Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Been using you for the past few days. Very happy.
My only problem I have is, I'd love to see the actual total and not the subtotal from amazon so I can figure in shipping to my price. Any way around this?

Don't know if this helps, but you can get an order total using a fake credit card number (as long as the first 4 digits are real?). I just tested it using 4640 9999 9999 9999 and an expiration of 1/12. Don't know what happens after you apply the gift card, though. If anyone tries it, let us know. Happy spending! |

After an order is placed, how long are normal wait times for the order to get processed? Is this service 24x7?
Orders are processed at least twice a day 7 days per week. This means the maximum wait time to receive a gift code or receipt is twelve hours. |

Question/request: can you display on the website the exchange rates for other currencies other than USD? Fake-ordering something just to get an email with the price is hard and a misuse of the system (and I only did it once, I promise!  ). |

Fake-ordering something just to get an email with the price is hard and a misuse of the system (and I only did it once, I promise! ). You read my mind! This is exactly what I have my coders working on at the moment. No ETA on when it will be done though  . In the meantime, fake-order as often as you like to get a quote. That is not a misuse of the system. While we are able to look up the quotes if we are interested, it is the actual payments we look up to fulfill orders. |

great idea jeremy.west.
is this US only or will it work for non-US countries (i.e. if the normal amazon.com will ship to your country then this will also work).
Hi Kirian! Anywhere amazon will ship to. Happy shopping! Cheers, Jeremy West |

Here's my issue: I would like to order more of the things I buy day-to-day through your service with Amazon. That way, the bitcoins I generate never have to get converted to money that touches my bank accounts. I think you can understand why that's attractive.  Anyway, I currently buy a good amount of stuff from Amazon already, so I have a Prime account. If I use your affiliate link, can I still get the free shipping through my Prime account? Yes. Everything is the same on Amazon for you. Just that by using my affiliate link Amazon knows I sent them the business and gives me a percentage. |

I still don't see the legitimacy in this service.
With all the transaction fees that've gone on the past 12 pages, I'm sure their starting to pile up.
Do share how you get around these? I mean, with BitCard, we offer the ammount you want and the small fee that's at the end covers shipping of an actual physical card.
Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Go Daddy & Fishpond pay us affiliate commissions for sending them business, so we are able to offer them at the actual exchange rate with no fees. The "anything" page uses an exchange rate that covers our costs plus a profit. |

What about if I don't have the Bitcoins to fund the entire order. Can I pay for part of the order with whatever denomination of gift card my Bitcoins bring and pay for the other part with a credit card or something? For example, if I want to buy a couch for like $1200, but I only have a few hundred in BTC, can I pay the rest to Amazon with a credit card as I normally would? Sorry for all the annoying questions. I just want to totally understand this service before I start pipelining all my Bitcoins through it. Yes, this is not a problem at all. Just order the amount you have in bitcoins on our site and then when you check out with the gift code you get from us, it will just ask you for a credit card to pay the balance. |

I placed my first order today and it was amazingly easy. Haven't received my gift code yet but it's only been four hours. If everything continues this easy, and I'm sure it will, you can expect I'll use it often as I order from Amazon 3-4 times a month on the average.
Thanks...

if an australian biller doesn't accept BPAY, but accepts regular bank transfers, can you help with that?
Hi payb.tc, Not a problem. We will set up some fields on the site for that ASAP. For now, just fit the info in the form as is and email us with any additional info we will need. Cheers! Jeremy |

cool, next question then:
do you have the cashflow to be able to pay a $5000 bill... or, what would be a reasonable limit to assume?
Not a problem. Happy spending! |

I've used your service four times now and it's real easy.
I'm wondering how it's working for you? Are you having enough volume to make it worth wile.
It'd be fun to know....

Thanks for asking. It's working quite well. The volume was quite high when I started out, but has dropped back a bit as bitcoin value has decreased. It is still enough to make it worthwhile. Here's to another meteoric rise in bitcoin value! |
