Taking Steem to over 50,000 vendors in more than 180 countries | merchant services
How great would it be to use Steem to directly pay for products and services online? WE CAN!!
Not only is this super cool and helps build brand awareness for both Steem and website owners but it also contributes to helping improve volatility and liquidity in the Steem economy long term. Website owners also benefit from accepting cryptocurrencies with cheaper fees, no chargebacks, fraud protection, faster payments, more exposure and website traffic potentially leading to more $$$ I strongly believe we are moving towards an online world where customers will want to chose how they pay, businesses will need to accommodate this if they want to have a competitive edge.
There are a lot of merchant services out there for cryptocurrencies I have personally used/tested many mostly for #bitcoin but when it comes to simplicity for developers, website owners and end users coinpayments.net offers a great service that I am currenly setting up with my own two websites.
What I LOVE about coinpayments.net is they have pre built plugins for wordpress, drupal, opencart, magento, prestashop, zencart and more! These platforms alone cover most the internet. With an easy setup website owners can be accepting payments in Steem in no time!
Currently coinpayments.net has over 50,000 vendors onbaod in more than 180 countries and is growing by around 5,000 new vendors each month. These vendors too can start accepting Steem instantly helping Steem get on the payment map across the web.
almost there...
perhaps a little premature for this
Perhaps but this industry moves fast..very fast
Yes, i agree with you on that @mandax. But at the moment, there're still many uncertainties over here. We'll have to follow and observe the community very very closely. But definitely, the potential is very high for this to work out :)
