It's a big no! Just tried Purse to buy on Amazon with bitcoin. Great idea, poor system, hours of waiting for support and non-skilled staff who answer about orange when you ask about apples, although this last thing is pretty much everywhere now.. Worst of all, no option to close an account, not even an entry about it in the help. You have to contact support! I can't imagine they handle well the data privacy.. Then when you (the customer) ask why there is no option nor result in the help about closing an account, they block you (the customer). It's a big no!

It's a SCAM, RUN! It's a SCAM, RUN! Nothing but lies and excuses. If you choose Buy Now, it is not purchased immediately, nor is it done by Purse staff as stated in their FAQs etc. Your order still gets passed to an Earner (scammer), which are 'scarce' (LOL) and there's no guarantee how long it will take to process your order. It's some kind of pyramid scheme. Do Not give them your BTC!

Only caveat is that if a earner is… Only caveat is that if a earner is fraudulent with an order that you have verified the refund may not work out due to an 'investigation' where you are not refunded right away even though the product has been returned. Purse can be used to build store credit over several orders at high discounts via returns but carries this risk. If you just want to save on an item and are sure to let them know if it's not received you'll probably do fine. Completed many orders with 27-33% discount, saving about 5% less after Purse fee. 0.0003 BTC withdrawl fee.

Used Purse.io for many years now Used Purse.io for many years now, and the experience is great. If you can tolerate waiting longer for your amazon purchases, it's highly recommended. I have transacted over 400 times and have zero complaints about the service. Too bad so many people are resistant to the idea. The gift card market leaves a bad taste in people's mouths I suspect, because yes some scammers are trying to get you to release bitcoin before you get your item, or trying to reverse the gift card purchase after amazon ships, but it never works, and I've never been scammed. And clearly Amazon has no problem with the way purse operates, or they would have cancelled my account after 400 wishlist purchases.

Good service. Review updated Original review: Full of scammers and terrible customer service. They just do not respond. I'd upload screenshot of all my unanswered tickets if I could. I was scammed for £200 and customer service ignored all my queries. They just don't respond. The worse thing a company can do is ignore their customers. In fact, ignoring anyone is just simply rude! Update: Issue resolved in the end and the service has been amazing!
