Title: Good API for making shareware that accepts bitcoin? Post by: Geremia on June 25, 2015, 05:19:32 PM Are there any good APIs for accepting Bitcoin within Qt or similar such applications, for making paid shareware applications?
(cf. the related Bitcoin StackExchange question (https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/q/38271/4334)) Title: Re: Good API for making shareware that accepts bitcoin? Post by: secrethedgehog on June 25, 2015, 05:26:12 PM Personally, What I would do it just have a link to "buy full software here" on your "demo" application.
You can use a callback API like blockcypher.com/blockchain.info (Personally I prefer the Blockcypher API) to check when someone has paid and give them a unique link to the full version or give them some user credentials which are checked against an authentication server (like mysql backend) Hope this helps.
