin is now a days used for each and every thing in life. As we know that it is very famous that’s why big shopping centers in the Asia and Europe are accepting bitcoin for shopping and because of that they reserve good amount of bitcoin. In the future the owners of these shopping centers are good traders of this currency.

As an online shopper, I haven't encountered an online store that accepts bitcoin as a mode of payment. As far as I know, online few market around the world that accepts this as a currency. But still, if you want to shop online with no hassle, there are some wallets that can be used to convert your bitcoin into it's value in cash and use it as a payment for online stores.

First, in online shopping they only sell things that have in size. So in short words, they only sell small things. The one that you say is impossible. Also as an online shopper i think bitcoin is really fit to these job in the online shopping it can used to buy foods like pizza cars to not be hassle and etc.

I have bought tons of stuff online and I don’t have encountered anything that allows me to pay in bitcoin yet. However just like in the restaurant it would be a win if we are able to integrate cryptocurrencies on this and with this in mind the problems is just of the price and its unpredictability

Yes now bitcoin is using for many transaction just like online shopping. Big shopping malls allowed bitcoin cash as well as bitcoin ATM card facility in malls therefore it is good sign for us it’s mean that bitcoin acceptance is increasing day by day.

Well it should. It was designed for online transactions after all. The rules simply have to be a little different. You can't ship your item until your transaction has gotten a few confirmations. As for consumer protection in the way of payment reversals, you would probably have to rely on third party services such as Bitpay.

The way I see it, Bitcoin has to be more than viable for online transactions. We know it can't compete with fiat on point of sale transactions, so it should at least rule the online domain.

Well, it the same this as eBay and Amazon, Bitcoin is just a payment option, Like for example, eBay or Amazon adopt bitcoin as there payment option, they will assure that the item will be back to you but if it doesn't,  Amazon/eBay will process your money back and not the bitcoin system itself.

This isn't water tight because 1.) Credibility of a seller can only work over a certain period of time. So new sellers have a barrier to entry which is not great for the online economy. 2.)It works better for low value items only. So something that is $10 $20 etc a seller will likely deliver all the time because of risk/reward ratio. If you have a seller who does high value items they can build up their rep to pull off one big scam. 

I haven't used bitcoin on Ebay or Amazon, but I tried it on Steam. I bought myself a game and then later tried to issue a refund. When Steam asked me how I wanted to recieve the refund, I only had one option. Normally I would get the money back to my Visa card, but I got it in my Steam wallet. It stated on the website that refunds to Bitcoin wallets would come soon, but knowing Valve I doubt that's on their priority list.

It's irreversible but they can make the system where the site hold the money first until the item arrive, after that thr buyer confirms it and they will forward the payment to the seller, incase the buyer doesn't receive the item, they can send the money back. It can be done but it needs time until amazon and ebay accept it as payment option.

I think that is perfectly reasonable.  This way we only have 1 middle man of ebay/amazon and not 2 with the bank taking their cut for providing no value the transaction.  Obviously if open bazaar takes over online shopping then great but last time i checked they still need escrow in the trade.

Absolutely yes. Now there are stores that accept cryptocurrency. In addition, projects are being developed that make equipment for accepting payments, debit cards.

Yes you can do it  in some specific  country.  you can buy products useing bitcoin.  not in online shop.
Bitcoin isn't in mainstream. when it will come in mainstream you will do it.

Bitcoin doesn't work with direct transactions, the privacy of the buyer is exploited at that process, if an online store would provide or obey the process of bitcoin transactions, which uses blocks, then it would be a perfect store.

Yes, it definitely does. Here in my country we have an online shop where they accept bitcoin. Although, the only problem to this online shop is the products are limited, mostly clothing. So, what more if most of the shops accept bitcoin. That would be really convenient.

Yep bitcoin can be used for payment options for online shopping although still there are no many online shopping that accept the bitcoin, but sometimes long or short time they will addopt the bitcoin on their online shopping, just couples online shops that addopted the bitcoin for example we can pay using the bitcoin on https://purse.io/ and getting goods from the Amazon, also we will get the discount too on there.

If you're wondering where to start, look no further than the following top websites that are now accepting Bitcoin as payment for their goods and services. By the way, more and more brick-and-mortar sites are accepting Bitcoin, too. Fly into Denver and you can even pay for your parking with Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency is not just for the unsavory criminal any more.

1.Overstock.com - To use bitcoin on Overstock.com, at checkout simply select the "Pay with bitcoin" option to complete your purchase.

2.Expedia - Like Overstock.com, Expedia teamed up with Coinbase to implement the new payment option. Bitcoin payment is only accepted for hotel bookings at the moment, but may be expanded to include payments for flights, activities and more.

3.eGifter - eGifter is a popular gift card site and mobile app that lets users buy gift cards for all sorts of places, including Amazon, JCPenny, Sephora, Home Depot, Kohl's and more. eGifter uses Coinbase as their bitcoin partner.


Therefore, the answer is yes you can use bitcoin for OL shopping. There are so much more website or stores that accepts bitcoin payment. Hope my answer helped you.

It actually depends on the where you make your purchases from, if you buy from a person directly and used paypal, then you might have been ripped off. But if you bought it from like say Amazon, you are very much entitled to a refund if your items doesn't arrive.

Thanks, everyone for your opinions :)

Actually bitcoin has been involved in online business for a long time. It is possible to use bitcoin for online purchases but not common. Only some bitcoin stores accept bitcoin payments. I hope next time online shopping with bitcoin becomes more popular

for the responses I get is there is also true bitcoin can be for online shopping ...

because the bitcoin system now uses online transactions in various digital currencies ...

It's possible if the seller has a very fair policy, my advice you just need to be careful to do online shopping, because not all online sellers can be trusted, search really reliable and highly recommended, then you do not have to worry about money and goods you ordered.

In regard with using ebay or Amazon to buy stuff the buyer is protected with ebays buyer protection and in some cases extends to the seller but this kind of system cant work with bitcoin because transactions once made are final unless the recipient chooses to send back the funds which would be inefficient to make this work...the closest system. We have is the use of escrow.

No, that is not possible. Bitcoin transactions are irreversible, so if you pay the seller directly then there is nothing you can do if he decide to scam you. I think it's easy to solve this though. First the site that is providing the service could act as an escrow and hold your payment, until the item is delivered. This way you would be protected. There could also be a trust system, like this forum has, and you could rate sellers. This way they would have to work for their reputation, and they wouldn't risk it if they wanted to succeed in their business.

I have no idea how overstock deals with this, or openbazaar but I really think a combination of these two options would solve that problem.

Yes you can buy online things through bitcoin with fast transition and also you can use it like this also in any shop or anywhere I personally buy a lot of things online and they all accept it so I don’t know may be in some countries it don’t work but here in my country it work easily even I can pay all my bills online hope it will start work also in other countries.

Of course, already many small and large merchants accept bitcoin. Just waiting for time until all merchants receive bitcoin, at least half of it.

NO. Bitcoin doesn't work there but instead you can process bitcoin into cash designated to your currency where do country you belong. You cannot use bitcoin instantly when you earned it because it not yet notice by the main market we have. Bitcoin is still in a process to be known for is's usage.  But maybe someday bitcoin is the universal currency and the cashless society will be there, No corruption and NO counterfeiting.

I think Bitcoin can also make us as a means of payment in the online shop,

for example there is a shirt for $ 1000 then Bitcoin in the output must be for $ 1000,

although the price of Bitcoin down and up, which changed only the amount of Bitcoin in the output not the price of the shirt..

and the online shop should keep updating Bitcoin / dollar price..

it depend, where you buy it? ebay or amazon too?
if seller have great popularity like two above you can get back your bitcoin. because the packet you bought not delivered.
but if you buy from strange store or people, your coin cant back to you. it like scam. but i dont know in country that accepted bitcoin as payment.

Yes i already tried one i buy iphone from purse.io but its prtner with amazon because the shippers are from amazon and they are goos when they shipped they always update you till you will receive your item and yes bitcoins really worth

There's an even better solution, which I enjoy using now. If you've traded in crypto marketplaces, you might be familiar with it: escrow! I only sell my Bitcoin with Localbitcoins and Bisq, which have inbuilt escrow releases. Even dark markets used them. I know people have mentioned them earlier, but here's a few places you can find them:

1. This forum. There are several professional escrowers in Services section. Contact them for their services, they charge between 1 to 5% of the fee, but that's probably far bigger savings than what you'll end up paying for Amazon's administration fees on reversals, for example.
2. Coinpayments.net is an example of a professional service that'll set up an escrow payment for you. They even have ICOs using them now to escrow investor funds. They'll verify you've received your goods, and release payment to the seller.

Not perfect, but that to me is a better solution than what's traditionally available. If you've ever had to fight for your money in a dispute over some seller not delivering... you'd understand it's a huge waste of time (not to mention you get back your money minus "admin fees").

It would be hard for bitcoin to be used the same way as PayPal as there is no protection when making purchases. It would be ok with a reputable company but there will be a risk when buying from unknown sellers.

Presently Bitcoin does not work for online shooping. But in future you can shop online with paying Bitcoin directly.

I tried bitpay to shop online few times. not sure if you like them or not.

As one forum member have already suggested, you can use BitPay (http://"https://bitpay.com/") for issues like these. But BitPay might not be the best option for you out there. Other BitPay alternatives you might want to consider are Adyen, BlueSnap, and Stripe. You can read a comparison of their services here (http://"https://alternatives.financesonline.com/p/bitpay/"), along with other alternatives to the three aforementioned services.

I believe he was looking for advice to purchase from online big retailers, at this point your best bet would be exchanging BTC for currency on any wallet that can be used to purchase using a Credit Card such as Neteller or Skrill, however bear in mind these are designed for gambling and you can't use funds deposited via BTC to make purchases right off the bat, you might want to exchange BTC at a lower rate for money that can be used in online stores.

Also getting Amazon gift cards is a viable option

If ebay or amazon are going to accept bitcoin as payment method it is logically that they are not going to make you pay the seller directly to his wallet since the transaction is irreversible. They have to implement a system so when you buy a product the funds are kept in their wallet(ebay or amazon) and when you received the product the fund are distributed to the sellers wallet.This is going to be a disadvantage for most of the sellers.It is a complicated thing and it takes more time than Paypal, plus that the fees are differene every hour. I dont think ebay or amazon are going to add bitcoin as a payment method soon because it takes a lot of time to develop a system that works.

I see some online shop accept bitcoin for payment but I think is not worth using bitcoin for transaction if buy with small amount

Agreed. Transaction fees will make Bitcoin not suitable to buy small items. I think shops could offer a discount if people pay with Bitcoin, in order to cover high transaction fees...

Buyers protection serves just one party -> the seller in a way is always exposed to the risks of malicious entities charging back on them. Bitcoin solves that problem nicely. Everything you receive in Bitcoin as seller, is fully yours (assuming you don't make use of a third party service). But then again, the buyers will then complain about the lack of protection on their side with Bitcoin. I am quite sure that there are some solutions that you can implement to suit all parties involved, but you then have to accept that everything you do will happen mostly in a centralized environment. I rather just stick to being careful when it comes to where I spend my coins, which helps a lot. ;)

Of course it's useful. Using Bitcoin as an online shopping payment makes it easier for users to buy things without having to go out to bank for transfers the money. It would be great if the big online shopping like amazon and others receive Bitcoin as their payment.

Actually this could be a good way and strategy for online shops. I see most of the online stores selling stuffs which some are cheap while some are expensive but you'll get a free delivery once you spend a certain amount so it would be a good idea to partner it with bitcoin. You can save some bitcoin fees and you'll get a free delivery services if you spend a high amount things on that certain store. So most of the people on that store will only spend high value things to get the free delivery and a worth it fee.

