Buying more real world goods with Bitcoin: eGifter

At Coinbase we’re constantly striving to make Bitcoin more usable. One aspect of usability of Bitcoin is its liquidity to everyday products in the real world.

While there’s been good progress in merchant onboarding in Bitcoin, some portals offer immediate liquidity to many everyday vendors at once. eGifter is a great example of this — with one integration with Coinbase you can now buy products at some of the most popular stores in the US with just a click or two. Their iOS and Android apps allow you to convert your Bitcoin in store and spend your Bitcoin on the go. Sample retailers include CVS, Gamestop, Banana Republic, and Barnes and Noble.

Go forth and close the loop on Bitcoin!
