Crypto payment options
If necessary you can pay bills online or in person. Although, in both situations you need an e-wallet application. Then, we will see how to pay bills with crypto.
QR code
QR codes make it easy to pay from a crypto currency e-wallet app on your smartphone (including the Coinbase app for Android or iOS). Simply scan the QR code and it will pre-fill the recipient chosen crypto address and the requested payment amount. Once you send the transaction, the payment is complete.
If for some reason you can’t find the QR code at the store, you can go to the checkout to ask for it.
Bank slip
If you are purchasing online, you can choose a bank slip as a payment method. It corresponds to the payment to be made each month, with the full amount of the purchase being paid in installments. It is common to use the payment voucher for high value purchases, such as: cars, motorcycles, household appliances, among others. Once you receive your bank slip, you will be able to pay for it with cryptocurrency.
Before anything else, you have to access any website that allows you to pay your bank slip with digital currencies. Now, you will see some examples of them: PagueComBitcoin, BitBol and Kamoney. To pay your bank slip, it is required to inform its code and then, deposit the total crypto amount. Just to remind you, this type of payment method is more common in Brazil.