True! My cousin also tried this overstocked and it worked well, we also have in our locality a third party bitcoin wallet where they offer also online shopping using bitcoin as payment.. I suggest the OP to try to search also on your localities because you might have one in there! :)

As of now, the feature is not available to pay using Bitcoins for the goods or services purchased online through most of the leading e-commerce websites. However, there are some dedicated Bitcoin invoice management companies which allow merchants to not only accept the payment in Bitcoin but also to manage the invoice for the cryptocurrency transactions and this solution is really working on the online merchants who are using it. It will not take more than 5 years for the huge players like Amazon, eBay etc to accept cryptocurrencies as a payment option on their platforms.

why not, I'm surely bitcoin can dominate the market of e commerce and in the future bitcoin as the way of payment for transaction in online shooping. bitcoin is simple and easy like other payment depending on the use there is a positive or negative

I guess its yes, bitcoin work for online shopping. I read here in forum says that bitcoin were now used in online transactions like shopping, or even gambling, drugs. So I think maybe it can be true because bitcoin were only operated in online world, we could only interfere in bitcoin by internet connections. So does bitcoin work for online shopping? My answer is yes and it is already used today.

Maybe with Bitcoin online shopping can be used, and very important maybe from bitcoin online shopping will be used, so all transactions will be able to use bitcoin, hopefully this can happen in my country. and not only Amazone can use bitcoin.

Bitcoin do work for online shopping. A lot of online shopping websites uses bitcoin as payment but it can be a scam. We buyers should be aware and careful for us to be safe. But for me, I think it is better to buy things with cash not on online shopping websites because it is safer.

Yes, Bitcoin now works in many online shop. People can easily buy anything from online. Here I give a link where have a list of online shops who are accepting Bitcoin.
https://www.shopify.com/blog/10480345-75-places-to-spend-your-bitcoins

For now it works for only few online shopping. People are Stoll skeptical about using it but as the word about bitcoin spreads, more people will learn to appreciate and use it.

Depends on the transaction and the dealer or online shopping website where you buy the boat. The rules and regulations of some online shopping website who accepts bitcoin as payment are the same with ebay andd amazon. They can send you back your bitcoin if you did not recieved the item you bought. Really depends on the type of the transaction.

It does! A lot of stores in my country use it. I also use BTC for shopping sometimes, mostly for Steam.

Bitcoin works for online shopping and its easy to use for payment but for now not all online platforms accept it. I believe with time it will be accepted globally.

In some countries, bitcoin can be used in online shopping or any online transactions for that matter. Though not all countries have this kind of privilege but i am hoping it will soon spread and more and more countries get to accept bitcoin.

If bitcoin is being used for payment it is not reversable, once it's sent there is no way to get it back unless the receiver is honest and wishes to send it back to you.

Not on a big scale yet . But with time in future cryptocurrency and bitcoins will be valueable for online shopping . All type of cryptocurrency will work for online shopping . Even it will eliminate the usage of paper money in future .

Bitcoin works for online shopping, instead od using reverse transactions with bitcoins you should use escrow. Seller will not receive your bitcoins until you confirm that you received what you bought.
People try to present bitcoin in bad light, but all the bad things that happen comes from other currencies. Someone already used same scam and now they are doing the same with crypto currencies. Check with whom you making the deal, use escrow, if you had good experience wrote something nice about that person for their reputation, same case if it's something bad. People should know with who they need to deal with.

it is supposed to be work like that, a peer-to-peer online payment system and this is how Mr. Nakamoto envisioned about bitcoin to be accepted widely for e-commerce.but here is the catch, it can't accomodate as fast as visa transactions that's why it was not fully adopted.as for the mean time there are a lot of third party payment system that process your bitcoin to pay for online shop but it is quite inconvenient for both parties.

Nope not possible once the transaction is made in bitcoin that would completely be irreversible when it comes to peer to peer transactions or if amazon or ebay has a system that will pay you yor money if the item hasn't been delivered it will benefit both. You also use other payment processor to act an escrow before giving it to the seller when the item has not yet been delivered.

As far as I know bitcoi  can already be used for online shoppings. Because there online shops across some countries that are now accepting bitcoin as a payment for such shoppings. We can all look forward that more and mote shops will accept bitcoin. That not only for clothes. But as well as every single thing.

What kind of silly ass question is this?


Bitcoin only exists online. If not for online payments, there would be no need for bitcoin. this is so many 1s and 0s. with no real world utility besides being a payment medium. what good is bitcoin for anything else other than online shopping?

and im purposefully conflating selling bitcoin wfor fiat with online shopping. but if you look at it, is ther really a difference if the fiat is spent on the same products? this is coming from a guy that lives on crypto, and hasnt had significant fiat in a few years ;)


bitcoin. pretty fucking cool. but not a complete solution for a cashless society ;)

alright, using paypal for bitcoin. i think paypal is the payment for bitcoin. if you have a paypal you can do everything with your bitcoin.

bitcoin is not only exists online but also it can be used now offline , most countries these days are already legalizing it as payment substitute to fiats.


bitcoin has many uses both online and offline not only for payment purpose but also for trading, selling, investing, mining, etc. bitcoin can do many thing  and  good for anything not only in online shopping.


yeah bitcoin is pretty cool and soon it will replace the fiat and we will become a cashless society.

i hope that in the future we will see next generation of online shopping services which won't have any problems with cryptocurrency.

Well, if the transaction has been made, we all know that it will not be undone anymore unlike bank payments or other forms of fiat payments. But if you are dealing with a legitimate seller and you have not come into an agreement that would be beneficial to the two of you, then perhaps you will decide together that he will return your bitcoins. The point here is that you should be careful of the wallet and the owner of the wallet. Because there is no such thing as second chance once a mistake has been committed.

I think they do.

 some payment gateways and escrow systems are used to help you handle this. dont waste ur btc for payments. save btc

If you make direct transactions with FIAT currency or Bitcoin, your chance to be cheated is the same.
As an example :
- You send $ 2000 to Albert for a car, but Albert runs away with your money and never sent a car to you.
- You send 1 Bitcoin to Rony for a car, unfortunately Rony just like Albert, he runs away with your bitcoin.

So in this case a third party (like Bitpay, maybe) will be able to guarantee that you will not lose money for nothing.

Yes bitcoin will surely can adopt the online shopping market and you should not worry about that kind of transaction because if ever you don't receive the item I'm sure they will give back your payment but i think this system must first use by those well known site like amazon because as we all know there are lots of illegal site offering on-line shopping but will only take your money without the item.

You can do online shop at Amazon and eBay through Bitcoin
When you pay them in Bitcoin they are like middleman they hold the Bitcoin till the product is not delivered to you.
This system is know as escrow or middleman system. And I hope that the future banks and online and even the will not have any problem with crypto currency.

If you buy something from an individual seller using bitcoin, i am not sure you get your money back because if individuals scam you, you can't complaint due to anonymity of cryptocurrency.
However if you shop from a website like ebay, amazon using bitcoin and never receive your product, you can raise a complaint against company by showing them purchase id.
A trusted company never cheats with their client.

You can shop online, steam and Amazon are now supported, and can be paid offline in Japan and South Korea.
 :D

bitcoin is specifically suitable for transactions because the system is very secure, fast and low cost, now many online shopping sites that accept bitcoin so as to facilitate our transactions.

for now many people use bitcoin as payment in online shopping. because literally bitcoin is a virtual currency that can be used online.
you will find many online stores that accept payments using bitcoin

Bitcoin is termed to be online money in several articles due to the virtual usability without a physical state. Even now majority of the bitcoin usage is on online stores. Around the globe very few limited number of physical stores operate accepting bitcoin. This will increase as shopping Giants are with plans of accepting bitcoin as payment.

It is pretty much hard to get back the money.
But there is new blockchain e commerce site called Stuffgogo who has just finished the ICO and working on their products.
I think blockchain e commerce site is on the rising and we will get very good service from them.

A sh*t ton of websites accept Bitcoin already, only a matter of time more websites start usign it.

Bitcoin was designed to make transactions irreversible. It has many advantages but for some people it's the main reason why they don't want to switch to Bitcoin. There are few companies which accept Bitcoin from you and pay with fiat to merchant. So far, I have only used bitpay.com. It's quite convenient and works without any problem. However, I try not to spend my BTC.

Now Amazon, Ebay online shopping have started  accept bitcoin without deliver items. And it's not sure they will give you your money back or not.
As bitcoin is a online currency so online shopping site should accept it without delay.Hope in future it would be easy to shopping with bitcoin.

i think it is a good idea, maybe not today, but in the future, as long btc will develop a system that will be safe for the buyer and the trading firm, who knows, maybe they are working on it right now. let us hope for the best, now that btc is getting famous nowadays.

Its still impossible that we could have a cashless society.Fiat must be still in because its the basis of crypto currency.How can we make profit if fiat will be gone? So it's still impossible without fiat.And yes bitcoin is really working for online shopping and it's happening right now.

bitcoin is a good online shopping now a day here well be creating shopping now a day by bitcoin because its also a currency but it is a online currency to get shopping by it

bitcoin is work only in the online shopping and its not exist in the real word bitcoin cannot solve the problem in that scenario like you said because its only for online. its not an fiat money so they cant turn it back and i think that's your fault because why do you buy a 2 boat in the online shopping ? yes you can guarantee that you're item will be delivered to you but what if the hackers and the scammers will intervense your item ? so its your fault you know that the risk is always near you when you talk about money

Why not. Theare a lot of websites where you pay in btc. Moreover there is a special project which provide payment in crypto https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2254760.new#new

in my country is also able to pay with btc...in my friend's computer shop is available btc paying...and he is just one small store bussines...but a good one

That is a disadvantage of using bitcoin. As we don't have any chance to bring back our money just in a single mistake. I don't discourage people to do not used bitcoin, actually this is an information that might happen in any transaction. But this is not usually happen, in fact using bitcoin could be more effecient if we used it wisely and  a secured transaction.

In more places bitcoin is use for online shopping only, but still there are some places where bitcoin is also use in offline shops also. For example in my area there is one Shopping Mall who are accepting bitcoin for shopping. Similarly in  Brazil there are so many other shops who are also accepting bitcoin, similarly in Japan I am sure that there will also be so many shops who will be accepting bitcoin, because they have already accepted bitcoin as legal currency.

I heard amazon accepting the bitcoins,bitcoin is good option for fast online transaction.bitcoin is safe,in upcoming days all shopping sites may accept the bitcoins.

I am not yet buy in Online Shops but it is happening today that cryptocurrency such as bitcoin can be use as a money to buy in online shops.

I think there are online stores that use Bitcoin as a transaction tool. Not only online businesses that use Bitcoin as payment, but I think in various online stores in the Deep Web, some use Bitcoin. That's because people feel, by using Bitcoin they become safe and untraceable. And also there is no limit as there is on Paypal or bank. For example there are limits such as the transferred limit, or if in the bank .. people who do large transactions will be suspected and may be questioned.

I actually works best in online shopping in my opinion since I'm not actually a fan of debit and credit cards and I find the processing to much of a hassle so I really appreciate how fast and user friendly bitcoin is. I actually tried even using it to buy ingame local credits and shop items from other people seamlessly with just internet and phone would do. I find it more secure also that actually sending and storing real money.

Sure it does. There are plenty of websites accepting bitcoin. Search on google.

Yes you can use bitcoin for anywhere, for all of your online shopping. But be careful in some online shop because some of them is fraud. You can also use it in transferring money without third person to oversee it.

It cannot be undone since bitcoin I think is irreversible.  If you paid the item using bitcoin in online transaction and it was delivered but your item that has been purchased online was not, then it is the company or the seller that you should contact with just like what you said in your first three sentences.  Considering the high price of bitcoin and you bought something to unknown and not familiar online store or shop, then it is a problem as you do not know where to ask for the refund.  Unlike the big store such as eBay and Amazon where they are well known.

