GAW / Josh Garza discussion Paycoin XPY xpy.io ION ionomy. ALWAYS MAKE MONEY :)

They allow us to do this, as long we don’t do advertising with their names.

This is the most interesting of the bunch, given the coinfire context.

Obviously the whole plugin idea with HTML injection is very fragile, and certainly not scalable to "hundreds of thousands" of merchants, so that's probably going to be covered by the debit card. Why bother with the plugin? Discounts? Is Amazon really going to give GAW a discount for paying with... what exactly? How is Amazon getting the cash?

My guess is it will be just like with Hashlets - "always profitable" and "maintenance fees that go down over time." It is a promise something he **hopes** will be true in the future. Once Amazon comes around and agrees to do a deal with King Garza, THEN the savings can (maybe) get passed (in part) to the consumer... I doubt that will be on day one.

I'd guess "never". Given how hell-bent Amazon is on maintaining its own full stack (everything from warehouses full of Chinese trinkets to digital content to fresh produce to phones and tablets to cloud computing to - yes, payment processing) there's a snowball's chance in hell they would partner with a third party for something like this. So they might let it slide while it's not worth the attention of their "legal teams" but I think this is very very thin ice. Not sure about Walmart and others, maybe there's a niche somewhere.

FYI, but Amazon does extensive analytics around everything that shows up on their website (from every single link, to text, image, product, etc). Everything is placed in a certain place and for a certain reason. Someone messing with their site and html is probably not something they'd be too happy with.

You can be damn sure that if they catch wind of this, and they arn't happy (takes away Prime revenue, causes more support calls, etc) they break it in a second.

Its a plug in for your browser, I don't expect the HT crowd to know the difference, but at least a few of the more tech savvy here should. As for Amazon, If you want to place your order through a third party browser plug in that converts your whatever coin to $$$$$'s that's your problem. Their business if fulfilling orders that are paid for, if you disable tracking and the ability to get a refund again that's your problem. I can't see a single reason to use any crypto plugin to shop on any online store. I can sell BTC on coinbase and buy whatever I want the cash goes right to my checking account.

Precisely... that's how I do it. Like many have said why would anyone even really need paycoin or any other coin? and we have BTC now and a means of exchange with direct deposit. Use off of debit card,, bam your done. lol Cool

But I can give Josh a commission and a chance to profit from converting my BTC, and I have no tracking, or refunds, or insurance, or arbitrage for lost/damaged shipments; the more I think about. Who am I kidding, I really hope nobody is that stupid.
