Realistically, you can't. Unless you want to be a very early adopter, no mainstream businesses are accepting payments in crypto. Techwise, Coinbase has a thing: https://commerce.coinbase.com/ https://commerce.coinbase.com/
But I've absolutely never seen it in the wild.

- nomel 5y agoThis list seems silly. For example: > In a 2013 video, a man appears to be paying for his meal at Subway using Bitcoin in Allentown, Pennsylvania. And, many are only at select locations, "will be", "unveils plans", and "testing".

- iamlolz 5y agoTo add my experience. I looked at rolling out Coinbase commerce a couple of years ago and then again a couple of months ago. I found their current integrations lacked support or were seemingly abandoned. Contacting general or merchant support often took over 2 weeks to get a response, which was a deal-breaker for any service that would inevitably impact customers on our end.
- tootie 5y agoI'm not even really talking about technical limitations. More that 90% of consumers don't own any crypto. And (more controversially) it has completely morphed into an investment asset class. One that is possibly in a deflationary spiral where no one wants to spend any of it. IMHO it has really failed in it's mission of actually being a currency.
