Title: Blockchain receive payment api callback problems Post by: imtiax on March 20, 2014, 04:10:07 PM Hi I use Blockchains Receive Payment API on my website to handle BTC Payments. i have been using it for the past six months without problem.
But since March 16 2014 I have not been receiving any payments from BlockChain https://www.whmcs.com/appstore/1570/Blockchaininfo-Bitcoin-Payment-Gateway.html https://blockchain.info/api/api_receive How it works is. Each customer sends their BTC to a unique address, and then blockchain is supposed to forward those funds to my wallet. What should I do?

Look here https://twitter.com/blockchain Yes but even last night, someone sent me $27 via my website, and the funds were never forwarded to me by blockchain's api. Am I eventually going to receive all the funds I didn't receive since the 16th?

If for some reason can't post here please send me PM about it because I really don't want to use their services anymore.
EDIT: I mean to use shared address (mixer). Title: Re: Blockchain receive payment api callback problems Post by: yabtcl on March 20, 2014, 08:48:55 PM In my opinion, the best way to receive payments is with the Bitcoin Core client. so you don't need to depend on third parties servers to receive payment
Title: Re: Blockchain receive payment api callback problems Post by: sant0s80 on March 22, 2014, 10:15:57 AM Did anyone get this to work again? I haven't received payments for the last couple of days.
Still looking for alternative to their API.. Title: Re: Blockchain receive payment api callback problems Post by: greeny90 on March 23, 2014, 08:33:53 PM Still nothing, nothing's been working for 4 days... I know it's a free service but at a tweet with a service would be nice!
For the time being I've had to (very annoyingly) get my server to retrieve the following endpoint every few seconds: https://blockchain.info/address/{walletaddress}?json (Where walletaddress is the address that blockchain has generated for you.) From there you can scan the json string for your transaction. The funds do get forwarded eventually (I count a 24 hour lag at the moment). Not exactly elegant, but I don't really have a choice. |
