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!

Scam Scam. Customer service is terrible and they just took around $300 plus change from me. Item not delivered and btc held in escrow with no explanation even after repeated inquiries. And all of the sudden balance goes to $0.00.

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!

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.

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. :)
