It seems like the previous 1 star… It seems like the previous 1 star reviews were correct. Purse.io is no longer a functioning website and they will intentionally disable your account once you try to withdraw your Bitcoin. I only lost $90 so not a big deal, I'm lucky I didn't get scammed for more. Update: They said it was a bot that disabled my account on accident, I guess they are okay now.

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!

Makes shopping on amazon feel like freedom. It's hard to describe how much satisfaction I get from using Purse.io. I'm a bit of a pariah, I cannot stand my online activities being logged and tracked. I'm a person, not a piece of property to be tagged and studied. With Purse.io, not only can I extrapolate the transfer of money away from prying eyes, I can also hide from Amazon to a certain extent. It makes the simple act of buying something feel like an act of defiance and independence. Oh, and I save some coin with name your discount. That's also a plus. :)

Purse.io is a really good idea and… Purse.io is a really good idea and offers a really attractive service, but you need to be aware that there is no guarantee of a smooth process - no plug and play here. My only experience is as a buyer using the service to purchase on Amazon. It was a nightmare. I would never recommend and I won't be trying again. The "earner" who was fulfilling the order harassed me when the delivery was late, was plain rude from the first interaction. A real shame because it is a great idea.
