Too bad they don't accept it directly at the checkout, instead you've got to go through that process of funding your account first, then pay using your account funds.

Still a great thing though

OP, how did you find that link?

Searching their knowledge base doesn't turn up any results.

They're going to have a lot of different pages to update for this news:

How can I add funds to my Namecheap account?

You can add funds using your credit card (Visa, MasterCard or AmEx), PayPal or Google Checkout.

I wonder how EFF feels about their own bitcoin decisions now.

Their position as a mainstream DC thinktank is secure as long as they keep hating on Bitcoin.
