Top 10 Companies Accepting Bitcoin
- Amazon... !
- Expedia. One of the world’s largest travel sites allows its customers to purchase flights, hotels, and other travel accommodations via their partner Coinbase. Some critics will say that Expedia doesn’t really accept Bitcoin because they use a vendor to handle the transaction. But every company in the world operates this way. If you use a Visa or an American Express card to make your purchase, Expedia is going to receive your payment in Dollars from Visa or American Express. Coinbase, just like Visa or American Express, is a commerce platform that just happens to accept Bitcoin and distribute traditional currency.
- Overstock.com Patrick Byrne, who has established himself as one of the world’s leading business voices with his work at Overstock.com, is an adamant supporter of Bitcoin. That is why his company accepts Bitcoin payments on its site and even holds some Bitcoin instead of converting it all to a traditional currency.
- WordPress. One of the world’s largest platforms for web development, WordPress was an early adopter of Bitcoin. Since 2012 they have allowed users to make payments with the currency. In their announcement, they said they were opening their doors to Bitcoin specifically to reach parts of the world where traditional payment networks cannot reach, due to government interference or corporate bureaucracy.
- Microsoft. Bill Gates is no fool. The software giant is well aware of Bitcoins potential, and accepts BTC for all of their products, and services. Microsoft is also building upon the Ethereum platform.
- VRBO. In the new wave of companies that allow people to sell their services direct to consumers using a high tech platform (think Uber, Amazon, etc), VRBO lets its users rent out their houses or apartments on a short term basis to people looking for comfortable accommodations below hotel prices. They also allow their users to arrange for payments using Bitcoin.
