Title: Gaming Operators - Easily accept DOGE, LTC, and more with ShapeShift API
Post by: ShapeShift.io on October 30, 2014, 10:45:44 PM

Hello gaming operators -

We've noticed some of you only accept Bitcoin deposits. That's so 2013! We'd like to remind you that you can accept DOGE, LTC, PPC, & DRK (plus many more soon) for free at your site using the ShapeShift.io API (https://shapeshift.io/api.html).

You can integrate this API in just a couple hours - it's very easy. It will enable your players to deposit altcoins to your site. They are converted quickly by ShapeShift and then sent to you as Bitcoin (so you don't have to change anything in your backend to support the alts).

Our service is highly reliable and customers love it (http://shapeshift.io/testimonials.html)

  • ShapeShift.io API (https://shapeshift.io/api.html)
  • Apiary version (http://docs.shapeshiftio.apiary.io/)

There's no reason not to accept other popular altcoins at your site. ShapeShift's API makes it ridiculously simple.  If you have questions or need assistance with integration, just send us a PM or email mail [at] shapeshift.io

Looks pretty cool... do you guys have limits on the amount that can be deposited?

Hi - yes there is a limit per transaction, which is available to know in real time with the API:

Code:
url: shapeshift.io/limit/<pair>
method: GET

<pair> is any valid coin pair such as btc_ltc or ltc_btc

Success Output:
    {
        "pair" : "btc_ltc",
        "limit" : "1.2345"
    }

Would like to see more sportsbooks accept dogecoin. Only one I've seen accept it is Directbet

Which is more successful right now, darkcoin or doge?
I love to see both make their way to coin betting sites.

This API looks pretty cool and would certainly make it easier for sites to accept altcoins.