Yes I agree you.Many Online payment now accept bitcoin.Even Amazon accept Bitcoin for the Payment of purchased thing.This shows the growth of the Bitcoin .Like a FIAT,bitcoin is now accepted in all the online payment.This shows the stability of Bitcoin in a Market.

yes bro it works and will be

Yes for me bitcoin can work for online shopping because there are so many people who wants to have a bitcoin so you can use your bitcoin for online shopping. Just like what others said even Amazon accept bitcoin so I think other online shop will accept it because why they refuse to it if bitcoin is just a limited? that's my opinion

It's not as problematic as they think, I bet they want to make popular amaxon pay, paypal, not bitcoin. Bitcoin is bad idea for refunding but there is a way to solve it, we need something like bitpay where we will identify documents and get similar wallet of paypal, where major currency will be bitcoin and transactions will be like it's on xapo, with no fees for it's users. In this way, refunding will be comfortable and instant.
And the reason why it's great way is that some shops don't accept interbational cards and I have to request my friend(s) in usa to buy things for me. So bitcoin will be fix of this problem. I can still write so much about it..

Using Bitcoin as an online shopping payment makes it easier for users to buy things without having to go out to bank for transfers the money.

Bitcoin does not create a room for refund of bitcoin. But majorly it is rare for there not to be delivery of your fund  though. Every merchant has a wallet to check the correspondence of transaction if there's any issue.

I heard from my friends that some  websites or online basis marketing use btc as their payment method .  it is really a great way   it is safe and secured.  And it is containing low fees as well .

Bitcoin's USP was quick confirmation times, no / low transaction fees and no chargebacks. That was what made it attractive to merchants. The first two are out of the window now. Thankfully, merchants accepting bitcoins will face no chargebacks.

Bitcoin is not used in online shopping. Simply because it is blockchain 1.0. And its processing speed is too low. We can not buy a cake and wait for confirmation within 3 days. too long

It's kinda hard to buy something with bitcoin. Especially, bitcoin value is so high and we hardly find something that worth one bitcoin.
Also, bitcoin isnot trackable, it'll be hard for the seller or buyer, so seller may choose to avoid uncertain things and decided to use money as payment instead.
And as far as i know, there haven't been online shopping websites that accept bitcoin? Or is there any already?

No. 1. It's too slow. Second it is based on the blockchain 1.0 .3 units of it quite large. 4 prices are quite high. Therefore, bitcoin can not be used in market operations

Yes bitcoin really works for online shopping. You can pay your online payments using bitcoin. yes we can here in philippines we have wallet with exchanger called coins.ph and its have card you can use it in shopping but you need first to verified it,i think if we have in our country im sure in other country also try to search in your own country im sure there's a lot but you need to study it first if its legit. It is really essential to many people.

i also think this is a good way of using bitcoin but i know soon many people will notice how good bitcoin is as a medium of exchange, many online shops will use bitcoin as their mode of payment just like paypal and its a lot better much faster less effort to the part of both parties any where and anytime you can use bitcoin

 yes of course, there are some online shops that accept payments via bitcoin, for example ebay, amazon and some other big online shop, but personally I myself do not use bitcoin to shop there, I used to buy steam wallet using bitcoin, more or less the same

I am surprise to read your post mention that expedia accept bitcoin. I am really happy to know big online booking company accept bitcoin. Its great development.

I'm not sure about using bitcoin for transactions, even if it is online. Yes, bitcoin is manipulated online  but it haven't pass to worldwides perspective about currencies. Though we are not that far from these scenarion since we are commonly using bitcoin for an higher exchange and after what's happening online, so does in online shopping transaction. But for now, we have to get our feet on and let what we are used to on what we want.

I think right now only a few online shops or establishments, in general, accept bitcoin as payment for transactions. Although many companies have been using it as part of their capital investment, there are still many negative ideas about it that stop other companies from totally embracing it. For your "boat" questions, I think big transactions like that would take a long while to be accepted using bitcoin to pay for it because would still be the reliable means of payment for manufacturers or sellers.

Yes its work
you can pay something you buyed on online shop with btc now
which online shop support payment bitcoin are eBay , Spotify stores and many more
you can search it in google for more list online shop which can pay with bitcoin

Because bitcoin transactions are not reversible, that's why we should be careful making online transactions. Even tough they can figured it out that there is accidentally deposited but because of anonymous identity, they can never trace where it came from and doing that is just a waste of time.

Having used of bitcoin through online transactions is very efficient and only spending a little time just to finished a certain transaction. And with this, we can maximize our time in some other works and we are very productive everyday.

U can pay online using bitcoin? Hhhah idont know

I haven't try that in our country. As far as I know, we can only use bitcoin in buying loads, well so far that's what I usually do. We can transfer bitcoin from peee to peer . But most of online sellers in our cpuntry doesn't accept bitcpin for payment, even they knew about it. One time,  I try to use bitcoin for paying the thing I bought on her online, and the policy is payment first. She wants me to go in money services so that she can receive my payment, I suggest her that I'll pay her in bitcoin,  which is on my wallet. tje wallet I am using is endorsed by her, and this wallet is very useful to me upto now. But then again she refused my payment in bitcoin, she keeps on saying that it will be better if I just pay her thru remittances. Ans so I don't have any control woth it, I just follow her to get my order. Maybe they are not that familiar with bitcoin, and so they are still afraid to use it.

agree many merchants who accept bitcoin as there mode of payment required you to pay first so before paying to a merchant make sure that you do your research if it was legitimate or not since many are fraud this days and you can't file a dispute after a transaction.

Yeah this is the good idea because the people are buying the bitcoin and they are getting the profit from the bitcoin, it is very easy to buy all the things from the bitcoin and to get the value of the bitcoin high, now all around the worlds the bitcoin is having the high value and the price to give all the people a real change and the bitcoin is going to be use as the personal shopping purpose as well.

I think that bitcoin has been used a lot to buy thing online by criminals and i think that inn the future not only criminals will use it for shopping but then whole world will also do that because bitcoin is a coin that does not have some that looks after it.

For now, that workaround appears to be in the form of sites like Coinbase, which unfortunately are still nowhere near prepared to take Bitcoin where it needs to go for your local Starbucks to be accepting it at the cashier. Until a more creative solution is agreed upon by the community itself, the challenges of how to reduce the transaction time to the same as what you’d get swiping a debit card will mount as Bitcoin’s userbase continues to grow.

Bitcoin uses internet so on line shopping is very much possible and it is already done by some on line shopping sites. The reliability depends on the integrity of the site or the person you want buy your items from. So I think it is for your own risk if you really want to use your bitcoin to buy online because no one is regulating bitcoin. Everyone using bitcoin can be a victim of a scammer, so it is up to us to check if you are transacting to someone online.

bitcoin works not for online shopping but works in investment management.

not all countries apply this.
only some of my countries that approve bitcoin exist within the country.
like china, they have banned bitcoin entering country, automatic all access concerning bitcoin closed.

Yes there are some countries where bitcoin is a legal for any type of buying and selling in across the country.In these countries, people are using debit card of bitcoin account for also purchasing transaction. There are so many retailers are accepting bitcoin as payment base. After few years every big levels company will accept this type of payment system for future growth.

your question is very good we see first in that country if the country has formalize bitcoin as currency applicable in the country I think it can happen payment system with bitcoin but for now country in my country not yet to do that because the government has not formalize bitcoin as the official currency as a valid payment instrument

yes it does you can you shop online using bitcoins but you only can buy is giftcards for where you want to buy items online and sometime you can buy online games on steam too.

Depends to bussness if avail bitcoins for payment, many of transaction now use bitcoins to make payment and not an online too. In my city use bitcoins to relax some hotels. And swimming also.

I have not yet seen any online shops here in our country that accepts payment via bitcoin. If this happens in our country, shopping will be easy. They must first be knowledgeable about bitcoin. Yes there is a wallet application for bitcoin in our country but only a few is knowledgeable about it. We must first educate the people around us before accepting bitcoin as payments. We must also tell authorities or provide authorities the guidelines that we can say bitcoin is helpful for everyone.

Bitcoin can absolutely work for online shopping, yes. There are many websites that accept BTC like Overstock, Alibaba, etc so you can use them there. However I do not recommend that you use your bitcoins to purchase things online right now. While it may seem very exciting BTC is not in that stage yet where it should be used for storing value for the long term.

Bitcoins doesn't work directly for online shopping.Some time ago the biggest online shopping giant Amazon used to accept btc directly as one of their mode of payment but later they stopped due to some issues like change in the value of btc as the price of the btc doesn't remain the same and it varies from time to time they felt it is not apt for amazon shopping and hence they stopped .But there are several other place in the online market from which you can do online shopping and make payment via btc.

Yes. I bought recently one mobile phone and fly tickets. In future I think more and online shoppings will accept bitcoins.

Bitcoin can work for some online shopping but  i think they will add some fees for it  or higher fees

In some countries which have accepted bitcoin legally allows buying and selling products using bitcoin. Everyone has actually converted from traditional shopping to online shopping. When it starts to buy using bitcoin it will makes another big effect

Yes, there are sites like Overstock, Burgerking Russia, and some other businesses who accept Bitcoin.

It will not take more than 5 years for the huge players like Amazon, eBay etc to accept cryptocurrencies as a payment option on their platforms.

Agree. More and more online stores offer bitcoins as an alternative currency. However, from my point of view, it is harder to regulate the purchases and sales since bitcoins cannot be refunded to a customer the way fiat money can be.

I didn't buy things with bitcoin online,some people telling amazon accepting the bitcoins.bitcoin is good for online shopping.bitcoin transactions are very safe also.in future bitcoin is good for online shopping.

I don't think are lots of online shops which accepts bitcoins as payments, but a very useful thing about this bitcoin is that we use it to pay our bills like electricity bills, debit cards, internet, and even prepaid loads.

Obviously bitcoin can work for online shopping, now bitcoin is so popular. People use bitcoin and they want to include this in whole world. Shopping is one of those. I think some big online shopping market can not support this because bitcoin price always up and down.They don't want those money which change in day by day. But one day bitcoin will work for online shopping.

yes we can solve this simply by providing the locking and unlocking mechanism(escrow) but it would cost some extra fee, but still hey these are cryptos these are volatile no one knows what will happen, all products have the fixed price.

worst case: if the value of the crypto fall down just before receiving the payment, then the seller will loss certain money, but if it is increased the buyer would be happy :)

Yes the person their can just send back the same amount of bitcoin but problem here is that we dont have any such trusted platform which promises you to return your money. Morever such returns would have to be send back which means transaction fees would have to be paid again. So it would be much better if such a platform is made and transactions are done within the chain.

When buying something only first, you need to check that rules and regulations and especially if the website is legit. We all know that sooner amazon and ebay will accept bitcoin as a payment and I think it would be the same as any other online payment or like pay-pal. If you don't receive your package or the product they will refund you on how much it costs. Example, if you buy a bot for 2 BTC  they will refund you your 2 BTC and the value of the 2 BTC doesn't matter because that's how bitcoin works its not stable and your taking the risks of using your bitcoin. You would be just very unlucky if you don't get your product.

I haven't seen any shop online yet that accepts Bitcoin, i only able to buy using Bitcoin if i am going to have a deal with a fellow Bitcoin user. If you guys know wirexapp it is a virtual debit card for Bitcoin and you can exchange that Bitcoin to a Virtual Usd debit card that you can use for shopping online.

Yes bitcoin is working for online shopping but its are in vary few places who accepting bitcoin but as the bitcoin is going famous and getting more and more users from the whole world then the world will start accepting bitcoin for receiving payment in shops etc but it will take some time because its a big task for bitcoin to getting maximum number of bitcoin.

Yes, there are several stores which already accept Bitcoin as a method of payment. Refund, as you stated, works just like any other payment system. If you don't receive the item, you get the refund. Yet I know there are some stores which don't refund if you pay with Bitcoin.

Regarding Amazon or Ebay acceptance, I think Amazon will come first. Maybe ebay will never come. Don't forget ebay owns Paypal as well, so Bitcoin is a direct competitor they are afraid to accept.

Not in all online shopping. But maximum online shopping you can use . I think with in few day you can shopping in online every where by Bitcoin. It's time is crypto currency.  It's more easy for us to buy everything in online if Bitcoin support every where.

