Bullion Dealer Drops Credit Card Payments After Bitcoin Success


This success later prompted Agora Commodities to move in a more radical direction, deciding to drop credit card payments entirely.

While work still continues on the project, Castillo said that the company is collaborating with an existing exchange to build back-end support, with a portal expected to be integrated with Agora’s online store.

He explained:

    “Bitcoin fits perfectly with gold and silver, right? So if people come to the site and want to buy gold and silver, why wouldn’t they want to buy bitcoin from us as well?”

This would build on an existing service that Agora is affiliated with, Castillo said. By working with a third party, Agora will soon allow its customers to exchange precious metals for bitcoin.

This is fucking rowdy! Finally, a metals dealer that is willing to allow metalheads to convert their metals into Bitcoin and not just the other way around. Let's start tapping into that PM market share, folks!
