I think what is at work here is some sort of Artificial Intelligence program. And I think it is cool.
You know in the world we live today where everyone is in a hurry to do something, this makes shopping fun and less stressful.
The icing on the cake is the different payment options that co-exists. This is how it is suppossed to be. This is how I want it to be. Not one toppling over the other. I hope to have the sort of experience someday.
Topic: Paying bills with digital currency cards, gift cards (Read 330 times)
facilitating every transaction is the dream of all consumers, really happy is the country that has adopted crypto in its shopping center, we don't deny that it is technological progress that supports all of this, and the government should also provide a simple space for crypto adoption in its country so that it is sustainable
I couldn't agree more! It's great to see more and more businesses adopting digital currencies like bitcoin. I believe that as more businesses adopt digital currencies, they will become more mainstream and widely accepted. But, it's not just about businesses accepting digital currencies. It's also important for individuals to understand the value and potential of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The more people learn about it, the more they will be inclined to use it as a payment method. This is definitely the future of payments, and I hope to see it being widely accepted soon.
Of course, I don’t think people will start using cryptocurrencies as a currency if they won’t realized it’s value and potentials in the first place. I bet once they know that it’s more profitable as an investment, people will chose to save and invest crypto rather than spending it. But with global adoption hopefully in the future, cryptocurrencies should be used by that time not just a sole investment but definitely as a currency like what it is designed originally.
Excellent topic.
I remember working in an hotel as a receptionist. A customer booked for a room and paid with bitcoin. He didn't inform me that he paid with crypto, so i taught it was a normal bank transaction.
I tried checking for his payment, but didn't receive it on time. The transaction came very late after waiting patiently.
My main idea here is that for crypto currency transactions to run smoothly, Crypto Companies and local banks should figure out ways in which this transaction runs very fast.
Because, the more in delay of every transaction, the more users loses interest.

OP, I can see you are a Nigerian and the cashless policy initiated by CBN is making people to look for alternative sources of payment other than the traditional fiat and bank transfer. I always admire it when I see businesses coming up multiple means of payment as people can opt to used BTC, ETH, USDT, gift card etc. in place of the government-control currencies and this does not only make things easier for the customers but it also help in the growth of the business.
I happened to use, a few years ago, a very famous service that allowed me to pay for online goods in bitcoin at an advantageous rate.
Unfortunately some users used the same service to cash out dirty money. And this gave me some headache!

About a month ago I was searching an option to buy an antivirus for lower price than asked. Several platforms offer such option (dont know how it really work, do they use stolen credit cards to pay for digital products, payment from other region or share their accounts) and had option to pay in crypto, or in digital currency like Webmoney, Steam money, PayPal and etc. What amazed me, that paying directly in crypto was more expensive than turning crypto into fiat and pay or deposit amount to virtual card and with it.
This is innovation and this can solve the problem of longer lines mostly in holiday season because we know that there are a lot of people purchasing things but i havent heard it in our place but i am hoping that we will have one as well as paying using cryptocurrency. Though it is not legal or illegal in our country we still expect that the government will check on it
Yeah. Paying bills using digital currency cards or gift cards is so convenient and it is also a good gift idea. Payment using digital currency is not that widespread yet because it is a new concept and many businesses may not understand yet how it works or how to adapt it into their existing payment systems. Also, some businesses may be hesitant to accept digital currency because of the potential risk of losing its value.

I walk into a shopping mall and I saw simplicity of life, that's the mall makes things easier for customers. There is several terminal machines and electronics device that calculate items as soon as you pick anything and before you're done shopping the electronics machine knew the total price already. Payment was excellently quick and sharp, you made payments with digital currency (bitcoin and ETH), gifts cards.
But you've cash like neat dollars you can still pay directly with machines or sales reps around. It will be nice see people living the streets of the world with bitcoin digital pay cards.

