So far I know Amazon.com has startes to take payment with btc. I want to purchase some stuff using btc. Can you please share the payment process using btc in amazon.com?
as others have mentioned, they don't accept BTC directly. they also recently changed their gift card policies so that
you can no longer buy gift cards through gyft and egifter.
there is one solution: the copay wallet (
https://copay.io)
there is a service built into the wallet to buy amazon gift cards. it works great---just used it the other day. one word of warning: you have to set your miner's fee to "normal" or higher, and it's a
very high fee. it's totally overpaying. i paid over 100 satoshi/byte last time.
the upside is it's instant; no waiting for confirmations.
Correct, Gyft and Egifter doesn't seem to work as of now due to Amazon's new policies. Although I think one person mentioned that egifter had a loophole where you were able to gift yourself a GC, and then swap that GC to Amazon. But it's a hassle, and we don't know if that loophole is fixed. I don't know why OP said that Amazon started to accept bitcoin payments, though.
If you download the Copay or Bitpay app, then you should be able to purchase AGCs natively there still. Since Bitpay is a trusted company, it's your safest bet. You'll probably get a bit less than market rate, however.
If you are willing to take some risk, you could use Paxful to purchase GCs. Put up a buy advertisement for Amazon GCs, and make sure that you filter out all the obvious scammers. You'll get pretty good rates at a high risk of fraud. I personally think that purse.io would work better, since they have this $10k fraud reimbursement fund IIRC, and the discounts are still pretty steep.
