Last week we opened Bitspend.net with the intention of providing the Bitcoin community a way to purchase anything they wanted, from any website, and pay with Bitcoins.  What we didn't expect, was how many of you would try and use Bitspend the first day!  We were overwhelmed with your desire to purchase items from all over the internet, and pay with Bitcoins.  As you know, we had to stop taking orders for a few days.  Well, we're back!!

Bitspend.net is now open for business, giving you the opportunity to spend your Bitcoins anywhere online. 

If you have any questions about how our service works, or which kind of doughnuts we like best, don't hesitate to ask.  Email support@bitspend.net to have a conversation with one of us, or ask your question here.  You will probably get a faster reply via email, but we will make sure to check here regularly.



Thank you guys for helping to make Bitspend.net an overnight success!
The Bitspend Team

Yes!  We have plans also to integrate PGP into the site for ALL communications.  We are also going to be upgrading our SSL certificate, so people always know they're on our secure site.

We know you rely on the word of the operator when a company tells you they are destroying your data.  We can only continue to live up to our word, and prove as time goes on that we are doing exactly what we sy we are as a company.

For now, please feel free to contact us via email using our public PGP key:

It does take a nice chunk of capital to pull it off, yes - however we were amazingly lucky enough to have a successful initial round of funding in a matter of days, which has enabled us to relaunch immediately with enough capital to handle all your orders!

We were overwhelmed with the amount of you who wanted to begin using Bitspend.net on Sunday night when we launched.  So much so, that we had to suspend taking orders!  In the last 96 hours, we have gone through a round of funding and when we relaunch on Monday we'll be able to handle all the orders you guys throw at us

On top of our basic service, which allows you to spend your Bitcoins anywhere on the internet for a small flat fee(shops, hotels, flights, anything!), we added a few new features.  I want to tell you about one of them now - our favorite one!

• The 100% guaranteed Anonymity Package allows you to purchase anything legal, without a single trace left over when your transaction is complete.  The way it works is simple.  You tell us what to order, we order it and have it shipped to our secure warehouse (24 hour security).  From there, your order is relabeled and shipped to you directly from us.  This cuts you out of the original transaction all together.  When you confirm you have received the item you ordered and are satisfied, we wipe all identifiable records of the transaction from our encrypted, offline storage.  We have plans in place to handle returns, exchanges, etc., and those will be detailed in our new FAQ page when we launch.

This brings back the days of cash purchases and integrates them into our digital lives.  Every time you buy something with your credit card both online and physically, you are instantly added to databases all over the world.  Governments, financial institutions, big data companies, all know everything you buy - but do they have the right to? NO!

Bitspend believes it is your right to shop anonymously.  As long as you are buying legal items, we will make sure you always have a safe and secure way to do that going forward.

Our new office will be open in the coming weeks in South Florida.  We're leaving an open invitation right here for any of you BTC enthusiast - feel free to stop by our offices and say hi, check us out, or get information on Bitcoins.  Should you happen to need some, we will always gladly sell you some on the spot as well

We have some things planned for the near future which will continue to shake up not only Bitcoins, but the way we use them.

For now, thank you all for your support!  We look forward to providing all of you with an affordable and secure way to shop online anywhere you want using your Bitcoins!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart,
Justin W.
CEO - Bitspend.net

Thank you!

You can delete this post should you feel the need so, as I would prefer to post it in a more fitting area

We have much more planned for the coming weeks and months, features which will expand on this in whole new ways!

For right now, our fees are planned as:

$0-50 = $2
$51-100 = $3
$101-500- = $4
$501-1,000 = $5


However, we have also been kicking around the idea of having only 2 fees, one for under $200 of $3, and one above $200 of $5.  Know this though, if we do change the pricing it will be lower, not higher.

Thanks for asking
Justin

Thanks, I'm going to go back to Reddit then.  Please let me know when I should come back

Hey guys

We are Bitspend.net, a new start-up which allows you to order anything from any website(legal and non-living!), and pay for it using your Bitcoins.  The how is simple, you place your order with us by giving us the URL of the item(s) you want.  We send you an invoice and ask for your shipping details.  Once you've paid in Bitcoins, we place your order for you just as if you would have ordered it yourself.  The order is placed based on the URL and details you give us, and shipped directly to you which is why we ask for your shipping details.

For those of you who are as privacy-minded as we are, please have a look at our cut and dry privacy policy on the site.

We were planning on allowing Anonymous payments using Blockchain.info, but since it is down indefinitely we cannot.  However, we will make use of split-payments for those of you who want to make sure that your order is not traced to your Bitcoins.  Since we will be accepting Bitcoins from numerous addresses, and ordering using our accounts on the chosen websites of your products - there is really no definitive way to tie a Bitcoin payment to an order we place, especially if multiple split-payments are made.   Again, this option is only for those of you who want another layer of privacy.  For the rest of you, read our privacy policy regarding your data.

We plan on accommodating orders up to $5,000 in a couple months, and up to $1,000 in a few weeks.  For now, while we iron out our processes, we will be in an open beta and will allow orders up to $100.  We will accept orders above $100 on a case by case basis, just email us at orders@bitspend.net and we will happily help you.

Our goal is to provide the absolute bets customer service possible.  In an effort to do that, we will have live phone support for all orders over $50, as well as live chat support and email support for all orders under $50.  We also have someone who will be monitoring our twitter @bitspendsupport, /r/bitspend, and any forum accounts to answer any and every question possible.

The end goal of this and the Bitcoin community is to have all retailers online accept bitcoin - however that is not likely to happen at your larger companies for years if ever.  We plan to bridge that gap for as long as needed, and provide you a way to order anything online you want using your Biotcoins.

We know a lot of trust is needed in a business like ours - the guys over a pizzaforcoins.com have helped pave the way for honest start-ups to provide services letting you buy things with Bitcoins you cant otherwise.  In an effort to be as transparent as possible, in the next few weeks we will be moving into new offices in South FL where we live, and our office address will be listed.  We invite any of you to stop by and see for yourself, we are not a disappearing scam, but instead we are in it for the long-haul and have a few surprises coming in the months ahead that we hope will shake up the Bitcoin marketplace everywhere.


Thank you guys for reading!
