Spending-bitcoin.com - The biggest directory of online stores accepting Bitcoin!

[SpendingBitcoin]

We are excited to introduce you to Spending-Bitcoin.com, the biggest directory of online stores accepting Bitcoin! We currently have listed 1,012 online stores.

What is Spending-Bitcoin.com?

We are aiming to be the largest, and most up-to-date, directory of online stores accepting Bitcoin. Most of the websites we could find are either very outdated or they are missing a lot of websites, which is why we decided to build this directory. We are offering:

• Lightning Network support
• No advertisments
• No referral/affiliate links
• No storage of user data
• No shitcoins

What's in it for us?

Nothing! We've built this website out of love for Bitcoin and to help spread adoption. We have no plans to monetize our website by placing advertisements or selling user data (we're looking at you mr. Zuckerberg!). In fact, we've built a custom analytics system that allows us to track user behaviour on our website without storing any of the user's data.

How can you add a website?

Anyone can submit new websites. All you need to do is enter a valid URL (no referral links!) and hit the 'submit' button. Our website automatically generates a website title, description, avatar and banner for you, making the submission process as simple as possible!



What if a website stops accepting Bitcoin or shuts down?

If you run into a website that stopped working, isn't accepting Bitcoin anymore, turns out to be a scam, or any other reason, all you need to do is hit the 'report' button. Enter the reason why you are reporting a website and hit the 'submit report button'.



Feel free to start adding your favorite webshops and we'd love to hear your feedback!

Seems like an interesting site, I would recommend that you add a picture to each of the companies/products. It doesn't look nice when you see projects/companies without pictures. Also, there are some minor grammar issues. (Some words should be capitalized etc)

[SpendingBitcoin]

Congrats on your website

Thanks!

Thank you for the feedback! Our website generates the title, description, logo and banner automatically. It pulls all information from the website itself. If a website is poorly built (not meaning to insult anyone) we can't automatically generate the above. We are adding the logos etc. manually but that is a slow and time consuming process. Some websites don't have a logo so we'll have to use a placeholder. Same for the grammar issue, the text is all pulled from the websites. We'll try to fix everything we run into!

I just saw your website and was really excited to find many online stores under one roof.  Suberb.

Can you tell me if the listing on your site is free and also do you check if the sites listing on Spending-bitcoin are trusted ones only ?

Thanks for the compliment! Listing websites on our website is absolutely free. Anyone can submit new websites at the bottom of the page. All we do is check to see if the submission meets our requirements (no referral link, no obvious scams etc).

Nice website, thank you! Maybe you will consider some time later filtering by country as well? It will be very helpful for some categories like "Food", for example.

[Krislaw]

I browsed the website on both my mobile phone and PC and I'm going to say that it has a nice and friendly view for both.
I made some submissions too and I hope to see them among the list soon.

[Stack23]

I like your site so much that i browsed it all day long.
I have also wear your Site URL as a personal text and signature so i could spread it as much as i can , voluntarily.

[smyslov]

You should actively promote this directory, this is a good resource for those who wants to use their Bitcoin, I like it when it's easy for website owners and online store owners to submit their site, I hope you will not offer a premium listing, so all shops will have an equal promotion, we need more directory like this that promote merchants that uses Bitcoin maybe other coins can follow too.

[DarkDays]

Are you going to start removing links that turn out to be for scam sites?

Seems like there isn't any moderations practices in place really, anybody can submit a link and have it featured on the site.

Maybe there should be some sort of community moderation feature?

You can report it if you do find a link which is suspicious and a possible scam.Theres a report button as mentioned earlier.
I do hope im not too late for that Ledger nano s giveaway.

In fact, we've built a custom analytics system that allows us to track user behaviour on our website without storing any of the user's data.

I recently designed the same thing for BPIP.  My system forgets every IP after 24 hours, then it is considered a new visitor.  I would be interested in knowing what you are doing. 

[Stedsm]

Interesting website with all the needed stuff to help us get complete information on how and where to spend BTC. Can you do an extra part on my request? As I'm from India, I don't really see any stores or places accepting BTC nearby me or maybe I'm not aware of it. Just to solve this, is it possible for you to classify these websites into which website serves where?