Yeah! I believe Amazon has started a couple of similar stores in Europe where you won't have to stand in the payment queue. You just add items to your basket and leave the store. The payment will be deducted from your Amazon wallet. But I don't know if such innovative solutions are available for crypto payers or not. I guess not!
There is an alternate way to pay through cryptocurrency. There are websites like Bitrefil or Coinsbee from where you can buy digital gift cards from various brands and use them in retail stores or in their e-commerce platforms. I have personally used services from Bitrefil so I have found them useful. But their fees are somewhat higher than the market price of the coin. But yes, that's what you are paying for convenience.
In other words, we are no longer talking about the anonymity and decentralization that cryptocurrency brings. Cryptocurrencies provide several advantages beyond anonymity and decentralization, including faster transaction processing times, reduced transaction fees, as well as increased security and privacy for users.

I think with the rise of e-commerce and the growing number of businesses accepting digital currency and gift cards as payment, it's no surprise that more and more people are taking up this option.
The concept of paying bills with digital currency and gift cards is an innovative idea that is gaining popularity and this payment option offers many advantages, such as better security, faster transactions and greater convenience.

Yes, you know or not. As technology advances, we will likely see more innovative payment options in the future. However, it is important to consider the limitations of these payment methods and ensure that traditional forms of payment remain accessible and available to everyone.
However, it is important to note that while digital currency and gift cards have many advantages, they are not without limitations. For example, not all merchants accept these payment options, and they may not be as widely accepted as traditional payment methods.
I haven't tried this kind of payment method in our place but at our local shopping stores, they have already been accepting selected cryptocurrencies as means of payment. it's nice to see such improvement these days and maybe we might see more stores in the future accepting bitcoins as if it's just some normal currency. We are still in the early stage of bitcoins and we might gonna see more of these kinds of content in the next months I'm sure if there will be many people who gonna use this kind of payment, it would be the best thing for Bitcoin and if they give freebies while paying with digital currency cards, I'm sure it will become a trend.
It is possible in countries where cryptocurrency is legal. Developed countries are becoming digital day by day and their activities are becoming digital.But countries where cryptocurrency is illegal are just dreams.I have noticed that some countries have introduced these systems.I have seen many people shopping with Bitcoin in several shopping malls. This system exists in other countries like the ATM machine of our country.So digital systems save time and make payments very easy. But this program can be expensive to get this benefit in all countries.
The Bitcoin dream is slowly but surely becoming a reality. The dream is not really to replace fiat. It is almost impossible to replace fiat. Governments will not simply give way to a digital currency which is decentralized and made by an unknown person. The dreams is for Bitcoin to be accepted as a currency alongside fiat, that businesses accept it and people use it for payment.
It's great that you have something like that in your place wherever it may be. That is also slowly taking shape here in mine as well. One day, it will happen everywhere.

if Amazon and Paypal start accepting Bitcoin it is over for the haters.
They need to implement Lightning Network, otherwise no one will want to pay a few dollars fee for a single shop visit, and the merchant will have to deal with potential double spending scams if they accept unconfirmed transactions. This is if we are talking about accepting actual Bitcoin and not some custodial IOU like what PayPal is doing.
Paypal and amazon only add bitcoin, not implementing bitcoin technology into their network.
So it makes no difference paypal accepts bitcoin or not.

It means that we are still early right now. If you can imagine this right now, I believe it will happen in the future, just a matter of time.But you've cash like neat dollars you can still pay directly with machines or sales reps around.

Technology is evolving too fast and I believe as time goes by, technology is giving us more to live comfortable. The best example of that is Bitcoin, a digital currency.
The best example I believe in the future that will be a real-life use case is the lightning network of Bitcoin.
The world is advancing so fast. It's amazing to see such technology nowadays. It will become more advance as day goes by. Technology makes our life easier and this is a great example for that. And in that modern world, Bitcoin will have a major impact. We can see it already with this little events.
I will not be surprised if Bitcoin becomes the world's legal currency and accepted all over the world as one. It will take time, but there's a really good possibility for this to happen.

Knowledge is the key to advancement because there's no time and we need to adapt to the modern world, everything is changing with time. Payment method should include some digital process like accepting Bitcoin as general means of payment. Bitcoin improving with standardized form and businesses that accept it as means of payment have already welcome the digital money age. Some people doesn't like stress, like going to the bank ATM machine to withdraw cash before paying for something, whereas you can pay online with just transferring your Bitcoin to another address responsible for the bills.
