Very interesting, let us know how you go clients wise with paying via BTC.
I would also be interested to know what POS system they are using.

We just send the amount into their MtGox address ..... Very bad idea and possibly against their TOS. Should use a proper wallet or provider instead. |

What is your proposal? As I said, use a real wallet, such as blockchain.info to receive payments, then transfer once in a while the funds either to a cold paper wallet, or to the exchange and trade them with a currency of your choice. If you prefer you might directly use bitpay or similar services, though the fee is slightly higher (but you are much safer from sudden drops in value, such as today's). |

Sure, but it isn't better for them: this might be violating MtGox TOS and they risk their account being closed, AFAIK... |

Glad to here it this is a smart idea on their part for sure and good news in general. Hope it starts a trend in Greece! I would imagine a couple early adopters might check it out for the hell of it, I know I'd consider it.

I could add it, but I need to know the exact position (geographical coordinates). Ciao! |
