How to pay

At gas stations, pay inside at the till rather than at the pump. For repairs and car purchases, agree the price in your local currency first and ask the business to generate the Bitcoin invoice at the current rate.

For a car purchase or other large amount, an on-chain payment with a proper receipt is the usual choice.
