These days everyone is talking about Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency has undergone a dramatic climb of more 1000% in a little over a year and many believe that this is just the beginning. Were you one of the lucky ones who bought a few when they were 50 cents? Ok maybe not, but even if you bought a few months ago you’d still be sitting on a respectable 100% return. In this article I will point out a few places where you can spend your Bitcoins as if they were real money.
Overstock.com Overstock.com has partnered with Coinbase to allow customers to pay with Bitcoin. In an ever evolving retail market it is important for retailers to remain on the cutting edge of customer satisfaction. Overstock.com allows customers to pay for goods at checkout by selecting the pay with Bitcoin option.
Expedia Expedia is one of the world’s largest travel booking sites in the world. They also joined with Coinbase and have been offering customers the option of paying with Bitcoin since 2014. For now, you can only use Bitcoin to book a hotel through Expedia. They hope to soon expand the Bitcoin payment method to flights, car rentals and activity bookings in the near future.
Shopify Shopify is an ecommerce platform that enables merchants to set up their online shops and sell to customers. In recent years this platform has seen a surge in use. Part of this surge in use may be due to their Bitcoin integration. Bitcoin provides instant settlement times as well as zero dollar fees. Many entrepreneurs these days conduct business internationally and Bitcoin provides them a quick way to move funds.
