Like Google Pay or Android Pay or Apple Pay, BitPay is a way you can make payments digitally while at a physical location, expect with cryptocurrencies. Basically, it’s a powered-by-Visa debit card for all your crypto-brick-and-mortar needs, wherever major credit cards are accepted.
Founded in 2011 (two years after Bitcoin blessed us with its presence), BitPay was created. It’s a fat cat, being the largest Bitcoin payment processor in the world. Just wait until Elon gets us to Mars.
