pay for your Amazon purchases with
0:01
Bitcoin let me show you how it
0:14
works hey Dave Taylor here again and
0:16
this time I want to talk about Bitcoin
0:18
but I don't really want to talk about
0:19
Bitcoin which is this really interesting
0:21
cyber alternative digital Cash System I
0:24
want to talk about Amazon because if
0:26
you're like me you spend a lot of time
0:29
on Amazon and buy a lot of stuff and the
0:32
thing is is there's always been this
0:33
Great Divide Bitcoin and Amazon and now
0:37
it's solved now there's a really elegant
0:39
solution from a company called
0:42
u.io so what I want to do is I want to
0:44
show you how easy it is for me to go on
0:47
Amazon find something like John
0:50
grisham's latest book and then use
0:53
Bitcoin out of my iay
0:56
you.i wallet and actually use that to
0:59
purchase purchase the book and have it
1:01
shipped to me so spin around and let me
1:03
show you what's on the screen and I'll
1:05
talk you through all right so here I am
1:07
at amazon.com and you can see in my
1:09
shopping cart is the new John Grisham
1:11
Thriller the Whistler looks great so I'm
1:14
going to go to check out so now you can
1:17
see that I have $5 of a gift card
1:20
already applied but I still owe
1:23
$18.47 so let's go ahead and pay that
1:25
with Bitcoin the first step is simply to
1:31
.io and I've already set up an account
1:33
you can see I have $32 in balance and
1:36
I'm going to just go ahead and click on
1:39
link and at this point I've also set up
1:42
my account over at Amazon it's super
1:45
easy to do you just give it your Amazon
1:49
password and now I just need to do
2:01
so you can see I'm going to transfer
2:03
$18.47 there's a little transaction fee
2:06
but it's very much worth it cuz I am
2:08
paying for an Amazon purchase with
2:11
Bitcoin how awesome is that let's go
2:13
ahead and initiate the transfer by
2:15
clicking on transfer to amazon.com
2:19
now and it'll collect the
2:24
funds and now if you look up here it's
2:28
actually starting to do the transfer to
2:31
Amazon so it starts by contacting
2:34
amazon.com starting the transfer and now
2:37
it's transferring the funds and to be
2:39
fair this takes 20 or 30 seconds but you
2:41
don't need to watch this for that so
2:43
let's just jump ahead to the
2:46
end and transfer complete awesome so
2:50
now we have a new balance at Amazon so
2:53
let's switch back to Amazon and all I'm
2:55
going to do is refresh this and watch
3:00
so the gift balance is now
3:04
$23.47 which turns out to be exactly the
3:07
cost of the purchase so we have a gift
3:11
$23.47 and in total the book is going to
3:14
cost me zero how awesome is that that's
3:17
all you have to do done and I just
3:19
purchased something on Amazon with
3:22
Bitcoin so that's all there is super
3:25
easy I mean honestly it makes this as
3:27
easy as using a credit card as easy as
3:30
using any other Financial currency and
3:32
now people that have Bitcoin or been
3:35
thinking about Bitcoin you know have
3:37
another really cool way to use it on
3:39
Amazon so how is this not a win-win and
3:42
as for me well hopefully I'll get a
3:44
knock on the door soon enough so I can
3:45
start reading that new book so I would
3:48
suggest you check out
3:51
iu. and learn how you can use Bitcoin to
3:55
pay on Amazon super cool this is Dave
3:58
Taylor and and I'll catch you in my next
