“In a strategic move that could more than double the number of bitcoin merchants on its roster, BitPay has announced a partnership with 3dcart, a well-established eCommerce platform for online store owners. The partnership gives some major online merchants – including Bubba Gump Shrimp, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, and The New York Times – the option (not obligation) to enable bitcoin payments directly through 3dcart back-end tools. BitPay gives merchants the option to accept bitcoin payments and instantly convert all, some, or none of the bitcoins into a bank deposit that clears in one business day.”
