NEW YORK -

Saying that cryptocurrency is becoming accepted into the mainstream as a viable form of payment, eAutoLease will soon will accept cryptocurrency as payment for leasing and online auto sales.

eAutoLease, which serves customers in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania, said U.S. luxury car dealerships have begun accepting various forms of cryptocurrency over the past few years, and they have done so with increasing success. 

Zoriy Birenboym is chief executive officer of eAutoLease and said the company wanted to ensure that all of its clients, including those holding cryptocurrency, can lease or buy an eAutoLease vehicle in whatever manner they choose.

“The time has come for us to join the forward-thinking commercial world to make these transactions possible,” Birenboym said in a news release. “Internet commerce is our specialty — so we're researching how best to enable crypto payments.”

eAutoLease said because it built its business around the concept of leasing vehicles through the internet, it's no surprise that the company is not far behind the digital currency trend.

eAutoLease said it is committed to remain a cutting-edge, online company.

Adding crypto to its forms of payments, the company said, is the next logical step.

Birenboym tells his team of experts and customer base, "eAutoLease.com is the future and just the tip of the iceberg to what the future holds."

The company said it is Intimately aware of the ins and outs of online transactions for automobiles. eAutoLease said once it is fully prepared to accept the digital currency, the process will be smooth, secure and easy to process.

eAutoLease said that before entering into any agreements, it fully vets all vendors and payment processors.
