Title: Looking for HTTP callback service for receiving payments from xpub
Post by: btcspry on August 03, 2016, 05:54:24 PM
I'm looking for a payment receiving service that's similar to Blockchain.info's Receive Payments API (V2).  They refused to grant me an API key, but didn't provide a reason (because that's just how a $30M-funding company does business I guess), so I'm looking for a similar service that makes payments that easy to integrate.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

Does it have to be the BIP32 HD setup?
Because someone made a clone of the old Blockchain Receive Payments API V1(blockapi.net) where you just use a GET request. Provide an address and it returns a fresh address for receiving payments, and will send a callback to the URL you specify. Works exactly like the old service used to, except this one charges a 1% fee on each transaction.

Example:
Code:
http://www.blockapi.net/api/receive?method=create&address=1YourBTCAddress&callback=http%3A%2F%2Fmysite.com%2Freceive

I appreciate the suggestion, but I do need it to be fee-free.  The importance of BIP32 HD is also very important, as I need it to be going to cold storage so that disasters can't happen with people stealing funds from the hot wallet, or being intercepted from the payment processor.

Blockonomics has a similar API https://www.blockonomics.co/views/api.html#newaddress . Its free as well
Its wallet watcher also integrates with the xpub so that you see history, get email notifications of payments
Feel free to mail webmaster at blockonomics.co if you need help with integration

This is so close to what I need, but unfortunately it is not quite exactly what I need.  I would rather the callback be HTTP/WebHooks instead of through a WebSocket.  I like that I can generate addresses from this system though.

If you need help, i have a service like that that keeps the coins for exactly 1 confirmation and then sends them on their way. Using blockchain v1 api  (not the new one with keys) callback type. That or i can sell you the script that does that :) and help you set it up.

Just FYI, blockonomics API has been updated and now support HTTP callbacks https://www.blockonomics.co/views/api.html#payments. Very easy to use/setup and should be straightforward to move from code using blockchain v2 api

Thanks
