Just booked a hotel, works flawlessly and much faster than using a creditcard. They use coinbase as backend.
Sweet - looks like it hasn't been fully integrated onto their other domains just yet (eg. Expedia.co.uk etc)
But it's on their main site Expedia.com
Enjoy your holiday LeMiner! Will make my hotel bookings via Expedia too.
They have a market cap of over
$9.5Bil in 2013 making it the largest company to accept Bitcoin to date. Though suspect Ebay/Paypal will follow shortly.
2014/2015 in retrospect, will be seen as great merchant growth/acceptance for Bitcoin adoption.
Thanks! It was a hotel I had to book anyway for a trip that was already planned. So why not pay in bitcoins?
. I used the main site (expedia.com) with prices listed in dollars even tough I would normally use euros. I calculate bitcoins worth using the dollar course anyway.
Coinbase did not wait for a confirmation (probably because it wasn't too expensive). I even got 2 dollars discount as I paid just when the course dropped a bit.
Good man - cheers for the input, always great to hear from someone who has used their new implementation. Looks like their developers have done a smooth job!
Reading through their T/C's, would recommend you to open a Coinbase account in the unlikely event of a refund request.
With the index price drop today, i think you got a slight discount too?
