finally bitcoin +12,000 fast food restaurants = mainstream

[franky1]

after months of tempting different online food delivery sites.. guess what

you can now buy fast food with bitcoin
https://www.foodler.com/user/Bitcoin.do

boom 12,094 restaurants across america now accepting bitcoin. boom

i started rambling about it last year and kept it in a few peoples minds to keep pushing people to hammer it home to merchants over the months to think about accepting bitcoins. and it seems one of them has listened so far,

next stage is if a restaurant in your town is linked to the foodler service you can use it to spread the word to other places locally to you that arn't yet accepting bitcoin, but would benefit from it..

so tell you local 7-11 that your local restaurant xyz(whatever it maybe) is accepting bitcoin and allow the other retailers to start looking into bitcoin as the information moves up the chain of command. aswell as any keep and smart guys out there to contact the HQ's of national/international retailers direct

my next step is to keep pushing

Next would be major grocery delivery service. But yes this is great news!

i know.. very great news
I'm using the foodler as an example link to show the other delivery companies that bitcoin is not just for investing in, that they should jump aboard the band wagon and get free press advertising them such as
http://online.wsj.com/article/PR-CO-20130417-908270.html

cant get bigger then the wall street journal to tempt the late night office workers into ordering food from their computers.

if you have listings of national websites that link to many retailers/grocery stores that deliver, ill draft, redraft and triple check my grammar and spelling (like i do on any business communications) to then use this great example as the president to snowball more merchants onboard

(my forum grammar is generally a relaxed rush job after a few shots of whisky. so don't use my forum grammar as a example of how i professionally talk to businesses)

I've written to seamless.com (a food delivery service very popular in New York City) a few times requesting that they accept bitcoin as a payment method. They said they'd look into it. If you'd like to register your interest in this, write to suggestions@seamless.com.

[superduh]

more useful websites, more uses will make bitcoins stronger. great! keep bugging all the sites to use bcoins !!

Thanks for the great news.   

[BTC Books]

Amazing.

Nothing anywhere within any practical distance from me.

But amazing nonetheless.

[bit777]

That's really amazing! Few large deals like that could really make bitcoins a popular payment method in the US.

couple months ago walletbit said they were in contact with justeat in their Hungary, Europe office thanks to my suggestions, but then walletbit went quiet. No updates if a meeting ever happened. so it looks like it has to be a community effort and not a payment gateway effort.
kinda strange though

so my list so far for me and a few people i know to pester.

thailand

fast food is not food, it is an abomination and should not be supported but instead be shunned into oblivion.

Too bad people demands it, and now they can pay it with bitcoin.

Yes, wonderful, give the couch potatoes one less reason to move their big fat miner asses. This will surely end well.

I act as middleman between just eat and bit coin, but just in spain, and not officially. Anyway http://referidosgratis.com/comidaxbitcoin

Hopefully my service would be useless in a few months if just-eat accepts bitcoin directly.

good to hear. and um maybe not so good to hear in the future. but there is ample oppertunity tofind the contact details of just-eat spain

http://www.just-eat.es/contact

show them your service that you already offer and ask if you can become their background exchanger. where they use your exchange rate prices on their official page and they simply send you the coin and you send them the cash.

the only difference maybe is that if you get contracts signed you send them batch payments once a night instead of individual payments throughout the day. freeing up the rest of your day for other projects/expansion.

the beauty of the open market. YOU can be the next big thing

ok all of you eager beavers. please contact the customer services departments of the food websites listed that cover your country and simply say

"do you accept bitcoins? and if not how long until you do because https://www.foodler.com/user/Bitcoin.do have already begun accepting it. please pass this request onto your head office if there is no current plans for bitcoin at the moment. as its a 1.6billion dollar (convert to your native currency amount) currency, growing by the day"

i have found merchants move faster if they see a demand for it.

so if you want it. ask for it.

I did when I started the service, and they told me like ... WTF are you talking about??? No we just accept money.
