Chipotle Now Accepting Cryptocurrency Payments

Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG), a fast-casual chain, has begun accepting cryptocurrency payments via its digital payment platform, Flexa.

Customers can use Flexa to pay for burritos and other Tex-Mex favorite dishes at any Chipotle restaurant in the United States. The Flexa platform supports 98 digital currencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana's SOL.

To use Flexa for in-store purchases, you need to download the Gemini or SPEDN app to store your digital assets. To celebrate the new payment options, Chipotle is offering a 10% discount to customers making their next purchase using any digital currency in their Flexa-enabled apps.

Chipotle joins the ever-growing list of fast-food restaurants experimenting with cryptocurrency payments and promotions. In March, Shake Shack (SHAK) announced that every time they purchase a Shake Shack using their Block (SQ) Cash App debit card, Cash Card, they will receive 15% of their purchases in Bitcoin.