Yes it's possible in other way, Like you can use bitpay! Bitpay is a very good service for payment with bircoin. But you can't pay bitcoin directly and bitcoin will never support that.  ;D

Yes bitcoins work for online shopping in many shops and in hotel etc bitcoins is know acceptable and people do online shoping on it but their are some countries in which bitcoins is not acceptable in their shop and i hoped that in future that countries also accept bitcoins because bitcoins have alot of value in future life :D. So bitcoins work for online shopping.

If the items are not sold directly by the website then they are going to escrow the funds for you and besides part of the terms whenever you are going to sell something from their website is that you need to have a particular amount of deposit made to them first.

Exactly. We don't need to ask for that. Bitcoin is mainly used in online world and in online shopping ofcourse. There is no second thought on that. The main market of bitcoin is Online and since the introduction of bitcoins online shopping has increased a lot. A lot more people now intend to do shopping online just because they can pay in bitcoins which is far more easier to use than credit cards payment etc.

Bitcoin cannot be used for online shopping on Amazon/Ebay/Flipkart or many of similar platforms. As these are working as a third party service provider, their accounts are used as the escrow / project account by all individual and product seller. Product seller sells their product through sites and gets the payment through them by the individual receiver.



Using Bitcoin as payment is not possible, as it is not acceptable in all countries/ merchants/ banks. Also Bitcoin accounts are without any personal information about the holder which is a hindrance for online shopping.

I believe that there are websites that works like amazon which accepts bitcoins as a payment but I have not yet tried one and I am looking forward using it to do my purchase in the future. I think in japan, their government is adopting in a way that they are accepting bitcoin as a payment. This means that, maybe bitcoin will be able to do purchase not just in online shops but in local shops too.

Yes, of course. Since BTC creates a completely transparent trading system and also it is known as  quick, easy and safe here in our country, Philippines, companies are using bitcoin as payment option. You can buy coupons for discounts using btc at Metro deal, you can shop at snoe, Mr. Delicious and many others.

It's very possible for bitcoin to be a payment or currency on online shop and it's really suit on bitcoin though. The problem is there is no security on bitcoin, once you get scammed you can get your bitcoin back to you. I'm sure bitcoin will be accepted on online shop in the future.

It should be understood again that Bitcoin is the same as a money. amazon and various online shopping still save Bitcoin that has been transferred by the buyer and this is why it is necessary to explain that all transactions should still be centralized, we can send a number of Bitcoin to Amazon's wallet and it certainly can get a guarantee. this will be different when we directly send Bitcoin to seller, it can happen fraud and it is the same when we send money directly to seller. In theory this looks the same and which distinguishes only its form, Bitcoin is a form of digitizing currency.

Bitcoin was created for the online shopping idea that is why it is called global currency,but Bitcoin was not design to reverse the payment, once you send then it is done, for the security you need to hire escrow or third party to hold your funds until everything settle then you can tell the third party to release the funds

In my opinion, yes bitcoin work for online shopping. I have heard many things that they use bitcoin as a payment. My friend also used bitcoin to pay his bills online and he also orders somethings though online. I never try it, but I use my bitcoin to buy some games into steam.

Bitcoin is now being gradually accepted by some online merchants. But for now, most our private sellers who accepts it as one mode of payment. Hopefully this will work and in the future those big online shops accept this.

COINS in the steam and other websites can online payment, but the website is not a lot of support, personal feel COINS as a third-party payment is of great value, its versatility and portability are not legal tender can be compared.

Everything in this world deals with technology. Since we are in modern generation, bitcoin have lots of users.
To satisfy the continuous demand of the customers and to provide a smooth transaction.
Many companies start to build an online shopping applications or websites, which promotes online currency in any means of transaction as a payment to their purchases.   
With this you can buy something you want easily.

Yes of course. Bitcoin is a digital money where its value is in the form of inflation. Bitcoin is also a money,
but it is more flexible than the real money we are using from day by day. We can use it by purchasing items online and we can encash it.

At present, it is not enough to buy online. But you can through some applications. It will make it easier for you to exchange. I think next time this feature will be improved.

Yes it is workig.Bitcoin is Very good online payment system.But there are many online shop don't accept bitcoin.But some online shops accept bitcoin.Some time I use bitcoin for online payment.

I believed that there is some website out there that accepts bitcoin as online payment. So yes it does work for online shopping although the big barrier that we are facing right now is the high transaction fee that prevent other online shopping to really accept bitcoin. And there are also online shopping that used to accepts bitcoin, but they choose not to because of the high fees and the slow confirmation time. We just hope that in the future we will see more online shops that will accept it eventually. But I believed that just one shopping site, like Amazon that will accept bitcoin, it will grow rapidly as they will set a precedence in the online world.

I can say yes, it's possible. If the ecommerce side ask customer wallet address, they can make refund. You can check ecommerce like newegg.com
they already did it. They can accept bitcoin for payment. More details here: https://promotions.newegg.com/nepro/16-6277/index.html

Buying heavy goods with online shopping sites is what I have not done nor come across, but it will be more better you convert your bitcoin to fiat so as to avoid any issues.
Purse us an online site too that accepts bitcoin for payments.

Yes, because bitcoins are transferable to cash. Me personally,as an online store owner I accept bitcoin as a payment.

For now yes bitcoin work only in online shopping, but i think someday it is not possible to bitcoin to buy and pay in some resturants and some malls, if that place was ligalize to use virtual currency as a payments. Right now just enjoy what only bitcoin can do in online because if use payment in not online many changes has come.

I am not recommending it but try visiting deep web any time. You will find numerous sellers with their various merchandises selling everything for nothing else than bitcoin. As for the real world sites like Amazon and ebay. I still think its quite challenging considering the amount of legalities these countries have to face. They have to pay taxes in their respective countries so it will be hard for them to determine taxes on such purchases.

Basically, transactions done in bitcoin cannot be reversed or refunded
as in the case of Paypal. But what can be done is the website that
accepts bitcoin as a mode of payment can withhold buyer's bitcoins
until a said service or product has been delivered by the seller to the
buyer.

One example of this would be localbitcoins.com

here in my country PH it is ok to buy something over the net with bitcoin, pay bills, buy loads and send money to someone converted to FIAT,
some establishments are also accepting bitcoin now.  bitcoin is really evolving here and many people now are interested bout this!

Yes it is actually a fast transaction and really good feature of bitcoin and giving satisfaction to many users to use it everytime having an transaction with other people.

Yes, it works. A lot of companies, even large, allow their online products to be bought. But with a fluctuating value of btc, it would either help or hurt the company. One example company is the Microsoft. Users can buy content with bitcoin on Xbox and Windows store.

Some are acting as a middleman for this kind of transactions but, for bitcoin it can't solve your problem. It was made for Peer to Peer transactions unless the one who you sent your money can give it back to you if you don't get your item shipped.

Most of the big companies and small ones do accept bitcoin as payment to their site.

Bitcoin can work for online shopping, now bitcoin is so popular. People use bitcoin and they want to include this in whole world. Shopping is one of those. I think some big online shopping market can not support this because bitcoin price always up and down.

Somebody says they already used bitcoin as a mode of payment in online shopping they says it was good and easy way, but then I didn't try it yet because maybe this time I'm afraid to use my investments in some matters which I can also buy by using fiat but then they alreadybprove to me that it was possible so maybe I should try this sometime.

Aside that we can encash or we can divert our coin into fiat to use as a mode of payments some on line shops are allowed bitcoin itself as a mode of payment,so for the question if bitcoin work as a mode of payment in online shopping I am saying yes, and some of our co-campaigners also says that they already made some transactions using bitcoin as a mode of payment.

Yes bitcoin really works for online shopping. Some of the member in this forum already stated that they were able make some transactions like shopping in online gaming and others using bitcoin. We have also this option of converting digital currency into fiat so that we can use the money to pay our bills.

First you need to see where you are shopping really. I mean you yourself stated that in case of amazon or eBay they will solve the problem on their end. Well, in this case what they are actually doing is, they are holding the payment in their account before they can pay to the seller. This way they make it sure that they don’t provide the fraud services. I mean if seller don’t sell the item then simply the money will be returned to you which they are holding for you.


So in case of bitcoin if the service provider is taking the money and holding into their account before sending it to the merchant then obviously you can request the money back from the merchant itself. So that easy logic beyond it how those big merchandise work on money back garuntee.

Of course this is probable and I think it is possible in the near future. Bitcoin is very efficient in its operation and online transactions are more efficient. I hope this will come soon.

So first of retailers like ebay would not accept bitcoin in my opinion unless their company PayPal is going to profit in some way. Now i use sites like paxful to get stuff from like amazon. Other retailers like over stock.com and tigerdirect.com let you buy stuff directly from them. They ship out stuff asap only bad thing is if refund is needed they issue it via fiat in my experience.

I can understand making large purchases with Bitcoin(thousands of dollars range).  I do not see smaller purchases in Bitcoins future.  You would need a third party to handle volatility and reduce the price of transaction fees.  Adding a central authority to the blockchain defeats its main purpose.

But then again Bitcoin is still growing so maybe the community will vote to change its protocol and lower transaction fee and find a way to increase the speed to at least be comparable with credit card charges.

I could notice one company accepting that is Microsoft we can buy content with bitcoin on xbox and windows store.
How ever we have a chance to choose by converting our digital currency bitcoin into fiat we can just simply turn into cash and use our bitcoin.
If we need such acceptance from the retailers to accept bitcoin they even think about some profit from their business dealers then we can expect even us to shop with bitcoin online. But the retailers expectations need to be satisfied from their banks.

There are many cryptocurrency swipecards that are coming out. These will allow you to attach your bitcoin account to the card and shop for merchandise online or in stores. ie. Fintech select

I think there is no problem in applying the tracking number of the package with bitcoin payment included, i dont see any difference between paying for the service with BTC and  regular fiat.
Im almost sure that in the most ways bitcoin is way more comfortable to use for paying for some service or item online, of course if you own any already. All you do is just a transfer that get up in maximum 20 minutes if the fee is correct, and your item can be send or given up online to you. No needs for bank transfers, paypals and stuff like that.

I think any business  and shops that is internet based will work well with bitcoins. It would give their customers additional freedom in their option for mode of payments and at the same time provide a secure and fast way to transfer money. Also they can take advantage of the privacy in using bitcoins to offer their customers a discreet way of shopping.

In future I think so, I mean why not it's a digital asset? However, there's a major issue in that people would need a bitcoin balance, or if not would need to transfer the funds - at the moment the wait and the transaction fee would both be major issues for ecommerce - even the slightest delay in loading a web page can impact conversion and purchase...at the moment, it's maybe a nice add on...but it's nowhere near as effective as FIAT payment methods

Working.
But there is not enough mass.
The reasons for all are known:
1) high volatility
2) a narrow circle of people using crypto currency

It is working very well. There is now a growing number of online stores and other online shopping sites that are accepting Bitcoins. I haven't tried them yet though. The good thing about Bitcoin payment is that each and every transaction is fully transparent and can be seen on the blockchain. The seller as well as the buyer can access the transaction whether it is already confirmed or not. Another good thing is that the transaction is peer to peer, unlike the normal transactions with banks. With Bitcoins, you can easily ask the seller of a Bitcoin back agreement if you do not like the item shipped to you.

