Topic: Let's make more companies to accept bitcoin payment. - page 7. (Read 3887 times)

Well for me that is a good idea, many people for this new generation are using technology for better lifestyle. This could really help people to generate income and hassle free transactions.

This is good idea and before hand they already starting this trend. But as to othe countries (specifically the third world country) this is somehow be in a slow process. A few only is familiar with bitcoins and other cryptos and they needed to feed some information how it works. And also the transition from their normal paying method to online e currency is somehow hard to manifest. Although in our country digital mode of payment is used but with using the regular money. So hoping for new way for it.

unfortunately, the problem is with people and not stores,
people using crypto as an investment and not a way of paying for things
I can't remember someone saying "dude look I just bought a new tv with bitcoin"
but I do hear all the time "should I HODL it?" "for how long to hold it?"
"I buy now later the price will moon" etc....

Bitcoin is blockchain technology that created to be decentralized for to all people around the world and to use &  utilized for their needs to serve a specific purpose.
And Bitcoin is a  "peer 2 peer payment network" and not only "peer 2 peer Crypto Stock Exchange  network"
and that  applies to all cryptocurrencies
 

Necessary for bitcoin investors, it is possible to cooperate through bitcoin payments by companies. First of all, the bitcoiners should say the benefits that for these companies, including the benefit of the two parties if they cooperate ... my opinion.

making many companies and online stores accept crypto payments will be easily implemented if government regulations support this, because with the existence of clear regulations, the door to further transactions is already wide open as they say "please do your transaction"

Let us  that are  cryptocurrency enthusiastic build company that will be functioning effectively and accept bitcoin, when others that company owners see it work  they will definitely adopt bitcoin payment.

well this is a good idea but we cannot force them into accepting it for use. Companies are very careful with whatever they get involved in so as not to loose money and thus would like set up a team to closely observe and analyse bitcoin transactions before accepting bitcoin payment. If they are cool with it fine they go ahead and adopt it.

It is easy to request on any company to accept bitcoin on their business but this will not be an easy process.
They need to know first how can they adopt the payment of it to their product or services.
Then they need to have the machine to accept the coin,
Then again, they need to figure out about the tax which is their obligation to government.

I think there are lots of a company now that use bitcoin as a payment gateway, One I know is on 7 eleven that you can instantly cash-in or just pay bills in electricity, water and also other more using BTC. If other companies recognize BTC as fast and anonymous payment it will easy for use crypto users to be able to handle our daily needs.

That's really a good idea but how do you think it will be noticed by the companies? How do we even make them read it? It might just go to spam. I think the better idea is to target the smaller businesses first and talk to the owners or managers about accepting bitcoins on a personal manner rather than email. That way, we will know the answer right away and that we can be sure that our message is sent across.

This is indeed difficult if the OP or us don't have any function in one company. I only think that if there are many cryptocurrency users and they ask every merchant to use cryptocurrency as a payment system, we can easily do this. We only need to convince everyone to use cryptocurrency as a payment system, so every merchant will be interested in what we propose. At least if this happens then many people will begin to obey what we do, human nature is always waiting, they are waiting for others to do something new and if some people have done it they will follow what others have done.

While it is promising to read and hear about people being so proactive in the process of propagating Bitcoin, it is with sad news that it is not gaining much popularity to date maybe due to the suffering of its price since its peak in December 2017. I hope it can maintain a sense of stability at a certain level so it would attract investors to pour in money this time around. Having said this, admittedly, Bitcoin only gained its moment when it soared to almost $20,000. The only way to keep people gambling is to sway them into belief that something BIG is going to happen.

when you want to make a company accept bitcoin payments, bitcoin should have to have clear rules about using cryptocurrency so that it will make all companies accept bitcoin payments and not be subject to money laundering or anything else.

The more companies to accept bitcoin payment will depend upon the request or public demand especially those who have bitcoin or other cryptocurrency in their property and eager to pay the transactions of some companies , it might be true in reality for the near future to come.

And what would you expect from companies if one man send them email with the request of accepting bitcoin as a payment tool? I think it won't work. You'd better create your own company with this feature and show the other how great it is. Only in this case they will implement bitcoin payments.

More and more companies accept bitcoin as a payment tool that shows that bitcoin is accepted as a digital currency, even though the numbers are uneven and more in developed countries. However, it has provided evidence that bitcoin can be used more efficiently and safely. So that in the future more companies are expected to be willing to accept bitcoin.

I don't think sending e-mails to every company you know suggesting to adopt Bitcoin could help in any way unless you have any influence or an investor. That method would work only if you have any function at a company and then you could suggest Bitcoin as a payment method. That's how stuff works, it's either like that or they will adopt it when they see some other made a good profit with Bitcoins.

yea If we continuously requesting or even placed it as a condition to companies that the only way we would buy things from  them is through bitcoin it will indeed increase acceptance rate of bitcoin.

It is cool idea and this will help bitcoin to gain more popular. If more and more companies accept bitcoin , we will be able to purchase our daily needs using bitcoin.

Why not? It's already happening since 2014 or 2013 maybe, and if you just google it you'll find a lot of stores, merchants, companies, etc. that accept bitcoin as payment for their products and services. Below is just an example...
