Amazon does not accept bitcoin directly. One major reason is the asset\u2019s volatility. The price of a single bitcoin fluctuates on a daily basis – and this is obviously a bit of a problem for an e-commerce website like Amazon. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Consider the following example. Let\u2019s say you buy a product for $12 when bitcoin is $5,000 per coin. What happens if bitcoin falls to $4,500, even if only for a few minutes? That\u2019s right. Amazon would stand to lose money – which means that they can\u2019t take payments this way. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Will Amazon change their minds about the cryptocurrency in the future? It\u2019s hard to tell. In 2014, an Amazon spokesperson said they didn\u2019t feel it was \u201cright for [the customers\u201d]. Of course, this was before 2017\u2019s crypto revolution – and things have since changed. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For example, Amazon now owns a long list of crypto-related domain names. While this doesn\u2019t guarantee anything, it certainly does mean that Amazon is aware of and interested in cryptocurrency. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Having said all that, there <\/span>are<\/span><\/i> meaningful ways to buy Amazon products using bitcoin. Read on to learn more. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Buying Amazon items using bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Although Amazon doesn\u2019t accept bitcoin directly, you can easily use the cryptocurrency to buy up amazon gift cards<\/a> that you <\/span>can<\/span><\/i> use on the website. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how that works. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s say you decide to trade crypto for Amazon gift cards using CoinCola. All you have to do is register with the OTC marketplace, find a vendor with an exchange rate you like, and complete a trade to get a gift card.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Afterwards, you can quickly and easily add your gift card balance to your Amazon account balance and start buying whatever you want. You can even pay for shipping this way, meaning that you can use bitcoin to shop on the website – albeit indirectly. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Important tips for staying safe and saving money<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Before you do anything, understand 2 things. First, buying and selling gift cards online is convenient – but only when you\u2019re safe. Never buy gift cards from strangers or through websites you\u2019re not 100% are secure. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The reason is that a gift card can only be used once. If you give someone your bitcoin and get a card that\u2019s already been spent, you\u2019re never going to get your money back once the funds have been released. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two features can help here. First, there\u2019s <\/span>escrow<\/a>: <\/span><\/i>a mechanism that stops the other party from getting your money unless you verify that the gift card worked for you. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The second is <\/span>dispute resolution<\/span><\/i>, wherein a third party – like a website representative – helps set things straight during any possible argument. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One service that has both features and multiple sellers and buyers dealing in iTunes gift cards is our website: CoinCola. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019re secure, we have a large international customer base, and with over 100,000 monthly transactions, we\u2019re one of the best places to buy and sell gift cards, period. <\/span><\/p>\n
