Users can pay with cryptocurrencies from home delivery to restaurant food services in said country
The cryptocurrencies market is taking a lot of strength in South American countries. This market for digital assets is increasingly stable in terms of financial criteria. This is the reason why, in some Latin American countries, there are commercial establishments that accept bitcoins (BTC) as payment methods for the products and services they offer.
There is a large number of stores that have adopted BTC as a direct method of payment in Argentina. Thanks to this, its citizens have at their disposal a chain of restaurants, cafes and bars that have adjusted their collection systems to receive cryptocurrencies.
These are some of the restaurants and“Intelligent Services”in Argentina that accept Bitcoin:
Foster Nutrition
Very close to the General Consulate of Italy in the central area of the city of Buenos Aires, there is a restaurant that is classified as “Intelligent Restaurant”; its name is Foster Nutrition. This restaurant has achieved a perfect combination between new technologies and good food. According to Martin Zuker, CEO of the establishment, the operation is fully automated. He explained to local media that the order must be made by means of a tablet, which processes the choice of the dish and send it to the kitchen by means of a digital command where it is prepared and delivered in automated boxes.
The menu is very varied; it goes from wraps, sandwiches, croquettes and soups, to desserts such as brownies, cookies, and fruit mousse. Customers can pay all the services offered by the restaurant with Bitcoin, scanning a QR code to execute the operation from their smartphones.
HoyPido
If clients want other alternatives, in Argentina there is a unique service exclusively for the delivery of food at home. HoyPido is a home ordering platform that is able to receive payment for its services with Bitcoin.
The menu is diverse and the dishes include salads, vegan meals, desserts and drinks, as well as specific dishes prepared with chicken and meat. According to the website of the service, orders can be made up to one day in advance and they also accept Bitcoin as a payment method.
AntiDomingo
In other of the several options offered by Buenos Aires city, there is the AntiDomingo bar. Said bar offers its customers live music, alcoholic drinks, such as spirits as well as food, which goes from pizzas and hamburgers to desserts and typical foods of Argentina.
The official website of the bar states the following, “We created AntiDomingo 15 years ago with the purpose of counteracting the boredom of Sundays at night; chatting, enjoying a good wine, delicious food, art and good music”. The site has enabled a collection system that allows its customers to cancel all their consumption with Bitcoin.
These are not the only commercial establishments that have decided to expand their business strategy to active users of cryptocurrencies. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that digital assets are stable enough for some merchants to adopt this alternative payment for their services. The increase of users with cryptocurrencies and the growth of the crypto-market in these countries that experience economic difficulties have made this a viable option to protect their finances.
