Where can I find a list of merchants who accept bitcoins?

Question

Is there a list of merchants who accept bitcoins?

Answer 1

As well as the https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade page you could look at:

http://www.thebitcoinreview.com/

and

http://www.thebitcointrader.com/p/bitcoin-better-business-bureau.html

Both of these sites try to give some kind of rating or review but the data is limited at the moment.

Answer 5

Unfortunately the Bitcoin wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade) has grown completely unwieldy and has many outdated / no-longer-working links.

Coinmap is a decent place if you're looking for "brick and mortar" businesses, and spendabit.co lists millions of products from a growing number of Bitcoin-enabled merchants (including the usual list -- Overstock.com, TigerDirect, etc).
