BitNotify.com - Watch / Track any bitcoin address Balance. Get Notification

[blipp]

Hello,

I am working on a tool that helps to stay updated with BTC address balance. For example, it will deliver an email after payment to your address is made.
I think this is a simple task and I want to provide simple solution to it.

Well, web interface is very simple and it's good.
But about the features, what is the difference between yours and blockchain.info.  Since blockchain.info have notification about sent and receive btc too.
And what if btc address was on altcoin exchange, and somehow my coin has sold and my btc increased. Can i get the notification??

You should get a notification from an exchange that your order is completed.
Simple landing page and there is no non-spam policy. This can be helpful combined with a dedicated Gmail with enabled desktop notifications.

This is a great idea. The only reason I am faltering here is because I don't know if my email address will be sold later on and spammed into oblivion; but other than that, I love the idea.

Thanks!
BitNotify does one thing - notifies you about balance changes. That's it.
Advantage - simplicity. It has direct call to action. You don't even need to create an account.

Thanks.
I am considering to put some info about no-spam/privacy policy. This is actually a must to have, good idea.
You are right about dedicated gmail solution, it will work well in that way.

Thank you.
I understand you completely about spam concerns. From your perspective this may look like unknown reputation service.
Anyway, I am not collecting emails for any spam/sell activities. I released this to public and do my best to make quality service, which does what is promised.
Probably, next step will be to find ways to get reputation so people can trust it.

As long as you add in that privacy policy, I'm sure the community would trust your website a bit simply because they know that they would be able to take action against you if you broke the policy as it was, well, a policy you made.

[blipp]

Created privacy policy http://bitnotify.com/static/pdf/privacy_policy.pdf
Added it to the landing page too.

Archived. Good luck on your website and future developments; I personally like the idea and the interface very much.

Just tried this and I think I like it.

Would it be possible to list the tx ids in the email as well?
And I'm not sure if this is due to the limitation of the amounts of emails it will send, but I have yet to receive an email for outgoing transactions from my address.
If that is the case, I feel like it should send me an email with a summary of changes that happened during this cooldown period.
Lastly I believe some of the wording could be improved.

All in all it's a great service. Good job!

Edit: you should also move the privacy policy out of PDF and over to html/css, just for the sake of the user experience.

very simple
and helpfull for me, because im never get any notif from blockchain.info, if i receive some amount at my wallet

[Hugroll]

it looks good but would it be possible to receive a text update for your balance? emails really arent that good at notifying the user immediately.

Most carriers have an sms gateway service where you can send texts via email, like at&t is [phonenumber]@txt.att.net

This page has other carriers info

Yes, it's good idea to list transactions, probably last one or group of last transactions. I think this might be in the list of next features.
Currently you will get notifications for both incoming and outgoing transactions. And of course, there can be some logics done to make summary of changes.

Good idea. I will consider this option

I tried it, and seems quite cool, just that I am not sure it sends out notifications instantly when a change is detected. It would be better if you could state the number of transactions over that period of time, along with the current net change. I like the idea of receiving email notifications, so perhaps you can implement a phone notification thingy too! And its a free service, great!
