A new browser extension permits making payments on Amazon with the help of top Cryptocurrencies.
Amazon users can now purchase merchandise with Bitcoin via the Lightning Network because of a brand new startup known as Moon.
According to TechCrunch, the corporate with a flashy name has just released a browser extension which will enable making payments on the biggest e-commerce platform.
You can use any Bitcoin wallet with the Lightning Network support in order to make instant transactions. For instance, Electrum, one of the foremost wide used Bitcoin wallets, currently supports the popular off-chain scaling resolution.
Another option is to link the extension to your BitRoyal Exchange account and create a payment with Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Litecoin while leveraging the API of the number one Cryptocurrency exchange in the USA.
While overstock.com, Newegg and a few other major retailers have already embraced crypto, Amazon is yet to maneuver in this direction. Moon makes the magic happen by converting crypto to fiat without charging further fees.
As of now, the service is only available in the US, but Moon soon plans to expand to other countries.
Back in May, It is reported that Flexa’s payment app Spedn allowed Whole Foods, Crate and Barrel, and other brick-and-mortar retailers to accept crypto payments.
