Accept dogecoin for payment for premuim

Submitted by on ‎2014-07-11 06:49 PM

I would like to pay for premium with dogecoin.

 

Dogecoin is a crypto-currency similar to bitcoin and is easy to intigrate into spotify using a service called gocoin.

 

Dogecoin uses less fees then using a credit card or paypal.

 

Members of the dogecoin community will be influenced to use spotify over competitors.

Dogecoin is not a joke, and have accomplished many things such as sponsoring a nascar team and funding a well in kenya.

I second this idea. I have enjoyed Spotify for over a year now and would like to be able to subscribe with Dogecoin. The GoCoin payment system is simple and requires no changes or implementation on your end of things.

I've been using Spotify for more than two years now and I've stuck to the free subscription for the entirety. I don't really like the ads but I didn't want to deal with the hassle of purchasing a subscription through the means you had available.


If you used GoCoin or another cryptocurrency payment processor to add DogeCoin monthly and yearly subscription prices, I would buy a subscription immediately, as well as buying a few for my friends. I would love to support you guys, and GoCoin would take very little time to implement into Spotify's payment system. It's a net positive any way you look at it. You're creating a new method of payment that will get you new paying customers... you should at least consider it.

I love the ease of paying with dogecoin (once I have gone through the process of securing the coin, that is) and would definitely consider buying spotify premium if dogecoin were an accepted payment method (I have been using the free spotify client for 2+ years). I would also LOVE a feature that would allow tipping artists on Spotify with dogecoin, allowing users to express appreciation more meaningfully and helping make spotify more profitable for the artists.

I would definitely support any decision to integrate support for people who'd like to pay with Dogecoins.

Grooveshark has just started accepting Bitcoins as payment, so you should counter with accepting dogecoins!