Well not all online stores is accepting bitcoin as an payment option but there are a lot of online stores now that is accepting bitcoin as an payment option and there numbers is increasing.

yes there are some online stores receive bitcoin as its payment media. Although not all stores where we shop receive bitcoin as a means of payment of our groceries

It's working, you can even look for interesting goods out there on the goods section of this forum and when you transact just look for someone that's willing to escrow your transaction to the buyer. I did shopped many times for buying digital goods outside the forum and it really feels great to it again from time to time. A peer to peer transaction if there are stores out there that has your interesting desired item, ask them if they accept bitcoin.

but i think bitcoin is not just work or only be used in online shop, because I see there are many physical stores in my countries that receive bitcoin payments directly, so it proves that bitcoin not only can be used in online shop, but can be used for buying things in a physical store,,

If you use pages to be the intermediate throw the shop, i don't think so. Like there is no legal frame to the use of cryptocurrency this kind of transactions are very very delicate, and more in this type of cases. I recommend you to only pay with crypto when these can of situations can be solved throw terms. Meanwhile invest on crypto in reliable projects, is one of the best uses you can give it. Just like propthereum.ip

I think bitcoin cannot be used directly in shopping online you need to convert it first to its current value(dollar or other currency).
there are online shopping sites that accepts payments with digital wallet that has bitcoin exchange like coins.ph

If yes, then the range and price range are also a subject. I think we can get this service very quickly, because Bitcoin is popular digital currency and its value is very demanding, so I think it will be used for online sales in very short period of time. :) :)

no, not at this time online shopping site is not accepting bitcoin but i think time is near for online shopping accept bitcoin 

Well for now paying for things online now with bitcoin hasn't started but I believe the platform will surely be opened soon and it will be well planned to take care of every online payment lapses

First you need to see where you are shopping really. I mean you yourself stated that in case of amazon or eBay they will solve the problem on their end. Well, in this case what they are actually doing is, they are holding the payment in their account before they can pay to the seller. This way they make it sure that they don’t provide the fraud services. I mean if seller don’t sell the item then simply the money will be returned to you which they are holding for you.

I think certain places still accept Bitcoin but haven't done any online shopping recently myself

I dont know i dont yet try it but i heard in someone that thay can use bitcoin in some online transacation but right now it cannot still use in online shopping. But if ever its happen many user of bitcoin will be glad because a lotmof them are mostly buy in online shopping.

Everything in this world deals with technology. Since we are in modern generation, bitcoin have lots of users.
To satisfy the continuous demand of the customers and to provide a smooth transaction.
Many companies start to build an online shopping applications or websites, which promotes online currency in any means of transaction as a payment to their purchases.  
With this you can buy something you want easily.

Bitcoin, an encrypticized currency that only exists on the Internet and is not subjected to anyone. Bitcoin has been predicted to either become the linchpin that completely revolutionizes how the world economy works, or could just lose the Winklevoss Twins a whole lot of their precious Facebook money when it eventually tanks.

Absolutely. Bitcoin is perfect for digital transaction and it's just very clear that it can work for online shopping stores. We are going to see more of it in the future and some already did.

For some I think there are still no major players who accepts bitcoin as a form of payment. However I have heard rumors that in the deepweb bitcoin is the preffered transaction and that there are many things that can be bought there hia bitcoin

yes. i certainly does. you can do online shopping even now! you can do at   www.encrpytopia.co.nz
Have a try. you will enjoy it.

That is not impossible nowadays digital payment is in global market already and it is happening,if eBay and amazon can do it why not bitcoin were already moving to that kind of peer to peer transaction payment.

If the currency trading, then will send COINS to the platform, waiting for you to receive the goods after the platform in pay COINS to the sellers, however, poundage is too expensive, does not fit,

I think if you want to deal with payments using bitcoin, should be more careful because it may be fraudulent or something harmful and no one can help us with these losses, if you want to use bitcoin as payment, better find a trusted place

Yes there are some countries where bitcoin is a legal for any type of buying and selling in across the country.In these countries, people are using debit card of bitcoin account for also purchasing transaction. There are so many retailers are accepting bitcoin as payment base. After few years every big levels company will accept this type of payment system for future growth.

I have not yet seen any online shops here in our country that accepts payment via bitcoin. If this happens in our country, shopping will be easy. They must first be knowledgeable about bitcoin. Yes there is a wallet application for bitcoin in our country but only a few is knowledgeable about it. We must first educate the people around us before accepting bitcoin as payments. We must also tell authorities or provide authorities the guidelines that we can say bitcoin is helpful for everyone.

Bitcoin can absolutely work for online shopping, yes. There are many websites that accept BTC like Overstock, Alibaba, etc so you can use them there. However I do not recommend that you use your bitcoins to purchase things online right now. While it may seem very exciting BTC is not in that stage yet where it should be used for storing value for the long term.

Well it is not that bitcoin doesn't work for online shopping. It doesn't work at all. It is stuck. If you want to sell your assets in bitcoin you have to pay radiculous fee just to move the asset to the exchange.

you can buy things with bitcoin in cryptopia, an there will be an ICO that have a project similiar thing that u want to see

Some site for online shopping are accepting bitcoin but some are also not. Some site for online shopping accepting it because they want to have it because they know that bitcoin can help them to earn more money because there are so many people who are using bitcoin. Some site are not accepting because bitcoin is not legalized worldwide so they think that is it too risky to accept bitcoin.

When it comes to transactions there is no way you can recover you can only do that if you bought it in a company but bitcoin is a peer to peer transactions so you need to be sure that you are sending or making a transaction from a trusted person, or else your transaction is a loss case.

Yes, I agree with you, even in middle east or  Dubai, there are ATM's for bitcoin exchange. You can buy many services online too by paying in BTC.

Last day I read that Amazon accepted Bitcoin as a form of payment. So you can use BTC for online shopping on Amazon. I believe that if Amazon accepts the BTC, sooner or later other e-commerce sites will accept the BTC, and BTC will become more and more popular, becoming the official currency in the near future. And for your questions about the BTC refund when buying any product, I believe the future of BTC technology will allow people to trade with each other more easily, not as secure as the present time.  ;D

Bitcoin was useful for online shopping, but recently the transaction costs are too high. And sites that were supporting BTC payments are removing it...

Indeed, there's only few online shop that accept bitcoin as payment world wide and unfortunately we don't have that kind of shop here in my country so that you should convert it fist into your local currency or international currency whic is us dollar. If bitcoin becomes popular I am sure that someday there will be a online shop that accept bitcoin as payment.

I'm sure countries like Japan have them, but it's not yet present in all markets around the world. I'm pretty positive that sooner or later businesses will adapt to this.

I haven't tried this yet but I'm using bitcoin to buy mobile phone load and sending money to other person. It's very convenient

For me, yes some online shopping site is willing to accept bitcoin as payment. But most of the online site doesn't allow bitcoin as payment because of some reason. But if Amazon and another site accept bitcoin as a payment I’m sure that in the future they will accept it too, especially that bitcoins amount is increasing and the community of it is growing.  :)

Some of the wallets accept bitcoin for online shopping, one of them are coins.ph but this are still on maintenance and they are working to add this feature. I've seen that coins.ph will be added good feature in field of online marketing, like buying a load to them if the load did not receive by the receiver coins.ph will return all of your payment.

I agree with you, buying goods online to trusted sellers is one of the conditions for us to avoid fraud. But it's better to use real money instead of bitcoin.

Hi there berluscoin! Payment processing of eBay and Amazon are only in a form of dollar. Customer with different currency tends to convert it first to dollar before the payment process goes thru. That could be the idea you are looking for, but as far as I know, company that will do or can do that conversion is still not in the list of eBay and Amazon. One thing that you could do is to directly communicate with the seller or buyer and look for a trusted escrow service that will do the job for you.  ;)
 

it can work through the platforms like ModulTrade is making, that are based on smart contracts, I think soon many online shops will have this option, but it can be also a big field for scummers, who can get money and disappear.

Overstock is accepting Bitcoin and McDonald on the list, as far I know.

if you buy it pay with bitcoin directly peer to peer it is the same as a direct money transfer to the seller so it's not good. you still need escrow like ebay and amazon do to protect buyer money.

This is a very serious problem if bitcoin wants to be used for large online stores. So to use bitcoin in a large online store transaction needed is first bitcoin receiver first before forwarded to the seller so that if the goods have been accepted by buyer then buyer will confirm to third party that is online store to send bitcoin to seller. This is almost the same as the passing of the bank but this will make it easier because we do not have to go to a bank or atm machine to make transactions.

No not yet but it surely it would be in the future and would also be accepted by online shopping, there might be some questions regarding this whether the payment made is reversible or not in case the product is delivered or not, so just like other mode of transactions, BTC would also be reversed easily and in the future it would be use for everything, everywhere including online shopping, MacDonald every where because of its numerous benefits and huge craze of people for BTC

Wow its amazing to know that you have enough BTC to buy a boat online even though i knew that it is just an example. In my opinion that feature can only be done if the processor have a direct connection with the seller or in this case Amazon. Bitcoin on the other hand have no middle man which process the payment, even thought there are escrow, the reversal of funds is one of the limitation of the blockchain technology as even stated in the research paper of Satoshi.

You should know that with the actual fees you can not buy little stuff. If you want to buy food as an example, the fees are going to eat everything that you buy (as an example)
but if you buy a smartphone or something expensive, yes, it is really worth it.

Yeah, it can be used for online shopping and I think open bazaar app is in way to use cryptocurrency for any item purchase.

Amazon also looking to incorporate cryptocurrencies as a payment in near future.

Bitcoin is actually the best for online shopping because the buyer can't just press "dispute" and you're going to have a complete loss of the product and the payment. I think the online shopping will work as how other online shopping works but it's going to have an on-site points. The points will only be added to the seller if he has sent a tracking number and the website has confirmed it. Maybe for even better security for both parties, only have the money be able for withdrawal once the shipping company or the courier company that the seller used has confirmed that the buyer has accepted the product.

I think that this would work well because people don't have to keep on sending bitcoins to another wallet whenever they have to make a transaction. They can simply send a lot of bitcoins to the website and spend those money instead of having to send a certain amount of bitcoin every time.

definitly yes ,No matter what you think about it, these days more retailers, restaurants, and online shopping portals have begun opening their doors to the previously-fringe payment method, but  do not work these transactions as regular credit card, but i think  it is   safe .it can work through the platforms like ModulTrade is making, that are based on smart contracts, I think soon many online shops will have this option, but it can be also a big field for scummers, who can get money and disappear.

Actually, bitcoin really work on online shopping because there are some online store who already start to accept bitcoin. On the other hand, I think it is quite convinient because you can pay your bills instantly and easily. As of now many online store keeps on accepting bitcoin because they know it is very valuable.

Amazon is accepting bitcoin as payment and this is the benefits of bitcoin that its investors can buy each and every thing from amazon and sooner many other stores will also accept bitcoin to buy from them actually bitcoin is now famous all around the world and people are coming more toward it and online stores are also coming to the user trend because they know well that in future bitcoin will matter a lot.

There is good solution for online shoping by Bitcoin.
Before payment convert your Bitcoin to general money such skrill, Neteller etc.

I think it works in online shopping here in my country is more online shops here are accepting bitcoins and they seems comfortable in bitcoin that's why I'm happy with that way they made a good way of earning money.

bitcoin can be use online for purchase, as per this there is  a lot of ICO having a project using bitcoin and some coins to use for online shopping in a secure way, well bitcoin development is unstoppable which will really  improve the capability of this coin. bitcoin is all over the world and most merchants and business establishment specially online will grab the opportunity to use bitcoin and attract more customers.

Well yes! because you can access bitcoin through online, so it is also used as online shopping. There are malls all over the world accept bitcoin as a payment, aside from that it is also used in all transactions, so these currency really work and accepted by malls or other company.

Yes, I think bitcoin can actually be used as a currency for online trading. It has its uniqueness.

No, according to my experience i have no seen such a mall or any other place who are accepting bitcoin as online payment still because still bitcoin have not get such a big population from the world so that mall or shop start accepting bitcoin. But yes its true that world will start payment in BTC soon because BTC is getting more and more customers in quick rate.

Yes because of the low of transaction in about bitcoin matters. I think the online store are need more some cash than bitcoin there are online shop that are cash on delivery where there are more people wants like this kind of transaction for being assured of what they get items. Because their are some people needs assurance before giving money. So I think there are no yet pnline stores getting bitcoin as payments. And I think they will do it if the bitcoin really exposed.

i heard Amazon is in consideration to accept Bitcoin and Etherum and Litecoin by coming next year most probably. if amazon accept it will change the world of shopping to new multi billion dollar market with decentralized shopping

Yes....
One of online wallet can convert your bitcoin into other currency so you can shop online....

