Title: Accept Bitcoin Donations With A Text link Post by: simplymieke on January 04, 2017, 10:30:36 AM Hi
I'm looking for a way to accept Bitcoin donations by adding a link to my site. I've found hundreds of ways to add a donation button to my site, but I need it to be a simple http:// link. Can someone give me a tip, please?

I normally just paste my Bitcoin address and then let the other person copy and paste it. I personally use a mobile wallet and if I purchase something using my desktop, all I do is to paste the payment address at https://blockchain.info/ then scan the QR code. I just came across this new project recently and you may like it. The Bitcointalk topic is here - So all I need to do is to https://1bit.co/PAq4 or https://1bit.co/1JTKingdNGmCfbP8HCbhenoxRQuy8tqZvs (https://1bit.co/1JTKingdNGmCfbP8HCbhenoxRQuy8tqZvs).

I couldn't understand a word that was posted on the thread, but the service looks exactly what I needed! ;D Title: Re: Accept Bitcoin Donations With A Text link Post by: jacktheking on January 04, 2017, 12:08:38 PM Thanks a bunch!

Here is the correct link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1724968.

Code: bitcoin:1E6MkNW9smz9GKi4AXbegND4ctujCZnSjA?label=shorenafullnode With a locally installed bitcoin app, it will open the app, prepare a new transaction and fill in the label and address accordingly. You can even preset an amount if you want.

It might be difficult to notice that your donations are being siphoned off.

This is all specified in BIP 21: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0021.mediawikiFor an example of an amount: Code: bitcoin:1E6MkNW9smz9GKi4AXbegND4ctujCZnSjA?label=shorenafullnode?amount=10.5 Title: Re: Accept Bitcoin Donations With A Text link Post by: Digitalbitcoin on January 08, 2017, 01:45:09 PM Hi I'm looking for a way to accept Bitcoin donations by adding a link to my site.

I think there are better option to receive donation online with cryptocurrencies rather than text link. You can simply put wallet address by addressing your users to donate or also you can put QR code image it will also good for donator who wish to donate simply by scanning qr code and send payment. It will also mobile friendly. |
