Our team has been a huge supporter of bitcoin since early 2013. We feel that eCommerce will be revolutionized by the use of digital currencies such as bitcoin. Consequently, when we launched, we decided to go “crypto-only” for checkout. We believe the best way to promote cryptocurrencies is by using them both as a currency and as a store of value! It made sense to us that our customers would be enthusiastic to use crypto, in order to secure their crypto holdings.

Surprisingly, a large segment of the community did not share this ideal. After a significant number of requests from our users, it is apparent to us that people want to use their Credit Cards to purchase hardware wallets. While we are disheartened by this, we have decided to adopt Credit Card payments as a method of payment.

What about Paypal?

At this time, we do not plan to offer Paypal as a checkout method.

Do you still Accept Bitcoin/Altcoins?

Of course! Stuff Technologies will continue to push adoption of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a means of payment until the bitter end. We hope that all of our future users also consider using crypto as opposed to credit cards in the future.

It’s up to all of us to encourage adoption. Using your coins to spend on products you would have bought with Credit Cards is the best way to support those merchants who also want to spread adoption.

Thank you!
