"The head of two Montessori schools in New York won't let parents pay by credit card - but he is accepting Bitcoin."
Bitcoin accepted at New York pre-school.
This is something really positive thing that bitcoin is being adopted where is a tech-savvy next generation. I am sure in next few years we are going to see such things happening in most of the countries.
There is a school in India which started accepting bitcoin way back in 2016.
This School Accepts Bitcoin !.
No matter whether the owner of the school was just trying to generate some boost to his business by doing this or not, i think that in the end he is still acceptnig bitcoin, and that means a lot. A lot of close minded people haven't even heard about bitcoin, and for him to be able to accept it in a real life business is extremely cool. Just expanding the real life uses of bitcoin imo.
You would get in a world of trouble, if you only accepted Bitcoin and not your countries reserve/local currency. I would much rather opt for the option to give parents the option to pay full price, if they paid with any other payment option than Bitcoin and give a 10% discount for people who pay with Bitcoin. It will be illegal in many countries to do this and I know actions like this will generate a lot of complaints from parents. ^hmmmmmmm^
Well... I really don't see a problem with someone saying that i only accept bitcoin, nothing else. But i guess the 10% off if you use bitcoin would be an extra incentive for the parents to start using bitcoin and pay their son/daughter's fees with it.
