Please note: if you plan to sell in fiat currency (like USD) and Bitcoin, you also will need some kind of multi-currency plugin like “WooCommerce Currency Switcher”
Demos
* Satoshi Webstore – very basic Webstore with two payment methods, just proof of concept. It is not pretty (runs on Twenty Eleven theme) – yours will be much better
I already sell in USD (RUR,EUR..), why do I switch to Bitcoin ?
Do not switch – add. If you considering other currencies – search for WooCommerce multi-currency plugins.
See example: Webstore accepting BTC and USD.
If you just opening online store, the Instant Bitcoin is good place to start – there is no approval process.
In any case, this payment method is really handy for downloadable products.
There are plenty of excellent multi-currency plugins out there, but we recommend “WooCommerce Currency Switcher”.
Some advices:
If you use several currencies, set Bitcoin as second one. Some payment gateways ( not us! 🙂 ) will disable themselves if primary store currency is not the one they support.
Make sure you set 8 digits after decimal point for Bitcoin to operate with satochi.
Use fixed prices, because automatic conversion often turns small USD amounts into 0 Bitcoins.
What do I do with acquired satoshi ?
There are plenty of services willing to buy crypto-currency for fiat – google it.
You also may sell satoshi for fiat by plugin Exchange PayPal to Satoshi plugin.
What do I need to configure the plugin ?
You will need only Cryptoo.me API key. It is free.
