Bitcoin Forum

Hey everyone,

Is there any company/startup outside that customers can pay for your product from the normal way(Credit Card, Paypal and other normal payment methods) and I can receive the payment as Bitcoin.

A lot of customers prefer traditional way to pay and when I say, "why don't you use Bitcoin? You can go to "x" website and buy some bitcoins" but you know, since they don't know anything about Bitcoin, they get scared or lazy and they don't do it.

As far as I know there isn't such services for the moment , your best bet right now is to continue accepting the old payment methods and simply buy Bitcoin from exchanges yourself.

You tried and that's it. I think Omega already answered your question. But keep up telling people they should try paying up to bitcoin. It is also a good thing to scatter the good news. Maybe someday you will bump to someone who would pay you in your method. For now, DIY.  ;D

I really don't know who are these so called bitcoin enthusiasts and supporters but seems like none of them has ever done something useful for bitcoin.
Though what you are asking just shows you are lazy :) because what we need is for people to be able to pay with bitcoin and merchants receive paypal and credit card payments, however I don't know why some services refund you if you try to pay with BTC.
If you are not doing some shady business and are legit there is no need to be lazy and buy from Cex.io with recently added debit/credit card support.

One more thing, if you really want to help bitcoin then try to sell some items with a huge discount exclusively accept BTC only.

There are companies that existed that has that kind of features. But that kind of services is only limited to selected countries only. Like what we have in the Philippines we just send money from remittance centers, from our mobile loads or from the banks to the company that sells bitcoin. Then after some verification the bitcoin purchased will be shortly available in our wallet.

Its best to continue with the old payment ways. And side by side keep bitcoin payments also. Since bitcoin is not that popular there wont be much customers that use bitcoin payments.Yeah of course in future there will be many. When you keep bitcoin payments , the people who dont  know about bitcoins will start googling or searching about bitcoins. They will be curious to know what it is . When they come to know about its benefits and uses they will automatically and slowly change into bitcoin payments. You dont have to explain anything to customer , they will slowly come to know everything about bitcoins.

Still now i din't find any option like that people are still paying through bitcoin and buying their products. May be in future they will implement this option may be. Right now this option is very difficult to assign because it should be done through banking system.

As I know there are no such apps yet that could allow you to pay directly with bitcoin. This idea sounds great. Hope professionals in this area are already creating something like that to we could pay by bitcoin for our staff.

True most of the customer they are preferred  traditional way to pay, but as I noticed you had a strong belief in bitcoin. That's why you offered it. So far in my place we still don't have that here in my country yet. due to majority of people here are not open minded on this things.

The closest substitute to your need is EXCHANGE.
There are several types of exchange services. Some manual, some internal or there are some exchange sites too.
You can have a look at 'Currency Exchange' section here. You could collect some btc for your money and trade whenever you want!

So if I send them 1BTC I'll receive $892 but if I try to buy from them I'll have to pay $924? and even there are %2.9, %3.5, %6.9 for receiving credit card. If someone sends me $100 payza will give me $93 in bitcoin with exchange rate above around $90 and for bank wire $15 fee? looooool.
Then I would need to charge my costumers for a $60 real worth item $110 to receive $100 but if I do that then my competitors will win since there are already same item for sale in other shops for $95.

You see everyone struggle with these fees otherwise they'd love to use different currencies and methods of payment.
Though I still think the acceptance will grow if services and shops try to sell some unique services and items with considerable discount accepting only bitcoin, then greed will do the work and people start to use and get to know crypto same time.

What? Did you think this would be free?

It's a company with people and buildings and services to pay...

There is no any such service and i think actually there is no need for it too. You can take payments from credit card using pos machine and buy bitcoin from exchangers like coinbase or xapo with that money you have in your bank account or in your credit card.

i never found any service that can work like you mention because for now, bitcoin is not connected with another payment processor like paypal and else. i think better you receive fiat and then you can use that fiat to buy bitcoin in the exchanges.

If it automatically like it you mean I guess no one has done it, you should still redeem it manually into Bitcoin.
Moreover I think that is your job to inform and spread more widely in the environment you Bitcoin because people still many who do not know and understand with Bitcoin and the way it works. I think you can start it and benefit from it.

in fact, it does not matter if he paid using another payment. because you can redeem it in the form of bitcoin to the exchanger. well, maybe they do not want to learn bitcoin, having already feel comfortable with what they are doing at the moment. they may also have other ways to earn money on the internet as a tool for their transactions.

In my country there is a bitcoin company with exchanger business field and bitcoin wallet at once. They do cooperation with local business to manage their payment of they product with bitcoin.
So the customer can pay with transfer money, and the business owner get the bitcoin vice versa.

maybe in future bitpay can do it.
now bitcoin support to everyone accept bitcoin as payment processor but he receive it "in dollar". so he didnt afraid about bitcoin price.
i want to ask some question, where you come from? any local online exchanger support api key? if enable to receive 'custom deposit" you can use your plan to receive in bitcoin.

Right now I can't think of any site that allows you to pay the normal way then the receiver will receive the payment via bitcoin. You really need to convert your money first to bitcoin before they send it to you. If you want, why don't you accept their payment they you will personally convert their payment to bitcoin?

This is a good idea for any company to set up,but it could only happen if bitcoin is widely use although bitcoin is very popular ,but not yet popular on merchants ,bitcoin still consider by many as additional portfolio

No you can not receive the payment in bitcoins, there are no services that can do that
 you can buy bitcoins with balance traditional payment.
Or you can accept bitcoins for payment method on your store, if you want receive the payment in bitcoins
but if you want convert bitcoins to fiat money you can use bitbay.com

Services that accepts bitcoin is not too many as of now since the adoption is not fully extent which means awareness of people on bitcoin would really not be there and when you explain it to them they will surely ignore it and tend to continue to use the traditional ways of payment method. Mind yourself only and buy bitcoin as much as you can if you do have the money.

