Hubertus Pharmacy in Bogen now accepts Bitcoin via @OPAGO_PAY. As a modern health center, Hubertus Pharmacy offers much more than just pharmaceutical sales. They provide comprehensive consultations and everyday support, with convenient on-site parking available.
đź“Ť BahnhofstraĂźe 15, 94327 Bogen, Germany
The decision to accept Bitcoin was driven by the ease of using the @OPAGO_PAY LIGHTNING POS Terminal GEN1 and the emerging younger generation of customers. Additionally, the recent move by leading online pharmacies to accept Bitcoin payments also influenced their decision.

Amazing job! Looking forward to paying in a shop with opago.
Do you have any ressources that explain how the opago and its custody model works, so I can use these if I want to recommend opago to a new merchant?
Also would greatly appreciate a directory of onboarded merchants!
reply
@RedRadish688, thank you for your comment. We are non-custodial, and the merchant only needs a Lightning address to receive the payment. For non-custodial wallets, it is recommended to ensure sufficient inbound liquidity so that we can reliably forward the payment. If this is not the case, our node will attempt to forward the payment until inbound liquidity is available again.
If you are interested in working together to orange pill merchants, please feel free to contact us at partnerships@opago-pay.com.

This is the real hard work I was talking in this post about building bitcoin circular economies !
This is how one by one, merchants will start accepting bitcoin. There's no need for complicated solutions to start. A simple offline POS and done. Give them a simple POS device to take your sats easily, not the fucking VISA cards!
You see this @BlokchainB ? Why the bitcoin company is not doing this instead of selling visa cards?
I am really impressed by the work is doing Opago with their POS system.

I do see but saying the bitcoin company isn’t ran by diehard bitcoiners is ridiculous because they are trying to meet where consumers are today.
If I lived in Germany and needed l meds I would go there but unfortunately I don’t. And I don’t have time to run to all the stories I need to live life and beg them to take bitcoin.
Last month a USA company said they take bitcoin for beef. I used them then IBEX got scared and rugged them. I go to the site this month and poof option to pay in bitcoin gone but I still need my beef!
Bitstein said it best once people realize they need bitcoin they will start demanding goods and services for it. But forcing people to take something that is finite is their problem

Here is how is done. I do not see anybody in these videos paying with a VISA card and saying that they used Bitcoin...
and these are just few examples...
reply
I’m not doubting you can use LN in the real world. But most producers of goods and services still don’t accept it. You can’t get everything in life that you need from this list.
I’m always looking to use bitcoin wherever I can. I even bought a laser eyes sleeve over my Amex card when I give it to vendors that says bitcoin is better. But on masse the world isn’t ready yet and it’s okay. I think we need more time.
reply
I am never said that you have to pay ONLY with bitcoin... I said to avoid to use fiat and visa cards and go and pay directly with bitcoin those merchants that accept it.
If there's no merchant around you, then just pay with your regular fiat, that's it, keep your sats. But do not come to me and say that paying with a visa fiat card is helping bitcoin adoption. THAT IS TOTALLY BULLSHIT.

I wasn’t trying to make that argument. I was trying to showcase supporting bitcoin businesses

Congratulations once again! I can sense that within some time your posts here will become lik - " Hi stackers! I am very happy to tell ya all that today we've 10 new merchants." After some time, "we've added 100 merchants today" and so on .... Keep doing it... That's one way to establish Bitcoin circular Economy..
