Shake Shack has started experimenting with cryptocurrencies by offering generous bitcoin rewards to its customers.
New York-based fast food chain Shake Shack has introduced a bitcoin cashback option for its customers in partnership with digital payments company Block’s App Cash App.
From now on, they will be able to receive a 15% reward in the largest cryptocurrency for every purchase made using Block’s Cash Card, a debit card linked to the customer’s balance.
Shake Shack has yet to see many requests to accept digital payments, which is why testing bitcoin rewards will be crucial to determine whether it needs to accept crypto in the future:
Shake Shack is far from being the first cryptocurrency company to bring cryptocurrency owners to court. Last year, American multinational chain Burger King partnered with popular investment platform Robinhood to offer rewards in various cryptocurrencies.You’re always trying to bet your bets on things that will actually be worthwhile and not wasting resources on things that won’t.
McDonald’s recently garnered a lot of attention with its recent Twitter exchange with centbillionaire Elon Musk about the meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin. The largest fast food restaurants also filed trademark applications to be part of the metaverse and launch virtual restaurants.
Some cryptocurrency-themed burger joints have also popped up around the world.
