“Our decision to use the MerchantCoin ecosystem to accept bitcoin for legal services supports our ongoing commitment to our customers – we want to make it as easy as possible for businesses to work with us by accepting as many forms of payment as possible,” said Rob Dickson, Partner at Dickson Law Group. “Secondly, we want to support the tech savvy nature of the Puget Sound business community by participating in cutting edge innovation.”
As a Registered Merchant, Dickson Law gains access to MerchantCoin’s Marketplace, launching September 30, 2014. This Marketplace provides an end-to-end solution facilitating digital commerce for both consumers and merchants. The Marketplace is an open-source ecommerce ecosystem that includes a web portal, website, storefront, content management system, shopping cart, payment gateway/point of sale solution, wallet and exchange platform, providing a one-stop-shop for both consumers and merchants interested in exchanging digital currency for goods and services.
“We welcome Dickson Law Group to our group of Registered Merchants,” said Kirk St. Johns, MerchantCoin Co-Founder. “Dickson Law will now enjoy greater visibility to consumers and businesses interested in paying for services with digital currencies. Consumers simply need to go to the MerchantCoin Marketplace and select “professional services.” They will then see Dickson Law highlighted as a MerchantCoin vendor and can use a MerchantCoin wallet to transact with the law firm.”
