I have contacted a customer service agent at blizzard's World of Warcraft's billing department trying to convince them to start accepting bitcoins as an alternate method of payment for people who have no credit card and are not entirely interested in going out to buy time cards. The agent I talked to didn't seem to know about bitcoins, so I'm not sure if blizzard may have already been considering or not. He told me that he would bring it up when he talks to his boss, who will have to talk to his boss, etc etc. I think I am going to try to contact someone a little bit higher up so that I can get more info on whether or not they've heard about/considered this payment option.

Just imagine if blizzard actually goes through with this.. I wouldn't be surprised if bitcoins userbase doubles or triples.

Looks like lots keep overlooking your post lol.

Thanks for everything you've done.

I think that it's completely ineffective to try to "convince" a site to accept payments in btc.

The only effective way would be to coordinate everybody to ask them to do so, and then buying something.

For example I'm sure that a chinese shop like http://www.dealextreme.com/ or http://www.tinydeal.com/ would be interested in bitcoins if some hundred of customers ask to support it.

But how many of us is ready to do so?
(I would be one of them, btw)

make www.freelancer.com accept bitcoins would be cool!

http://Uploaded.to now accepts bitcoins:
Besides additional, useful changes such as the newly designed Download Page with a Facebook-like button, we have taken the decision, as the first file hosting service worldwide, to accept bitcoins. You will receive more information on this in the next few weeks.

Not knowing if there is a thread dedicated on gather information about new merchants accepting bitcoins I write here just to let others know, I hope this is not a problem otherwise please point me to the correct thread.

JonDo, a site selling proxy and anonimizer tools, started accepting bitcoins.

I am trying to get a small local soap company called Soap Wreck to accept bitcoins. They might be interested in this payment option.

edit: Their website is Soapwreck.com, also edited to "trying" because I spoke with them about a week ago, this was the reason I registered.

I'm going to try to get www.entropiauniverse.com to accept bitcoins.  I'm not sure if someone else has already signed up for this as I'm unable to bring up the spreadsheet but in any case - I'll give it a go.

I've just read there's no bounty anymore. Never mind, I really want to pay for this with bitcoins.
You should change the title of the thread though.

Anyway, if someone wants to thank me for this: 1N9u8az3nkztXP3xUcYFhoFsNAvARxBowq

Mind saving that 2BTC for me, I'm going to integrate UK addresses right into my cheaperinbitcoins.com system, right now I do manual international shipping scince the input forum only accepts USA addresses. If I know it will be waiting for me I can get all this integrated in about a day or two?
