We’re happy to announce that you can pay for the same incredibly successful, award-winning work from our downtown Jacksonville advertising agency – with bitcoin.
It means we will just add another way for our clients to pay for great work. That’s pretty much it. At some point we might have to charge a client a late bitcoin fee for past due amounts
BitCoin as a currency is so volatile that payment is due upon invoice, literally right then. Otherwise the market price may go up or down and you could end up overpaying (or underpaying – which never seems to happen.) We honestly don’t think any one will ever pay with a BitCoin. Not now, and not in 10 years. But the experience of setting up the company as a vendor, learning about mining, about payments, bitwallets, etc. was a fantastic learning lesson about the future of digital currency.
If you’ve never heard of BitCoin or just want to learn a little bit about it, here’s a start:
