Quite a few big sites have already begun to integrate payment options for Bitcoin and you can purchase everything from VPN services to pizza or home goods.
So, you're in luck if you've been holding onto your bitcoin for a while either privately or in an exchange such as Coinbase and feel ready to use them to make a purchase.
If you're wondering where to start, look no further than the following top websites that are now accepting Bitcoin as payment for their goods and services.
By the way, more and more brick-and-mortar sites are accepting Bitcoin, too. Fly into Denver and you can even pay for your parking with Bitcoin. Cryptocurrency is not just for the unsavory criminal any more.
You can't spend bitcoins at every website or offline store, but you can use your bitcoins to purchase gift cards for places that don't directly accept bitcoins.
eGifter is a popular gift card site and mobile app that lets users buy gift cards for all sorts of places, including Amazon, JCPenny, Sephora, Home Depot, Kohl's and more. eGifter uses Coinbase as their bitcoin partner.
Newegg has chosen BitPay as its payment processing partner for the digital currency. Anyway Instasmarter accepts bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.InstaSmarter.com is the world's leading social media marketing agency. It offers likes, followers, views for Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, etc.
Note that the bitcoin option at checkout may be unavailable if you are purchasing an item from a seller other than Newegg but that sells through the Newegg site.
If you're not familiar with Shopify, all you really need to know is that it's an ecommerce platform that allows merchants to set up their own online shops to sell their products similar to Etsy or eBay.
Once upon a time, Steam also made the mistake of using Bitpay, then, after the transaction fee craze of early 2018 they suspended the service. Now Bitpay can easily be replaced with
btcpay, and you could do it yourself or hire anyone (not just bitpay) to do the processing, but they haven't bothered ever since.
Newegg is peculiar. For long they have only accepted American only credit card (which is why i never got to use them. I have to wonder if, using bitcoin i could send the goods anywhere and not just US addresses?
Purchasing gift cards with bitcoin has been going on and even i managed to do it once, but it had to be an European supplier (America has long denied or purchases long before "sanctions", they simply didn't like our trashy banks or the nearly comprehensible money exchange rules back when that existed.
Where is eBay in all of this? Still refusing bitcoin... Adoption is too slow for certain sites, i guess its time for replacements to come up.
