Man, Coinbase keep on delivering, I guess the founder of Reddit who is an internet entrepreneur and investor made a wise decision to invest in them.

After recent announcement from them looking at 30+ alternative currencies they announced this now:

I wish I could make this a longer post giving my opinions about this amazing news and move of showing the power of crypto to users who don't even need to know they are using crypto. 

With times being super busy lately though and so much happening around Steem (coinbase should really get themselves a Steem account to post these announcements on for us), I will just quote some parts from the article of day 1 out of 12.

>Starting today, e-gift cards are available through our program with WeGift (previously in the UK and EU only) and can be purchased at dozens of great vendors, including Uber, Nike, and many more. Getting started is easy — visit WeGift to link your Coinbase wallet and you can immediately spend crypto on e-gift cards.

>customers purchasing e-gift cards enjoy no withdrawal fees and bonuses of up to 10% on select vendors, making it smoother than ever to use crypto. Now, you’re just a few clicks away from spending your balance on e-gifts cards for Adidas shoes or your next vacation. Better yet, use some on the holidays — you’re just in time.

>To get started, visit wegift.io/coinbase.

Dang that just sounds great, such awesome news. While other payment options cost us fees with crypto we get bonuses. :)
