I would love to have either a straight bitcoin or a Bitpay implementation.

I doubt Bitpay is ready for it yet and we could just have the address input into E-junkie forward to a Bitpay account anyway so that would be an easy work around.]]> E-junkie Discussions; Sunnankar http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Tue, 21 May 2013 20:09:55 GMT
More so a matter of "I need to accept bitcoin."

I've been a happy customer of E-Junkie for over 3 years. And to show you guys how happy I've been, I will pay you guys $750 to implement bitpay, which shouldn't be that hard to implement. And so I don't have to switch to foxycart.

If you guys can't implement bitpay or some other bitcoin processor in the future, I can promise I won't continue using e-junkie.]]> E-junkie Discussions; zenmagnets.com http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Sat, 6 Apr 2013 15:39:10 GMT

Looks like it even lets you handle the digital delivery from your own site so that is pretty cool.

This makes it feasible to sell digital products for less than $0.05.

Using Bitcoin it sure is nice paying extremely low transaction fees ($0.003 per transaction) and not having chargebacks anymore!]]> E-junkie Discussions; Sunnankar http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Mon, 7 Jan 2013 11:30:09 GMT E-junkie Discussions; BishopHill http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Sat, 1 Dec 2012 20:26:45 GMT E-junkie Discussions; E-junkieNinja http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 13:50:24 GMT E-junkie Discussions; bunkbedking http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 23:59:58 GMT E-junkie Discussions; E-junkieGuru http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 03:18:03 GMT
Recently WordPress began accepting Bitcoin for all paid products and services. I have been getting increased numbers of requests from customers to accept payment via Bitcoin and I direct them to a make-shift solution we have implemented. Integrating Bitcoin as suggested by jrockdc should take only minimal programming resources.

A significant portion of our sales are already occurring via Bitcoin. So far I have been happy with the E-Junkie solution but it is getting to the point where E-Junkie's cart not having a Bitcoin option coupled with having to cobble together a make-shift solution is leading to scattered traffic, analytics problems, greater time commitments and ultimately lower conversions and less revenue.

As a result, I may have to remove the E-Junkie solution and replace it with some other service which has Bitcoin integrated (which will be increasingly easy given the WordPress community's support and carts with Bitcoin plugins already built).]]> E-junkie Discussions; Sunnankar http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 02:44:40 GMT E-junkie Discussions; gavseim http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Thu, 9 Feb 2012 21:29:02 GMT E-junkie Discussions; jrockdc http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Thu, 9 Feb 2012 17:56:37 GMT
www.bitinstant.com lets people deposit cash into one of 10,000 branches throughout the US and then have $$$ to buy bitcoins within about an hour which can then be used to purchase items. So this would be an additional useful service to be able to sell digital products for cash in a fairly quick way; we used to accept physical envelopes through the mail.

The code has been written to handle micropayments:

What would be nice about incorporating it into bitcoin is the ability to integrate the affiliate program. Several of my colleagues want to start using bitcoins for their products also.]]> E-junkie Discussions; Sunnankar http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Thu, 9 Feb 2012 15:23:37 GMT E-junkie Discussions; jrockdc http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5629/pg/0#post23287 Sat, 24 Dec 2011 21:37:32 GMT https://bit-pay.com/ and https://www.btcinch.com/ are options as well.

Because there are NO transaction fees, monthly bank account fees, or chargebacks and one's bitcoin wallet cannot be frozen therefore I greatly prefer bitcoins to Google Checkout or Paypal.

Had a horrible experience with Paypal freezing my account in order to simply verify the address while I was on vacation. I cannot have that kind of risk introduced into my business as it resulted in my affiliates, independent contractors and virtual assistants getting paid late.

So we have switched to bitcoins since one's wallet cannot be frozen. The next piece is to switch over most of my revenue streams to bitcoins but I want to keep most of my affiliates and have the system easily administered like through E-Junkie. Plus, with all the risk with banking institutions I feel safer with my cash in bitcoins instead of dollars or euros in bank accounts.

FYI, the code for creating the bitcoin shop is open-source on Github and fairly simple manipulate.

Browsing through the forums I read the request for Dwolla support and reply about the time consuming nature of adding payment options. I think in BitCoin's case because it is open-source software it should not be very difficult or time consuming to integrate as a payment option as there is no third-party to deal with via JSON, API, etc. permissions as transactions are verified and cleared by the open-source network.

If you could please add support for BitCoin I would greatly appreciate it as it would help us cater to our customer's desires and provide a more solid foundation for our business model which means we can keep paying E-Junkie every month :)

The last thing we need is to end up like Wikileaks and their banking blockade with Visa, Mastercard and Paypal which was not compelled by a government but merely because they desired to squash freedom of speech:
