Major Online Merchants that Accept Bitcoin


Bitcoin was created in 2009. It was not until 2014 some major etailers started accepting Bitcoin as a payment method.

The transaction required to send Bitcoin and have the transaction confirmed had increased dramatically in year 2017. Use Bitcoin as a transaction currency is no longer as practical as before due to high transaction fee. However, the number of stores that accepts Bitcoin is still increasing. We compiled a list of online stores that accept Bitcoin, Local stores or stores that do not have good credibility are excluded from this page.

Current Bitcoin protocol limits number of transactions can be done in one second to single digit. Therefore, Bitcoin is not ideal for payment if used by too many shoppers at the same time. Transactions may be stuck or the transaction fee may be too costly for shoppers. Regardless, more and more online stores announced to accept Bitcoin as this digital currency become more known.

There are alternative ways to buy stuff online with Bitcoin. One way of purchasing any merchant with Bitcoin is to use a Visa or Master debit card funded by Bitcoin. Another way is to purchase a gift card using Bitcoin, then use the gift card to pay for the merchandise. There are at least 2 online gift card merchants currently accept Bitcoin.
