On June 1, Chipotle, a well-known American fast-food company, accepted crypto payments in the US via Flexa, a widely used digital payment platform. Customers can utilise Flexa to pay for burritos and other Tex-Mex top picks at any Chipotle area in the US. There are over 98 different crypto tokens registered on the Flexa platform, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and Solana (SOL), which can be used for payments.
Companies have to sign up to Flexa-empowered wallet applications for in-store computerised exchanges like Gemini or SPEDN, and pick Chipotle out of the given choices. On June 1, Flexa announced the partnership with Chiotle:
“All of us here at Flexa are incredibly excited to be working alongside the Chipotle team to help further digital payments innovation and make real, healthy food even easier to enjoy. We’re looking forward to continuing to enable more payment options together very soon. “
Currently, Chipotle is carbon negative, as it is still adjusting to the outflows made by its blockchain and functional exercises with undeniable carbon counterbalances. Nordstrom, GameStop, Lowe’s, and Petco are among the stores in the US that accept crypto payments via Flexa.
This isn’t the first time a fast-food establishment has accepted cryptocurrencies. Chipotle has joined the league of Starbucks and Subway with the integration of crypto payment services. Last year, Chipotle also provided $100,000 worth of free burritos and $100,000 in bitcoin to commemorate National Burrito Day. Burrito Bucks, the chain’s own in-game currency, was recently established on Roblox (RBLX). Players may exchange Burrito Bucks for a complimentary entrée ticket at select Chipotle cafes. Chipotle is offering a 10% discount to anyone who makes their next purchase using any cryptocurrency in a Flexa-enabled app to encourage people to adopt its new payment service.
