Bought a supermarket voucher from The Bitcoin Company

How's that service anyway? Been hearing of it recently and I'm seeing wild reward % like 15-20% on some brands. Am I misunderstanding? 15-20% "cash back" (sats back) can't be right ... Can it?

Bought a physical copy of "The Blocksize War" at a Bitcoin meetup in Christchurch (NZ) a couple of weeks ago :)

Well done! Did you get a discount for paying with sats?

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @Kontext 18 Aug

No, but I don't mind, because I know the dude selling them wasn't doing it for the profits anyways, his main mission is just to get some Bitcoin and Bitcoin-adjacent books physically in the hands of New Zealanders, and he's doing it on a very small scale, so his profit margins must be really thin or non-existent anyway

Zaps & monthly CC payments

20 sats \ 3 replies \ @AG OP 19 Aug

CC payments? how are you repaying it with bitcoin? any third party service?

42 sats \ 2 replies \ @nichro 19 Aug

In Canada there's Bitcoin Well & Bull Bitcoin that do it similar.

Go to bill payment, put in amount, pay in sats and they send dollars to your bill/CC

I don't do it all the time but it's a smooth process now compared to before (sell BTC, send Fiat to bank, pay bill)

51 sats \ 1 reply \ @AG OP 19 Aug

Wow... that's fantastic! Do you mind sharing the service name or site? or is an app?

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @nichro 26 Aug

Sorry I forgot to reply. A few exchanges in Canada have that feature (bill payment) - such as Bull Bitcoin & Bitcoin Well.

They may only work for Canada + US, but I'm not sure.

It's really smooth, you just add your payee like in any banking app: can be a credit card, electricity bill, etc. then you say how much you want to pay and get a BTC invoice. Pay it with BTC and they pay your bills for that amount in Fiat.

It's a nice alternative way to try living a bit more on a Bitcoin standard, but also a nice way to "sell BTC". Rather than selling for Fiat, withdrawing to bank, paying bill, you just so it in one step.

As part of them selling the plushy, they added btc checkout which is pretty cool.

That's an useful service I'm personally thinking to switch to... do you use it as backup or is the only sim you are currently using?
