Those who hold STX have a variety of options when it comes to utilizing their holdings. They can Stack to earn BTC, leverage their STX in Bitcoin DeFi, purchase Bitcoin-powered NFTs, and starting today they have even more options to spend their STX on everyday purchases. Major eCommerce platform, Shopping.io has added support for STX payments, meaning STX holders can now use STX tokens on the world’s largest eCommerce sites, including Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and Home Depot.

Here are a few highlights for STX holders:

• STX holders can now use tokens for purchases without cashing out
• STX holders will also be able to enjoy a 2% discount on all orders made using $STX for 30 days

Shopping.io founder and CEO Arbel Arif says, “We are very excited to begin collaborating with Stacks, not only as a form of payment but through other ways as well in the near future.”

With STX now added, token holders can use the Shopping.io platform to peruse their favorite sites, find discounts, and pay for purchases using STX. Just last year, Paycoin, a Korean crypto-powered e-commerce application added support for STX payments and Stacking capabilities, allowing users to use STX at popular restaurants and online merchants.

At Stacks Foundation and within the broader community, we’re constantly striving to build new capabilities for holders and enhance the usability and connectivity of STX. This integration with Shopping.io marks another significant milestone in our efforts to build a global community that’s accessible, secure, and flexible.