My friends never try it before....
But they say you can convert your bitcoin to the currency you need and you can use it for shopping.... Even online

I still do not think Bitcoin can be made in the online store payment, may Amazon find the most appropriate way for Cryptocurrency can be made in their online store...

Yes bitcoin work for online shopping but the process is hectic. You will be dependent on the middle person / source like pay pual / amazone or e-bay before you get the item. Therefore, normally is hard to pay with bitcoin.

Oh yes it does. I just shipped online for a PlayStation and it was smooth and easy.

First of all why does Bitcoin is responsible for that transaction? you only use bitcoin as a payment. if you don't received your ordered product, eBay or Amazon will be the one who is responsible for that. The best thing to do is to pay it whenever it is being delivered already to you. It is just by scanning his/her QR code. It is more safe if we do that this way.

base on what i have research or read yes bitcoin works for online shopping it has methods to follo. but i never tried or done bitcoin for online shopping but i have wallet that can convert bitcoin in our own money and i used it to buy load,pay bills and transfer money to bank..it made my life easier paying my bills paying through online since i don't have someone can help me at our house and i am the only one who took good care of my kids..

of course because bitcoin is very helpful in online transactions.

that's true because bitcoin can be redeemed into any currency. so bitcoin is very helpful

bitcoin is designed for online shopping and so on, even every day bitcoin is used in human life. we already know that shopping centers accept snacks, so they keep a good amount of bitcoin in them.

Yes, this is possible with Bitcoin. Only that it will affect the seller, in a certain way. Amazon/eBay can act as an escrow service as well. Amazon/eBay will keep the Bitcoin until both sides confirm they received the package, else, the money will be returned. More than that, Amazon has a contract with the sellers, therefor they know who received the money and if they refuse to pay it back, they can sue them and send them to jail for not paying it back.

$500 million? What will they use it for? Just like money collector.

Anyway, about bitcoin will reverse to you, i dont think it can be like that. It can not be reversed. The only one that can give your money back is the shop.

I think its yes and as what I have know today it is already happening. Some online shopping sites are now accepting bitcoin as a mode of payment, and some online shops are made to use bitcoin as a payment system. And I think it was a great deal and a great opportunity to bitcoin.

There are some country which are well known about bitcoin and give the exchange of money by accepting bitcoin. They will check and verify that but most of the country will not accept it so there you can not use bitcoin for online shopping.
Some online site like Amazon and eBay receive coins at advance and hold the buyers' bitcoin before giving them to the seller until you receive the item but you have to pay money and the will return bitcoin after you have paid that.
Usually, you can not use it at most of the online shopping site.

Well, if the transaction has been made, we all know that it will not be undone anymore unlike bank payments or other forms of fiat payments. But if you are dealing with a legitimate seller and you have not come into an agreement that would be beneficial to the two of you, then perhaps you will decide together that he will return your bitcoins. The point here is that you should be careful of the wallet and the owner of the wallet. Because there is no such thing as second chance once a mistake has been committed.

I think you don't know much about shopping sites system for reverse of transaction , reverse in transaction is not possible in almost every services by the users ( only PayPal like system and another banking sector can reverse by banks only not by user ) .
In Actual practice to reverse the transaction they send money in your wallet , not reverse .
Here the same thing can happen easily with bitcoin but I am sure that if deals will not done then surely buyers and sellers both of them will get loss of money by the transaction fee of 2-3$ easily .

Yes many shopping sites here that accept bitcoin I dont recognize them a lot but I see in facebook that accept btc as payments they say that they accept btc because of easy and fast transactions in other country even if they dont know there costumer.

Installment preparing of eBay and Amazon are just in a type of dollar. Client with various cash tends to change over it initially to dollar before the installment procedure goes through. That could be the thought you are searching for, however to the extent I know, organization that will do or can do that change is still not in the rundown of eBay and Amazon. One thing that you could do is to specifically speak with the dealer or purchaser and search for a trusted escrow benefit that will carry out the activity for you.

There are many retailers which accept bitcoin as online shopping like cryptopia. And there are many other sites like expedia ,Ggifter , overstock.com , newegg and many others which accept bitcoin in online shopping. Bitcoin now days became very popular people from developed countries do shopping with bitcoin. There life became more easy with online shopping.

I think so. Maybe amazon or ebay can get everyone's bitcoin address and while doing that, amazon or ebay may lock or tskr control of the wallet. Sellers must confirm or upload a signature to access and send their bitcoins from other wallets. So in case the seller tries run and gun the bitcoins, these websites can somehow lock the transactions.

Sure you can. Its developed for this use case!

Yes, we have to think for this problem also. As Amazon started accepting bitcoin as payment mode, they already thinked on this issue, they may have solution on this also. As bitcoin transaction is one sided move, I think they can resend our order to correct problem.
But realy it will be better and faster than fiat currency.

Yes. There are online seller who accept bitcoin i think. Bitcoin work online. Usually bitcoin can be accepted in paying online. Online transactions are bitcoin design to. Its digital thats why its crytocurrency because it has a value just like a real money that be use to purchase somehing online. Alrhough people are hoping for more retailer and online seller accept bitcoin. Bitcoin is design to do transactions online. This is perferct for online shopping. Its like a credit card that csn be use to pay online shopping.

Yes. A lot of people use bitcoin for payment online in the past even coffee shop accept Bitcoin. But in current situation no many people can afford bitcoin transaction fees just for a cup of coffee lol. I think that time only history now. But I believe bitcoin dev have solution for this bitcoin transaction fees problem.

Not only source of shopping but bitcoin has made life easy and now people are taking good benefit from bitcoin through online shopping. It has made all easy now we can buy everything we like just with simple click and for it we will not have to go out and suffer in rush shopping malls. It is said to be as saving in this age but in future bitcoin will have lots of more features, for paying bills and all kind of shopping will be done with bitcoin only.

as of now ebay is accepting bitcoin... but for now you need to convert you bitcoin to real cash to buy online product and if bitcoin become satble and more secure i think it can make it..

Bitcoin is a wonderful coin but you can not do anything by that coin. Even there are some countries which have banned bitcoin in their country. No government gives the exchange of money by receiving bitcoin so you have to invest and receive money by online.
You can not pay bitcoin into most of the online or any physical shopping center for shopping. But there is some online shopping center like Amazon and Ebay receives bitcoin and send the thing you bought but you have to pay money when you will receive that material and they will return you that bitcoin. You can only deal and invest into bitcoin and get money back by selling them so that till now you cannot use bitcoin for online shopping.

I’m pretty sure Dell already accepts BITCOIN for purchasing electronics and a bunch of other companies too accept bitcoin idk about other cryptocurrency though

well bitcoin development is unstoppable which will really  improve the capability of this coin,I think bitcoin can actually be used as a currency for online trading.

For now it's not yet online shopping using bitcoin, at least not in my country.

Wait Amazon does? I thought you only could buy gift cards with the bitcoin and spend that instead of some balance instead of a proper payment with cryptocurrency

Yes but for now here in our country i dont hear any news that online shopping is already accepting bitcoin,but 7eleven is now accepting bitcoin

I've been in this situation where I bought a game in steam using bitcoin and didn't put the right amount. It was my fault at the first place but I demanded for a refund and after few hours I had my money back but lesser because of the transaction fee. So this answers the question if you are able to get a refund.

If bitcoin becomes popular I am sure that someday there will be a online shop that accept bitcoin as payment.especially that bitcoins amount is increasing and the community of it is growing

There have been several online shopping which accepts payments with bitcoin and it gives a lot of ease in shopping.
However there are still many  disadvantages that make bitcoin as tools of  payment, the fee is too expensive and there are several countries who made illegal bitcoin

Well it can be cause it is the most secure and reliable but it can't happened peer to peer but their are various payment processor which we can implement.

Now a days we can used bitcoin for buying everything also paying bills. What more in online shopping we can also used it. Because their are some online shop that receive bitcoin.

This is possible, and Bitcoin is now getting more involved. The number of online shopping is increasing year by year, and the number of purchases is also increasing. Bitcoin to online shopping is a trend.

Everything can be done. Services like Amazon, Paypal, Ebay and others can make some changes. But that is not a major problem.
The main problem is if we start to use Bitcoin for buying and selling he couldn't keep up. Visa network is far bigger. So technically it would suffer.
Bitcoin and other crypto currencies need to develop more. But we are getting there.

More and more online shops are accepting bitcoin, situation was altered in the recent days, but it will become normal again and bitcoin will be acceptable again i think.

Yes, Bitcoin works for Online shopping, example, Overstock and some other websites. But you can always get a Bitcoin Debit Card and use that to purchase online. You can get any of these https://www.bitcoinmarketinsider.com/7-different-bitcoin-debit-card-services-and-fees/

also, UK Fintech LBX to launch a Card that also supports Altcoins
https://www.bitcoinmarketinsider.com/lbx-launching-bitcoin-visa-debit-card-with-support-for-altcoins/

Yeah if you want to get a discount on Amazon you can use Bitcoin with Purse.io, there's also a Bitcoin Debit Card called Bitpay. Some retailers like Newegg.com outright accept Bitcoin as payment!

Good question. I bought online with bitcoin an helicopter with remote control for my child, few months ago. I received it and everything was ok. Maybe I wouldn't have the courage to spend more to buy a boat unless they give me a tracking number or something..

I don't think it possible since bitcoin is unstable, and can gives some non-profit to company. Just thought the item you bought from site is in 5$. Later you didn't receive your item company refund your money but at exact time the value of bitcoin decrease. The company can lose the money and no body want to lose in business. Bitcoin is risky and maybe it hard for these company to accept btc as payment method.

have. Only when I need the paper money I want to trade my bitcoin to spend in life. bitcoin converted to usd. But bitcoin can not exchange goods.

I here that Amazon accpt bitcoin payments. But I never try it and never use any purchases with bitcoin.

In that case, bitcoin has nothing to do with your transaction if it's made online. But rest assured that the site will pay you back. They have the record if you have paid or not. And if they fail to deliver your order, it's between you and said sites wether you want them to pay you back in fiat or in cash.

yeah! there are lot of shopping sites that btc included as 1 payment

Yeah, I am using Bitcoin to shop for domains in Namecheap. Works like a charm, fees are a little bit right now, but for the purpose I am totally fine.

I believe if a site states that they accept Bitcoin as a means of payment then, they will have regulatories similar to other currency payment. That will make transactions safe and smooth for online shoppers.

I have had of succesful shoppers that paid with bitcoin and had their orders delivered to them

Two of the country’s biggest names in e-commerce, Overstock.com and TigerDirect.com, earned themselves some press (and perhaps goodwill from the tech crowd) with their recent decisions to start accepting Bitcoin as payment.....Now, though, users of the controversial peer-to-peer digital system can spend their cryptocurrency in brick and mortar stores including Home Depot, CVS, Kmart and Sears as well as online at web retail granddaddy Amazon.com.“Bitcoin users don’t have as many places to spend as they might like, and many of them have made quite a bit of money in the past year,” he said, adding that the demographic likely to embrace peer-to-peer payment systems probably has a fair amount of disposable income to begin with....

I didn't try it yet, but  I think it is possible. :) In todays generation many people are using modern technology and many people are using online shopping. Maybe in other countries they can use it directly but in others you still need to convert btc to your own currency before you can buy online. I believe that in the future btc will be known around the world. And we can use it anytime because I believe that anything possible. :)

yes it does work for online shoppin, to be on the safe side buyer first know if the seller accept bitcoin

With Bitcoin it makes it easier for the customer to engage with the store owner to know if they accept Bitcoin or not.

How could you ever use Bitcoin for online shopping when the fees of every transaction are now 20-30$ ??? Come on, you must be joking.

You may have to use a payment processor like Bitpay to ensure you do not loose your purchased property. You can't get your BTC back if your purchased goods do not get to you. An alternative is to do a peer to peer transaction.

