Bitcoin Forum

Dear bitcointalk users,

I'm not sure whether I'm on the right place but I'd like to ask where to ask or where to go when I need to accept bitcoins for my high risk online eshop. Can anyone point me to the right place? It's pharma business.

Always good idea to check bitcoin wiki.
All the necessary information is there, including free APIs or/and 3rd party services.
 

You can use third party service like bitpay and use their easy to use plugin but if you have developer who can work for few days for you more than ask him to implement blockchain.info, blocktrail or block.io etc api so that you can directly get payment in bitcoins to your wallet.

I would suggest you to get involved directly rather than depending upon third party sources, because recently one among the biggest travel partner company initiated third party service of accepting bitcoin, but in a very short time the bitcoin acceptance have been stopped.

The whole point of bitcoin was that we wouldnt need third parties to accept payments, it should just be "put an address up and start recieving payments "

The problem is bitcoin is so transparent that people can see how much payments are you getting.

well i wish you good luck with your business though i doubt that people will want to shop with bitcoins for pharmacy as usually only elderly people buy it

high risk pharma = illegal drugs? ::) ::)

Hey Welcome to bitcointallk and I would like say that bitcoin will be act as money and as well as payment mode. You could really can go with bitcoins in your business. As my knowledge it will produce the profit more than you are making now beause price is stable and It would increase in near christmas.
Note: Really thanks to adopt bitcoin to your bitcoins and I wish you all the sucess:)

I was thinking of the same thing lol, but maybe OP meant "high risk" as something that is more probable to be bust rather than to profit.

AFAIK, you can use bitpay in your online shop. But you can always do the most basic thing there is when it comes to accepting payments via bitcoin: post an address on your site, lol.

What's your definition of high risk?

If it's something questionable then don't even bother getting started with a payment processor. They'll dispose of you extremely rapidly. And their definition of high risk might surprise you. They don't seem to like guns even in legal states, so even if you're selling legit drugs they might get funny.

Same goes for plenty of exchanges, mainly the regulated ones. If they sniff out coins from a source they don't like they'll do the same.

Better to mix and then sell yourself if you want fiat at the end of it.

I also think that way. if it is a business that has a high risk of drugs, most likely this is an illegal drug. I think it actually has a severe risk, and I obviously did not know where the ideal place for a business like this

Yes right you can use the services of bitpay which can help you get started by using their easy plugin.But before that you need to get more information, reading bitcoin wiki and searching over google to get new ideas then u can use bitpay service for help and implement block.io api because its easiest i think and your payments.

If we told you where to go to sell your drugs, we would be a accomplice to your crime.  ::) .... To think of it, I should actually direct you to one of the honey traps on the internet to make sure that you

get the best service from the authorities.  ::) Get a real job, and come back here and ask us legal questions and we will respond favorably. We do not need another Silkroad incident at this stage. I

think OpenBazaar is going to go the same route soon.  ???
