So you work remotely for a company that’s decided to offer crypto-based perks to its distributed team members using Quidli and suddenly you find yourself holding some bitcoin. After finally getting over the novelty of crypto, you’ve probably asked yourself, “OK, so now what?” Well, the good news is you can now shop online with your crypto directly from your Quidli account.

Bidali x Quidli

“How can I use my crypto?” is the #1 question we’ve been getting from customers and their team members since Day 1. Not surprisingly, HODLing isn’t something most people want to do; neither is playing crypto day trader. And so that’s why we’re enabling team members who receive crypto perks on Quidli to actually spend their Bitcoin, Ether and Dai.

By integrating crypto e-commerce application Bidali, users can now instantly exchange their crypto for online gift cards and credit at hundreds of brands and vendors across the world — simply select the geography of your choice, the brand or vendor you’re interested in, and then purchase the credit amount in fiat that you intend to pay using crypto.

Different strokes for different folks

For many first-time crypto recipients, it’s the ‘currency’ part of ‘cryptocurrency’ that’s attractive. After all, what’s the point of calling something money if you can’t spend it? Not everyone is looking to make long-term investments, and that’s fair. As we’ve seen before, for some people, 10,000 BTC to buy and eat two pizzas today can be more valuable than holding in speculation for years in hopes of an early retirement.

Purchases can be made directly on Quidli via integration of the Bidali widget

With this new online shopping feature, we’ve made spending crypto online simple, fast, and reliable — in a matter of clicks, you can convert your crypto to credit at brands and vendors across more than 150 countries.

And for those who prefer HODLing? Well, they can go continue to do so, no problems at all.

So start spending (if you want to)

At Quidli, we strive to make crypto perks more convenient and stress free for both companies and workers. In short, thanks to our latest integration with Bidali, crypto recipients on Quidli can now buy gifts cards, credit and mobile top-ups from hundreds of brands worldwide. So you can now HODL, send remittances to anyone in the world, and or go online shopping; all without anyone stopping you. Welcome to the future of company perks.