From the scenario I believe for any shopping site or mall to be receiving bitcoins  as a means of payment , it must have set aside a unit or department that attends to complaint that comes from bitcoin  payment on either purchases or returns.

Hence if there is a dispute or complaint it will be attended to and refunds can be done because while filling payment details on the site it will have requested for all necessary information and if not mails or chatting with their customer representative can help get across to them all information needed for neccessary refund to customers wallet.

In this world of technology advancement it can be achieved ,all they will need is to build a software to resolve such queries.

Bitcoin alone cannot solve the problem, because it is irreversible.

Sellers have a good reputation for accepting bitcoins as payment, and they can refund your bitcoins.

I think its not working. In our country it is not possible there is much need to consider before it will run like how much the fee is because the others would love go to shopping mall and we buy at the mall theres a huge of tax and what if shopping online using bitcoin i'll make sure its double fee. And the other need to consider is not everyone appreciate the modern technology and not everyone knows bitcoin.

Perhaps there is regulation of online shopping and bitcoin because bitcoin can get you the real money and therefore it turns into buying online shopping.

It seems to me, it is more rational to use bitcoin for investment. Paying for purchases in the Internet is not very profitable, as the price of bitcoin is still unstable.

I'm really looking forward to the time when on the Internet you can pay with crypto currency. This should simplify international orders and increase the security of payments.

E-commerce make ease for customers and save their time and energy,You can buy everything you want on fingertips.There are different modes for online shopping but Bitcoin make it more secure quick and profit oriented.Like Amazon.com encourage Bitcoin payments and customers take benefit from it and in future it will be common every one will accept the Bitcoin payment which will remove the hurdles of payments.

Yes it does. I know a certain PC store that sells everything off bitcoin. Then if you need an invoice they give it to you but converted into fiat. And they deliver. Only the BTC prices are a bit higher than the regular ones. But not by much. So all in all it's ok.

To be honest, I'm still trying not to buy anything with bitcoin
For me it is somnatelno, I do not want to lose my bitcoins once again
Maybe in the future when things get to a good level I'll start by doing this

Yes it is possible, there is already an implemented payment method where users can buy stuff's at amazon using bitcoins and the price will be much cheaper since the value of bitcoins today is increasing. This means that the community of bitcoins is growing and might be fully use to different online stores in the future.

In fact, it will be great when payment bitcoin will develop. The main reason is that the amount of fraud should decrease, since bitcoin is the safest currency.

Once I wanted to make a purchase on the Internet for bitcoins, but then I found out how much it would cost me ... In general, I stopped on time and in the near future I do not plan to make purchases with bitcoin.

Actually there are already shops online that accepts bitcoin. Like in our country, bitcoin can be used to pay utility bills, online game cards and online shops of some stores which accept online payments. Internationally there goes amazon, which is the largest online shop. So before you know it, bitcoin already did it.

I think bitcoin does not work online shopping. As i have experienced, what i did is to convert my bitcoin into fiat from my wallet and then when it was converted already then that would be the time where to make transactions and pay my bills online thru my wallet. The fact is, i did not use bitcoin itself as a payment. I still used fiat after i converted my bitcoin.

Yes some of the websites accept Bitcoins. For instance Dell accepts it.

I think someday it will be possible for the bitcoin to be used in some transactions in the internet like for online shopping.  If that will happen in the future, online shopping will be an easy shopping for us. Also, more people will be curious about bitcoin and as a result, bitcoin will become famous. The economy of the countries that will adapt bitcoin will grow more and develop.

Be carefull, you might end up spending more money on the fees rather then just the product alone. We need to wait until the fees are fixed and then we might expect Bitcoin mass adoption

I think it's impossible to control. And to make such purchases, directly with the seller, is extremely dangerous. Another thing is to buy goods online in the online store that takes bitcoin as a payment. Then you are insured and know to whom you are applying in case of what

This is where ESCROW is put into action to prevent both (seller and buyer) from doing scam and that the transaction will be made 100% so the seller can receive the price of his item in bitcoin and the buyer can also receive the item that he bought from the seller.

Bitcoin's coverage and acceptance depends on a country to country basis. There are a lot of money exchanger globally, that serves as tool in the bitcoin operation online. This includes legitimate online sellers. Moreover, bitcoin is considered as digital money, so expect that it will be more active on online transactions including purchases.

The answer of your question in the title is :
Yes, it is work. Bitcoin works well for online payment.
but the answer of your question in your last paragraph is :
No, its not possible for bitcoin to reverse the transaction.
If you never received your order, you can request refund to the seller.
There is no guarantee that bitcoin network will reverse your transaction.

I think sometime it will be workable for the bitcoin to be utilized as a part of a few exchanges in the web like for internet shopping. In the event that that will occur later on, web based shopping will be a simple looking for us. Additionally, more individuals will be interested about bitcoin and accordingly, bitcoin will end up noticeably acclaimed. The economy of the nations that will adjust bitcoin will develop progressively and create.

It's actually being applied now by some online sellers. So there's no question anymore if will work or not because it does and once the issue with fees and transaction speed gets settled, there will be more that will adopt this option. And as with fiat today, refunds aren't really working for online transactions. Most of the time you just get to replace your item after a few hassle

Not in every place but a lot of the places I shop online do receive Bitcoin.

I saw some article about it. Some online seller are applied for bitcoin as a payment method. Some are already allowed bitcoin as a payment method.  It's transaction method is so easy to pay
 Hope very soon we will be allowed to purchase by bitcoin.

Yes, there are lots of online shopping websites offer bitcoin in their products. It is good since the community and business related in bitcoin is growing up.

Some of the country often used this bitcoin for online shopping. Easiest and fast transaction when your going to buy something no need to go to store or experience hastle .Since bitcoin is growing up lots of country been using it.

Its work if you buy with e bay or amazon and we can transaction with bitcoin.

Why we can not use it? The purpose of bitcoin as currency is being used to pay online shop or something else.
However, there are some country who accept bitcoin in offline and online too. So its possible to use it.

Bitcoin can be used to redeem money that can be converted into most countries. Users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats, and equipment in online games. If accepted, they can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items.

I think if we shop online with bitcoin then it will be difficult for us to track the goods we buy, better if shopping online using bitcoin we do it with people we already know or we believe so that we can avoid the risk of losing goods

The question is asked in time, and no, Bitcoin will not solve the problem. However, those ones who need very fast deals can choose exactly Bitcoin. Here is an article that can prompt you where to spend BTC online:

https://www.inverse.com/article/38953-the-22-major-stores-online-that-accept-bitcoin

It actually works in some country and in some country it does not work at all. But in the working country, it does not work directly. It does not work peer to peer, bitcoin work through some payment processor in online shopping. It is getting popular day by day. Amazon is now accepting bitcoin! Soon other online shops will also accept bitcoin, no doubt about that.

As bitcoin enlarging the area of its domain, the payment of bitcoin online shopping is very easy to do. Actually this is happening now is some countries. Btc can be able to pay in transaction if there's no cash. Bitcoin can handle the situation.

Bitcoin is designed for online transaction so definitely it will do great in paying online.  Since bitcoin is now popular there are some shop that accepts bitcoin as a mode of payment.  There are many ways that bitcoin can gives service to us.  I want to see someday that it does almost everything and accepted as one of means of payment.

Yes there is a online shopping application in smartphones offers this services. That is Alibaba, the offer some products which you can used bitcoin as your payment in their products.
It is a nice thing that there are business like them start to innovate the process.

Bitcoin is a virtual currency in itself and needs Internet connection to trade. It is very suitable for online transactions, but the anonymity of bitcoin can easily damage the interests of our consumers or sellers. For example, the receipt is not paid to the seller or the buyer Home payment but no receipt, which can not be tracked, this is difficult to solve the problem.

It depends on the seller, sometimes it is not possible and if it is possible the transaction fee is too high. I hope someday the online shops will allow bitcoin as a direct payment with low transaction fee.

Of course it can, after all it was originally intended to be the official currency of the internet. However, you have to use software such as bitpay in order to make use of bitcoins in transactions, otherwise it might endager all your coins. We have been okay with Paypal so we too must ve fine with using Bitpay since it is just like that but only for bitcoins.

Bitcoin pay is not available ryt now
may be some of the online store is still supporting bitcoin pay

Bitcoin of course, could be used as a means of payment for transactions made on the internet. After all it was made to be intended for this purpose. we just found a way of business in it. Anyways, before you could actually be able to carry out payments with bitcoin, we first have to use bitpay. It is basically paypal but instead its for bitcoins.

I found a lot of online shopping that received bitcoin, and I've tried to pay with bitcoin, and of course the payment process is very fast because we do not need confirmation to the seller that we have paid because bitcoin is different from cash or transfer bank payments.

I have heard as well about some online shops accept bitcoin as a payment but I haven't tried it yet. To make it sure I encash ny bitcoin and pay it as a cash. Try to research about online shop that accepts bitcoin or just encash it and pay with cash.

Bitcoins do work well for online shopping aswell as there are lot of online shopping these days which accepts bitcoins as their mode of payment.In the past amazon used to accept bitcoins and later they stopped as the price of the btc market is not always the same and the sellers feared that it might be loss for them in case the market sinks and hence amazon stopped accepting bitcoins,but still you can buy amazon products from a web site named purse.io and you can make payment using bitcoins . i guess the payment done on that can be reversed if the product is not delivered .

I think it's been used in online stores. Is not yet ??

Bitcoin is very possible to apply in transact using online shopping as above, especially now that bitcoin has started using lightning network technology. This technology, as well as an escrow service wherein one network, can be used for various transactions of the users. This technology is also a solution to the cost and slowness of bitcoin transactions so far using single block. This technology can be applied as long as an online shopping is receiving payment using bitcoin.

Yes,bitcoin works for online shopping.At present there are so many online shopping site.This shopping sites sells their product in exchange of bitcoin.As a result we can buy anything easily that is available in those sites.

A lot of different online shops accepted bitcoin few years ago and yes, it's work for online shopping but not everywhere because developers are scared of scammers.

I think it's possible. Coins.ph can make it possible tho i never tried it before.

Yes, and it will be very effective for the digital era. Modern society is very fond of something practical and fast, bitcoin is one solution, with the addition can be used as an investment tool. But you must make sure that the transaction is legal in your country.

It does. Some online sites are actually accepting bitcoins as a form of payment for their products. I'm just not sure about ebay because of the seller identity and the assignment of an anonymous wallet. Maybe ebay and amazon will be releasing an official statement regarding this.

I currently use sites like paxful to get stuff like amazon. Other retailers like overstock.com and tigerdirect.com let you buy items directly from them. They are sending smoke goods only a bad thing. If a refund is required they issue it through the fiat with my experience. 8)

KFC Canada, CheapAir.com, Zynga, Bitcoincoffee.com, Fancy.com, ShopJoy, LOT Polish Airlines, WebJet, One Shot Hotels, Green Man Gaming - they all accept BTC! Pretty sure that there are many many others.

Actually the purpose of the existence of cryptocurrency is to facilitate someone in the transaction so that any type of goods you want to buy can take advantage of bitcoin for payment instruments every time.

good question, i dont know, you have to pay fees, slowly transactions, but maybe using bitbay is a good idea

I think it is best suited for online businesses or shopping. It is because Bitcoin is an online currency. If you use it online, it will make transactions more convenient and easier to both parties since you just need an e-wallet to transfer payments.

We are a mobile payment platform for bitcoin and believe it will be a simple matter as Bitcoin grows.

I think it's really good if bitcoin can work for online shop. because it will project the seller from chargebacks.
as i know it is very famouse thats why big shopping centre in europa can accepting bitcoin.

Of  course yes, but not many online shop using coin exchange as their payment method yet. Just wait for it.

I think the use of the bitcoin for online shopping or used for saving it legitimate, find bitcoins indeed to meet our needs and to help others in need, just do not use the bitcoin to money laundering, it is not either.

Bitcoin has multi purposes, thus, it can be used in online shopping too. I believe, it'll become a trend nowadays since people are into the Internet world.

