Popular Mexican-style,fast-food restaurant chain, Chipotle, will now accept cryptocurrency payments through Flexa, a digital payments platform.
Flexa supports around 98 currencies, including BTC and ETH.
Customers can use the app to pay for food items in any of the nearly 3000 Chipotle restaurants in the United States.
To pay with Flexa, customers will need to download Gemini or SPEDN app, both of which store digital assets. Customers can then use the app and tap it in-store to make a payment.
Other fast-food chains are trying to experiment in blockchain and crypto in other ways, trying to create hybrid digital-physical experiences. Taco Bell, KFC, Chick-fil-A, and Carl’s Jr. are just a few chains to have recently filed for brand trademarks for NFTs.
In April, Wendy’s worked with Meta to launch a virtual Wendy’s store, where users can create an avatar and sit at virtual tables with virtual food.