I think its better to collect payment in whatever form they send. Then you can convert that payment to bitcoins yourself. If you ask them to convert them in bitcoins before giving to you, they will convert and detect maybe further money for conversion and may not give you the exact market rate or maybe even less.

You are right that people prefer the traditional method of payment,
it's because they don't have knowledge about using bitcoin.
And also, for now the payment facility using Bitcoin is very little.

Agree and bitcoin is not famous as what we thought lot of people dont know what bitcoin exactly and some of them didnt here it except for those who knows what technology is. Well know there are some accepts bitcoin but just a little and some of the country dont have any well i think in the future we could say that there are a lot.

Bitcoin becoming popular now but the price is unstable that's it's not recommended to use bitcoin as a method of payment there is a possbilities bitcoin become lower. It will be good if bitcoin continuous to increase you will receive the payment at the same time you can earn profit.

perhaps because the anonym bitcoin system that is you can make transactions without including your identity (pay with money laundering results) and bitcoin transactions can't be canceled, company / startup does not want to take a high risk just for one customer.

BitWage is offering a service to send Bitcoin as a salary using BitWage payroll you can
request to convert your salary to a currency, bitcoin or any other asset available to them.

i think this is not happening right now..... i don't know any company which can pay their employee using bitcoin or receive in bitcoin but i think in the future that may be possible......

As far as I know, many companies are not making payments with bitcoin. But a few have started and you can actually provide your services and receive the payment in bitcoin. An example is the online websites where you can provide your services e.g. article writing, blogging, web design etc and be paid in bitcoin.

And where is your country? What kind of local business? What the name of this exchange, link? Seems interesting information about bitcoin payment. But, as far as I know there is no such company cooperate with conventional banks (credit card) or PayPal to easily convert/transaction using bitcoin. This may a great idea to implement but need a trusted platform.

If such a service exists, it would be a rip-off since it's a guarantee that it will ask for a premium from the seller's end to pay for the platform and service fees. It might look as if the platform is a nice marketplace for consumers but the merchants would be affected in the long run due to fees and such.

That's right, bitcoin is getting more popular day by day. Along with the increasing popularity the price volatility is found low. So possibilities of bitcoin to get accepted as bitcoin is quite high. Also merchants accepting bitcoin have a assurance of getting profited soon or later.

But, I think someday Bitcoin would become an alternative payment
in any Online market products such as Paypal. But it will require a long time bitcoin as payment.
After all people really understand about this cryptocurrency.

How could you not know? you are participating in a company's advertising campaign and getting paid with bitcoin. Problem isn't in people not willing to accept or pay with bitcoin but governments rules and regulation makes it unpleasant to do so.

Hello Rahar02, I am from Indonesia. Exactly one of an Asean country. There is so many category of business that support "shop with bitcoin" and you can go to this site to see more https://directory.bitcoin.co.id
It is an exchanger that you can trust to trade bitcoin with Rupiah. This is the website www.bitcoin.co.id

I haven't heard about any such service so far (bitpay and such services are able to accept payments in bitcoin only) but even if there is any service then they will charge anything from 1% to 10% as per mode through payment received so it's better to use the same payment method for accepting payment and buy bitcoins directly from market (you will get 1% to 10% more with this method).

I don't know a service like that yet frankly and if that really exist then you should go for it else then it's better you stick with the old systems of payment and have your fiat converted into Bitcoins afterwards. There are so many exchanges that readily accept fiat for bitcoins.

that should be great if there is a platform does that kind of thing, but sadly most of people who reply do not know about that. even there is a link someone gave above, but it does not work exactly as OP wants. I also never heard about that kind of service. I have googled it, but I found nothing.

yes  agree i also never such service who are accepting in bitcoin only, although there are some service who usually give you option for payment including Bitcion, paypal, USD etc but accepting only bitcoin i think such service is not yet present anywhere. i think it can only possible when majority of people will adopt bitcoin and will mostly do their dealing in bitcoin, but i think it still require some more time, may be some decades.

I may be wrong but Spectrocoin can do this, there is another but don't remember the name

Maybe it will not take that long. There are already big investors considering the possibility of investing in projects that may help Bitcoin to become mainstream, and certainly this proposal can be taken into account. Bitcoin has a relatively new ecosystem, and in fact it takes patience to see things happen. I think it is also necessary to solve scalability problems, so that such projects work efficiently.

You are definitely wrong and dont try to spread your own coin shill. We are talking about bitcoin here not your Spectro****. Adoption would really be needed for people to be aware more on bitcoin so that when you try to say about it they would directly know on what is bitcoin and its uses.

Well, for the entrepreneurs there is a huge gap in the market. I'm %100 sure that many people will show interest for this kind of a service.

This sounds useless to me, why you just don't buy your bitcoin with the money you receive for the goods you sell? you can do this with any exchange that you desire, also it would avoid the fee of the service that you are looking for, if it will ever exist in the first place

If you want customer pay with creditcard etc and you receive as bitcoin, just link Paypal to your website and then transfer Paypal money to coinbase and buy bitcoin. Very easy to do.

You just continue getting payments in regular methods and turn them in some other exchanges. But you still  educate them continuosly about bitcoins.Make them understand bitcoin progress.You may offer them some discounts if they pay you in bitcoins.In future, they may turn to use bitcoins to pay you.But, its a long journey and we could not expect immediate results.

Doesn't CoinBase do something like that where they can accept regular Fiat currencies and they will instantly exchange it for you and deposit it into your bitcoin wallet? Of course there'll be a small exchange fee.
