BTCPay Server is a open-source, self deployed payment processor. BTCPay Server comes with a variety of benefits to both the merchant and the customer. You are guaranteed complete control over your funds. Trustless validation, uptime and privacy. What’s more, deployment is easy and fast thanks to a high number of VPS Hosting providers.
To begin, you will need to pick a preferable subscription on a Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting platform. Look at it as a computer in the cloud that will allow you to employ some computing space and power at a cost.
There will be a number of VPS hosting services available, so you will just have to do some research and choose the most suitable according to your needs and finances. The prices will definitely vary depending on the operating system you are using and the amount of memory and storage you have.
Who says point of sale, says cybersecurity. The cost of a cyber attack is greater than the cost of adding good security to your infrastructure. The hosting provided by D-Central is hassle-free and includes solutions with some of the best security standards. Contact us to learn more about our BTCPay Hosting.
Once you are successfully connected to your VPS, you will need to download the required files and set up your BTCPay server. To do this, first, install git on your system to have access to BTCPay installation files on your VPS, and then connect your BTCPay server.
Note that you will be required to pay your VPS provider to keep your node online as long as you need it to. BTCPay is an open-source software and, therefore, is completely free.
Once everything is complete, you can now begin to set up your BTCPay account. To register, you will need an email address and a strong password. Then, you will have to add your store by creating a new store and naming it appropriately.
Once your store is set up, on the setting tab, carefully fill in the derivation scheme box using the extended public key on your wallet. Take your time and make sure all details are correct since any mistakes made here will affect the access to your Bitcoin funds. You don’t want that.
All done? Next, all you have to do create an invoice once a bitcoin client visits your store. On the top left menu, click on invoices, create a new invoice, fill in the necessary text boxes and once you are done, checkout. To allow the client to make the payment, present the point of sale to the buyer and complete the transaction.
So you might wonder, among all the other Bitcoin payment processing options available, why choose BTCPay server? Well, here is why.
First off, the BTCPay server is free of charge. That’s right, merchants do not have to worry about making transactions, subscriptions, or processing costs. It is fully open-source and all payments will be made directly, peer to peer. Therefore, saving enough to cater for other essential necessities of the store.
What’s more, BTCPay is decentralized so anyone can deploy a server. Whether you opt for a self-hosted payment processor or wish to help your friends and community with the payment processing, the choice is yours. It will also be wise to remember that the amount of stores you can attach to a single BTCPay server is unlimited.
Payments are made directly, no data is shared. What’s more, you will not have to put up long waiting hours for a merchant to receive payment so that they can send a confirmation. The process is made quick and easy for both the merchant and the customer.
