Buy coloured gemstones with crypto — The Natural Gem adopts Bitcoin & Ethereum

Global gemstone investment specialist, The Natural Gem, has announced it is now accepting bitcoin and ethereum as payment in a bid to improve flexibility and experience for its customers.

The move follows The Natural Gem’s plans to grow with the times and its customers, who will now have the sought-after option to make payments using Bitcoin or Ethereum.

Cryptocurrencies have been an integral part of the world of investors for several years, and today there are a growing number of companies across a variety of industries - from big tech to airlines - who are embracing cryptocurrencies, allowing customers to use them as an official method of payment for their goods and services.

The advantages for customers at a glance:

• Speed. Without requiring third-party verification from a bank, transactions using cryptocurrencies are ultra-fast.
• Cost-effective. With lower, and at times no transactions fees, paying with crypto is a more cost-friendly option to other popular alternatives. It is particularly beneficial for international payments and transfers.
• Privacy and security. Transactions take place anonymously and only between the computers involved, meaning your data won’t be stored in a centralised hub subject to breaches.
• Accessibility. Every internet user has access to Bitcoins & Co, so even people who don’t have a bank account can reap the benefits of using this payment method.

Thomas Schröck, Founder and CEO for The Natural Gem said: “At The Natural Gem, one of our objectives is to empower people to become financially savvy through smart and strategic investments in natural coloured gemstones. Cryptocurrencies follow a similar ethos of empowering individuals and encouraging financial education, and it was therefore a natural progression for us to start accepting bitcoin and ethereum as payment methods. We look forward to expanding more within this space and improving the customer experience.”