I think it would be interesting and convenient. Here everything depends on the trust to the seller and the store, most importantly, so as not to be deceived.

Of course it does. That's one of the reasons why bitcoin was created. But when it comes to scammers, scammers are sprouting everywhere, may it be in eBay or Amazon or by the use of bitcoin. But time will tell that bitcoin can make shopping online more secure.

It is a risk with the fact that you can not track your orders, I guess you just have to take the risk and order

Yes it works for online shopping because you can use bitcoin as your payment. So, it is useful to ourlives. Amazing.

Bitcoin already works for online shopping (my brother bought a toy helicopter online and payed it with bitcoin)

To me bitcoin has worked perfectly fine when I used it for small online purchases. And the big stuff like houses, there is usually at least one lawyer involved to confirm that payments are made and everybody is the owner of the good he is selling. I think I have read recently that a house was really sold in Bitcoins. Handled carefully, bitcoin is a real payment option if both sides agree.

yes it may be true bitcoin for online shopping but not all online stores accept payments with bitcoin, because there is an online shopping store that is still not open to receive bitcoin as a way of penbayan, because it is impossible if you use bitcoin directly.

I think another coin will change online shoping!Not BTC

Yes,I buy another thing and pay via BTC
But BTC often use for underground

Of course, you can use bitcoin for online shopping. But I don't know the online shoppers that accepting bitcoin as payment.

Of course, There's an apps that can be use to purchase item on online shooping. You could download it on apps store or google store or you can seearch it on google they might give you right link for that. hope it helps

That's is very soon possible. Bitcoin already get huge popularity ,so shopping system will be available soon.already some shopping site do it support bitcoin.but not huge site.

I know several shops where BTC are accepted for payment. In fact BTC is not popular as payment tool at present. Mostly it is due to high transaction fees. Now transactions fees are lower than it was 2 months ago..so may be situation will be changed

Yes. Bitcoin is accepted at Moonlambos.io (http://Moonlambos.io)! You can also buy supercars with Ethereum and ELTCOIN. 🌕🏎

Maybe some other online sellers can order you, and you'll be charged with bitcoin and of course you will order or buy the online retailer for receiving bitcoin as a fee. Love it or hate it, there’s no denying that pretty much everyone you meet is going to have one opinion or another on the topic of Bitcoin. The digital, decentralized, encrypticized currency that only exists on the Internet and bows to no nation.

Yes it does because from what i read there are some online shopping that are accepting bitcoins as payment for the items they bought. These days more retailers, restaurants, and online shopping portals have begun opening their doors to bitcoin. That doesn’t mean that there are no outlets to spend your bitcoin, however, far from it. It’s just that bitcoin volumes at these outlets has generally not met their expectations.

Now there are more and more online stores and other online shopping sites that accept bitcoin. I have not tried it yet, the good thing about bitcoin payments is that every transaction is completely transparent and can be seen in blockchain. Seller as well as buyer can access the transaction whether it has been confirmed or not? Another good thing is peer to peer transactions, unlike normal transactions with banks. With bitcoin you can easily ask the dealer to resell the bitcoin if you do not keep the item delivered to you. 8)

If you're dealing with an online seller, I highly discourage anyone to use bitcoins as a means to trade for physical goods specially if don't know personally who you're dealing with. Just buy at trusted stores or big tech groups with their products instead of buying from ebay. It's a hard pickle to find people who have anonymous addresses.

We know already since the beginning Bitcoin is so risky when it comes to make a big transaction no one can manipulate this, only person to person has a able to fix this problem which is you and your seller can solve this problem that's why many people here are giving an advise to all people that when you have to enter the BUY and SELL through Bitcoin Process just make sure that all transaction you have made are clear before you go on process

Yes, bitcoin does works in online shopping to the shops that accept bitcoins. If all of the shops are accepting bitcoins, it would be very easy for us to shop or purchase something we need. They said KFC is now accepting bitcoins, it would be nice if all fastfood accept bitcoins so that we can easily purchase for delivery

Surely many of us who like online shopping, so even with me.
And it would be helpful if bitcoin is used as an online shopping. The most important thing should be mutual benefit between sellers and buyers. But unfortunately not all online stores accept bitcoin as their payment tool.

I understand that every country has their own bitcoin processors when we use bitcoin as payment for online transactions. This will be safer for both buyers and sellers in case a problem arise.

Maybe soon because  bitcoin is a cashless kind and you can send receive money without  any charges

Yes, actually alibaba is one of the shopping website who offers bitcoin as a currency payment in their items; from this they can be able to promote the crypto and make the process more faster and convenient.

 Bitcoin it safe haven for any problems come across the people .just because it is irriserssible it is a service similar to amazon and eBay that hold the bitcoin buyers and before will give it a item sale until the smaller we get that basically everything is being an escrow that will actually be most likely if inconvenience like 7 eleven shopping store that is online shopping .a seller of online shopping no matter where a country purchased and need the bitcoin accepted any king of online seller.everyone should get their money fast rather than a fiat and also have it here with a coins wallet for exchange it into a money .this coins pH.is also has a card for it to use where you can shops but before that you must first verify it.I think also have in abroad I'm sure abroad it is also very useful it is online sellers and sure that there are many who need it and need to study it first of a legit.

I think that the deal ends in the shopping company. For example if the company accepts to give your coin back than it wouldn`t be a problem. Imagine if Amazon doesn`t want to turn your money back it is not the fiat`s fault but amazon`s.

I believe some online shops are already using Bitcoin as a method of payment which shows us how much cryptocurrency has progressed. The great thing about this is that it provides both parties a secure transaction and hopefully more online shops start to implement this as their method of payment!

yes most multinational companies accept the Bitcoin,It is great opportunity for customers that who buy on fingertips and pay same time by Bitcoin.Bitcoin is the king of crypto currency and it have quick acceptance.
Future is good for bitcoin and it will work globally as medium of exchange.

Here in my countriy we have this app to convert our money to our currency we can also use this for online shopping. I bet if this work in my country how much more in other coutries who are mo progressive more than advance to ours. Bitcoin is design for online transactions for sure this will work out in online shopping. This would be more convenient to everyone else but be careful with scammers otherwise you cant get ur money back.

Yes it can because some online shop accepted it already it's a fastest and easiest way of life of payment to

In our country there is a payment processor for bitcoin. So if there will be a problem transacting with bitcoin, the buyer can communicate directly  with the payment processor who also is responsible for anything that would happen to the transaction.

Yes it does work for online shopping, its perfect to use for mode of payment, its effecient and fast in transaction, no hassle and easy to access..

Well, it really depends on the seller isn't it? What if that seller or services have a feature of bitcoin transaction or "We accept Bitcoin" as payment? Then its a fact that they are using bitcoin for online shopping. It all depends on the company, whether they accept it or not. The problem is, whether this company compensate for the loss or the scamming of Item online, whether you can have a rebate or Are they the one who will pay for the loss.

indeed bitcoin for online shopping one of them, bitcoin can also be used to invest in order to get bigger profits and will make a bite from bitcoin. make a payment transaction with bitcoin while drinking a glass of coffee on the table, all can be done if you have bitcoin. now markets in asia and europe receive snacks for shopping as it stores a number of bitcoins inside its.

i think this is very possible. Bitcoin has an online payment is a good concept for me.
With bitcoin, you can simplify all payment or transactions. I think there are already vendors that accept bitcoin as payment.

currently bitcoin is considered a digital money that is expected to be more active in online transactions including purchases. Bitcoin's coverage and acceptance depend on the country-to-country basis. There are many global money changers, which serve as a tool in bitcoin online operations. This includes a legitimate online seller in my opinion

The purpose of the bitcoin is to create digital transactions. Sathosi Nakamoto created the bitcoin because he saw many problems in our economy. There are now many people and companies nowadays that are now using bitcoin because they saw how the transaction become better and faster.

Big shopping centers in the Asia and Europe are accepting bitcoin for shopping and because of that they reserve good amount of bitcoin. In the future the owners of these shopping centers are good traders of this currency.

Yes, exactly Bitcoin is one of the best solutions for online payments. I find there are fewer people who are accepting Bitcoin for online payment, because some vendors are afraid of government because still, Bitcoin is not legalized in those countries.

The thing is if something went wrong in your online shopping, is bitcoin reversible? I think it's not, unless you are shopping in an online shop where they really cater bitcoin as payment and they have such term that if something went wrong they will return your bitcoin and you won't have a problem, just like how paypal works.

If there is a payment processor who can do that and willing to do it, then I think we should encourage everyone to use it as it will protect the consumers from scammers.

Sedangkan di dalam perdagangan Bitcoin itu jauh lebih mirip jual beli barang online yaitu adanya BUY dan SELL. BUY artinya benar-benar membeli barang berupa ...

Coinbase works slightly different from most Bitcoin buying/selling online wallets in that it actually backs the real funds in your preferred currency immediately, while the bitcoin transaction itself is only registered several days later.

Altcoin Bitcoin does not matter the main thing that you can earn money on the crypto currency.

A lot of stores in my country use it. I also use BTC for shopping sometimes, mostly for Steam  :)

Well i dont think so to having a online shopping from bitcoin as a newbie all the things in bitcoin is i dont know, because im starting now used bitcoin. Well bitcoin is a very nice work you peromote this oppurtunity to us because its very nice and blessed oppurtunity

It always depends on the seller! Many of them even take ONLY Bitcoins as they earn cryptocurrency exactly this way. After getting some BTC they start trading and getting additional profit. It works!

Yes it is. Bitcoin are using for online shopping its normal thing.I have seen many online shop are accepting btc.I hope one day will come when no one will use flat money they will use digital currency. So not only online shopping but also there every transaction will be on bitcoin.

while this may not matter all that much when shopping on a website for something that will take a week to ship, it’s far too long to be a viable solution for checkout counters mobbed with hundreds of voracious shoppers during the holiday rush. This is where a third-party would need to come in and foot the bill while both sides of the equation settle up the final amounts on the backend in order to reduce the transaction delay from 10 minutes to under 10 seconds.

Bitcoin transactions are irreversible so there isn't much you can do after you have sent the payment. But you can use an escrow service to prevent yourself from fraud or only buy from trust worthy web stores.

If you can’t buy with bitcoin you can change some btc for fiat and sell this money at once on payment bill. I always do all my purchases with this way. I began to notice that more and more websites and online stores start to accept btc and eth, and I think it's a huge progress, it's good!

Yes, btc is working for online shopping

Yes. Why not? You can access bitcoin through online, so it is also used as online shopping. There are shops all over the world accept bitcoin as a payment. BTC really work.  ;)

Yes of course, there are some online shops that accept payments via bitcoin, for example ebay, amazon and some other big online shop, but personally I myself do not use bitcoin to shop there, I used to buy steam wallet using bitcoin, more or less the same

What? no ebay and amazon does not accept bitcoin.

And this is really a pity. Do you thing that there are chances that in a future it will be possible to pay with Bitcoins on Ebay or on Amazon or on both big online shops?

I haven't tried this yet but I'm using bitcoin to buy mobile phone load and sending money to other person. It's very convenient

There have been rumors that Amazon are going to accept Litecoin, but months later nothing has been announced so I suspect it was just someone trying to push up the price of LTC

Others have speculated that Amazon/ebay may just create their own tokens. There hasn't been any confirmation of this though.

I'm personally very excited about bitcoin (or any alt, really) being accepted buy big retailers. One of the common criticisms from the uninitiated is 'Bitcoin has no value, you can't use it for anything'. Whilst it's easy to counter this criticism currently, I don't think it would even come up again if the likes of Amazon accepted it!

Thank you very much for your answers! So let's see what in fact will happen regarding cryptocurrencies and Amazon, Ebay etc.. But I also think that an own cryptocurrency of Amazon would be a good solution. Perhaps it also would be possible to buy the cryptocurrency with Bitcoins...  ;D

Definitely, now Bitcoin accepted many online shopping center i know.Not only online shopping also Hotel,Restaurants,Air force ambassador & others many important platform accepted Bitcoin i think.
