Topic: Adode does not accept Bitcoin payments (Read 359 times)
I sent them a Tweet. It'd be nice to continue focusing on adoption:
Accept Bitcoin or not is their decission, the one that you talked to is just a staff, they can not decide to accept Bitcoin for his company that he is working for so that you can do anything much with this.
Yes. I asked how to get on their board agenda and she did not know.
My thought is it would benefit the entire community to have these companies involved and I would like to encourage a coordinated effort for the e-service providers to accept BTC. It will make the network more secure (regulation) and increase price (change in demand curve).
I have recently unbanked myself and Adobe does not accept BTC. I can use my BitPay card, but that's just ridiculous. I offered them $600 in Bitcoin for a year and they said, "Bitcoin is not money. Let me explain to you about money. Can I use money from Russia in the United States." I told him, "yes, if it's in Bitcoin."
They don't accept Bitcoin. It would be helpful if they did.
If anybody wants to advocate for Adobe to accept Bitcoin, which I think we should really focus on getting as many big companies as possible to accept it with S.1271, here is there phone number. Simply ask them how to make a payment with Bitcoin and that you would like to pay:

The title sounds something like oh my god, the lion does not eat vegetables 
Bitcoin is not treated as a currency and is not accepted as a valid payment mode by most of the business giants yet, leaving a select few.
However appreciate your effort to try to convince them to use Bitcoin as a payment mode. This awareness that buyers are looking for an alternative mode will one day convince them to accept Bitcoins.

Here's the thing that I've said about companies, they're not going to change unless people just aren't going to be buying their services.
Man, that's so difficult because you're right. I want their product really bad. I've used it 14 years and it's a part of my portfolio.They're only going to change if they stand to lose money by not changing ...
Their response was "it's only $500". So, maybe there is a $50,000 company who could offer a BTC payment to Adobe?
or they stand to get a ton of money with changing.
Lower fees and no charge backs increase their profits. They could also reduce their data insurance premiums ... if exclusively used "internet money." Think about it, you're probably going to be using Adobes services with or without the Bitcoin payments, all you're going to do is probably just go ahead and use a credit card, debit card, or any other traditional source of money.
I'd load up my BitPay card and pay that way because I'm not about to exploit a hacked version. I believe in the company and want to pay. I just don't think they should have my private key. They're not going to change even with a petition, only if we all stand together and don't buy Adobe protects, and even at that they may not even notice us.
I agree on the petitions. I set up an order, get to the "checkout" page and call confused asking why an "Internet company does not accept Internet money." I ask them if they want my money because I want to give it to them, I just don't want to give them my credit card info because it gets stolen. I try to be nice and direct them to BitPay or exploring an integrated API.I appreciate the comments. I really think we, as a community, should focus on the tech/internet companies to accept BTC.
Some that come to mind include:
- Sony PSN
- VistaPrint
Does anybody else have ideas of companies that should accept BTC? Any strategic thoughts on the subject?

The bitcoin community is a little bit everywhere, It could cost a lot to call international phone numbers. It would be better If someone could create a petition on change.org and post it here so people sign, It's probably the easiest way.
Good point. Thanks!
Here is all of their contact information, globally:

Getting a company like this on board with BTC not only makes for a convenient way to pay for software, but makes the BTC network more secure by increasing its footprint.
EDIT: One of my talking points was that it would make it easier for them to accept global payments without the need to worry about international wire transfers, etc.
..... I offered them $600 in Bitcoin for a year and they said, "Bitcoin is not money. Let me explain to you about money. Can I use money from Russia in the United States." I told him, "yes, if it's in Bitcoin." ......
Well said and appreciate your logic. But you cannot wake up a person who just pretends to sleep. These big players know what Bitcoin is, know everything about it, unofficially investing secretly in Bitcoins, but will never accept it in public. There are some who have officially started accepting bitcoins and very soon all the others will have to follow suit, but have to wait and watch for a while.
