FAQ

Why are we doing this?
Big banks and credit cards aren't designed to help small businesses thrive. Bitcoin is. We are passionate Bitcoiners excited to see bitcoin adoption in the City of Champions (and beyond!). No catch, just excitement to spend bitcoin at your store.

How do I let customers know I accept Bitcoin?

Display "Bitcoin Accepted Here" signs at your business.
Mention it on your website and social media channels.
List your business on Bitcoin directories like Satmap and BTC Map. (links above)

How do I convert Bitcoin to Canadian dollars?
Bitcoin processors like Bitcoin Well can automatically change Bitcoin payments into Canadian dollars and send it to your bank account with an e-transfer. This way, your customer can pay in bitcoin, and you get Canadian dollars directly to your bank account.
