Online tech-focused retailer Newegg got in on the Doge Day fun on Monday by announcing that it will now be accepting Dogecoin as an official payment method. Newegg has been eager to accept the shift to digital currency. In 2014, the company was the principal e-retailer to accept Bitcoin for payment of purchases made on Newegg. The organization is also allowing users to pay with Dogecoin while shopping on the website.
“The excitement and momentum around cryptocurrency are undeniable, and the recent surge in Dogecoin value underscores the need to make it easier for customers to make purchases with this popular cryptocurrency,” said Andrew Choi, Sr. brand manager of Newegg.
