I saw this story a couple of weeks ago, surely it is just a gimmic at the moment as transaction fees would multiply the price of your meal. Why not be smart about things and get youself a crypto debit card instead? I got my Centra card at the end of December and I bought a pizza using XRP, I bought stuff from ebay using BTC and drinks at a bar using ETH. All with zero transaction fees. I can also take out cash from an ATM anywhere in the world and iwll be using it for travelling next week

It is the future  Smiley

More and more people know Bitcoin. And I'm sure this opportunity is greatly utilized by big food companies like KFC, to enliven the cryptocurrency market and take a little profit from the Bitcoin they collect from their food sales. And I have never bought food with Bitcoin. Maybe the sensation will be different than we pay with real money. I want to try it sometime.

Major (9 Billion USD)  payment provider Stripe has just announced today they stop supporting Bitcoin payments - they conclude it because fewer and fewer are using it, and at the same time fees and transaction times makes it useless as a means of payment. You can see the details on their own website: https://stripe.com/blog/ending-bitcoin-support

Interesting and disappointing at the same time. I think they'd rather let some other dedicated payment processor to handle the bitcoin payments.

Canada has accepted Bitcoin payments to buy KFC chciken and pay by bitcoin payment, that is good inovation for bitcoiner in Canada, they can make payment when buy KFC and pay it by bitcoin, just waiting in another country will be can make payment by bitcoin or not. KFC is the greatest restaurant have give the good service for bitcoiner to make payment by bitcoin and I am so happy if can be there and make payment by bitcoin too.
It's shitty overpriced fried chicken, calm down.

Accepting Bitcoin does not make something amazing.

KFC is desperate to get young people back to buying their chicken, they gave away fried chicken sun screen, they built miniature stores, they have their terrible commercials and commissioned paintings on twitter.


THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN CRYPTOCURRENCY, THEY JUST WANT YOUNG PEOPLE TO BUY THEIR SHITTY CHICKEN.

This is a good news for this platform, Day by day Bitcoin is getting accepted in many renowned platforms so that the usefulness of Bitcoin is becoming high and high. But I don't to spend my Bitcoin for this purpose anymore. Bitcoin is a valuable tool for me, So that I would like to save Bitcoin for the future purpose.

Seems like a pretty interesting thing to me, I like this idea but like how are they managing to do it with the fluctuating BTC prices?
Bitpay, KFC gets Fiat, bitpay exchanges it immediately and market price + fee and retains the fee.

Recently, KFC Canada has accepted Bitcoin payments for a short period of time. However, Bitcoin can only be used to place orders online, and only to purchase a new item called "Bitcoin Bucket". And all this special deal will be handled by Bitpay, a fairly common Bitcoin trading tool. Its really interesting news, I wish that I can also buy chicken with Bitcoin in my coutry.  Roll Eyes

I think as the acceptance of Bitcoins keeps on increasing, we will only see the increase in price.

It sounds interesting, and I hope I can use BTC in KFC to buy Fried chicken.
But there is still a serious problem, and when my deal is confirmed, maybe my Fried chicken is already cold, so it's not good enough. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I think, with such "progress" we can even give BTC to some random beggars and homeless people on their wallets in a couple years. Techo terror. Lips sealed

However just to come to any local point of KFC food and pay bitcoins at the ticket office will not work you can only order a basket from a limited series at home. To make online payments KFC enlisted the support of the Bitpay operator and you can track the current price of the Bitcoin-Basket in btc using a special tracker on facebook. The bucket of chicken itself will cost about 20 Canadian dollars (plus taxes and $ 5 CAD for shipping).

plus a considerably high fee for a bitcoin transaction, or did they menage to get passed it somehow?

An off-topic (but funny, so I will share) thought has occured to me: it seems that KFC will be needing to implement KYC now.

I think this is a step in a great direction for bitcoin, most especially having the KFC brand name behind it. Even though for now its via online payment. If it is a success, of which I think it would be, other major companies will join in.

Last year, Business Insider report showed how difficult it is to spend bitcoin, even with online payments at a restaurant. The restaurant has now closed down. Link: https://twitter.com/businessinsider/status/923287320085766144?lang=en

Hopefully KFC can successfully pull it off!!!
