E-Commerce Retailer Fonq.nl Accepts Bitcoin As The Netherlands Continues To Embrace CryptocurrencyOne of the most powerful forces driving the use of bitcoin as a currency is ecommerce, and one of the world's most bitcoin-progressive countries is the Netherlands. Hence, it comes as no surprise that one of the Netherlands most prominent ecommerce merchants, Fonq.nl, now accepts bitcoin.
Go to
www.fonq.nl and you can purchase gifts, housewares and fashion merchandise using bitcoin in addition to a number of other payment options. Shoppers can pay with iDeal (an online payment service), credit card, PayPal and bank transfer, post-delivery, and now bitcoin.
The fact that the Dutch ecommerce retailer didn’t make a big splash about bitcoin might say something about the widespread use of bitcoin in the Netherlands.
At the time of publishing, there is no announcement about bitcoin on the fon.nl website.
BitPay Tweets About Fona.nl
The development came to people’s attention today when BitPay tweeted about it. And as of today, BitPay does not mention fonq.nl on its website either.
Fonq.nl operates four online stores in Europe, according to ecommercenews.eu. In addition to its Netherlands business, the company has ecommerce websites in Belgium, Germany and France. Ecommercenew.eu noted that bitcoin payments are only accepted on the Dutch ecommerce site.
Fonq.nl is part of RFS, which is the second largest ecommerce company in the Netherlands.