And about the Ledger Nano S Contest,

Thanks for the suggestion, most of the websites ship worldwide so it's shouldn't be a big issue. We'll look into it to see if we can add it without messing up the UI.

I browsed the website on both my mobile phone and PC and I'm going to say that it has a nice and friendly view for both.
I made some submissions too and I hope to see them among the list soon.

Thanks for making submission! We've only had to decline a few entries (like news websites) because they weren't accepting Bitcoin payments. We're still working on making the website even more mobile-friendly.

We're glad you like it! Thank you so much for the support.

Thanks, we're doing the best we can. We have a few plans in store to gain more attention. There will be no premium listings or any other form of paid content. Anyone can add their own website, as long as they accept BTC/Lightning payments.

Are you going to start removing links that turn out to be for scam sites?

Seems like there isn't any moderations practices in place really, anybody can submit a link and have it featured on the site.

Maybe there should be some sort of community moderation feature?

Each page has a report button in case a website stops working, stops accepting Bitcoin, turns out to be a scam or any other reason. We will receive a notification of each report so we'll try to act on it as fast as we can.

Thanks for explaining this to DarkDays. There is still plenty of time to enter the contest .

Our web developer is currently working on a Medium article to explain our system. We'll post it here once the article is ready.

As we stated before, most of the websites are shipping worldwide so it shouldn't be an issue where they are located. We're looking into the possibilities of adding such a feature.

Getting bigger by the day.  Well done guys !

Thanks! We'll continue to develop the website and add more features . Luckily we've received quite a few submissions already and the traffic stats are exceeding our expectations!

[o_e_l_e_o]

most of the websites ship worldwide so it's shouldn't be a big issue.

Sure, but costs can sometimes be prohibitive. International shipping, plus any taxes that the receiver might have to pay, can sometimes run in to hundreds of dollars worth, which makes it completely non-viable for most online commerce.

Each page has a report button in case a website stops working, stops accepting Bitcoin, turns out to be a scam or any other reason. We will receive a notification of each report so we'll try to act on it as fast as we can.

This is great, but before I spend bitcoin on any new site I'm always going to check out any online reviews I can find. Perhaps adding links for each store (where they exist) to relevant review sites such as Yelp, Trustpilot, etc. would be nice.

We have no plans to monetize our website by placing advertisements or selling user data (we're looking at you mr. Zuckerberg!)

You've made a great site, and I've already found a couple of new stores I might spend some bitcoin at in the future. I really hope you stay active long term; however, many similar sites that have come before you have eventually withered out and died. How are you going to continue to fund you servers and bandwidth requirements, particularly if, as you say, traffic is starting to exceed expectations? Donations?

We are already working on a rating system for Spending-Bitcoin.com users. Most websites are showing their reviews on their frontpage so we prefer not to add more links to our pages, since we want to keep it as clean and simple as possible.

We plan on accepting donations in the future. We chose not to accept donations from the start, since we do not want to give the impression that we are doing this for the money. We love Bitcoin so we plan on stay active for years .

[buwaytress]

Definitely need a new listing site. Great to see this effort. Almost everything I try to use as you say is outdated, my suggestion also is to use a geographic categorisation (by country maybe, or by where they ship to). I got a whole lot of sites from my country that mostly, when I visited, actually either no longer accept BTC or the people who run the shop don't know how to operate it.

One more thing: might be a good idea to list the payment processor. As in, Antonoupoulos using BTCPay Server and thuisbezorg using BitPay.

Another thing, I think the effort needs to be spread out, or somehow linked to Google or some other big service like that because the moment you stop updating, you get yet another site that becomes old and outdated.

[Lucius]

As we stated before, most of the websites are shipping worldwide so it shouldn't be an issue where they are located. We're looking into the possibilities of adding such a feature.

I would also like to see where each site is located because some things just aren't worth buying because of the pretty expensive shipping, customs, and VAT costs. In some cases, goods purchased in the US and shipped to the EU are more expensive then if we buy the same thing in EU.

As for the site itself, I can say that it is a really great project, and as far as I can see the number of links is constantly increasing. I will definitely do my best to check some categories and maybe submit some new links.

At first glance I notice that in the category "Hosting" is not listed https://www.steadyturtle.com/ which is a very well known hosting company on this forum for years. Of course, they accept Bitcoin as a means of payment.
