Coinbase just announced a new service that lets customers in the EU and Australia pay for an Uber with crypto. By partnering with London-based startup WeGift, Coinbase customers can now cash out their crypto holdings by transferring crypto balances onto e-gift cards. Transfers are free, allowing customers to convert Bitcoin into Uber credits.
In addition to the zero-fee Coinbase withdrawals, the popular cryptocurrency exchange is also offering bonuses on select e-gifts. Along with Uber, a list of retailers is on board to help Coinbase customers spend their crypto with e-gift cards, including Nike, Tesco, Google Play, Ticketmaster and Zalando.
