Has anyone looked into Paybear? They have a fully functioning service (provide a payment gateway) for ecommerces and are on the verge of launching their token, so basically all the current webshop owners who are already accepting the big cryptos with their API will automatically be able to accept the token as a payment method, does this sound big?

Never heard of them. But if they can offer what they have promised then probably they can be successful on their ICO. Do you have a link to this paybear token? I suggest, It'll be good if you'll give your readers more details about this project so they can react. |

I saw Paybear's booth in NYC early this month. My question is, since Bitcoin payments are slow and cost higher than other coins, will it still be the same if we use a merchant with Paybear's system?

I think it still goes through the blockchain though. At least the payment platform/gateway itself works fast and has minimal fees. There's still an advantage with Paybear as opposed to Paypal. |

You have services such as coinpayments which have support for vast amount of crypto already. Problem here is that however you are relaying on 3rd party service when in reality you don't have to. These services are okay since they host nodes and all that but with free APIs and a little of work you can create your own version of payment system and without the need to pay somebody for it. But easier way is to go with such payment services as they make it very easy. |

Do you mean merchants are able to do without using payment gateways? |

So far I have not encountered merchants with independent payment gateways since I usually see CoinPayments. In my opinion, payment gateways are necessary to act as a secure and trusted middle-man for transactions especially for websites that aren't that well known.

I agree. Payment gateways, especially trusted ones easily help gain a customer's trust which increases the sales potential for smaller websites. |

What's awesome about Paybear is that their fee stays the same whether you send $1 or $1000. The more money you spend, the cheaper they are if we compare it with Paypal, stripe, etc. |

Will these fees change (be more expensive) in the future when they go live? |

Once they go live, I think that they will start charging more or less .19 cents per transaction. lol |
