Title: Selling Bitcoin through my store
Post by: luke.watson on March 17, 2013, 06:27:56 PM
Hi guys I have setup a site taking Bitcoin and I'm looking for a way to sell Bitcoin directly to my customers so they can purchase items from my store

I understand I could use Bitpay or mt gox to take payment but I would rather process the transactions myself rather than pay through them

I am weary of accepting paypal, google wallet or credit card payments because of charge back and I would prefer an automated system so I would rather not use bank transfer

Does anyone have any idea how I would do this I know people are using google checkout and even paypal, does anyone know how they can do this securely?

No no I mean I want to sell them the Bitcoin for GBP USD etc so they can then go and use the Bitcoin in my store I am already accepting Bitcoin but I think I am losing a lot of business because people do not understand the currency and it is a bit of a pain to purchase

I want a automated way to sell Bitcoin to customers so that I dont have to exchange the currency somewhere like mt gox and so that people will be more likely to purchase at my store to make it easier for them

If anyone has any idea how to do this it would be appreciated im sure there must be a way to do this without the fear of charge back
