Elevator pitch

Get notifications when:

• you receive Bitcoins (merchants, miners, donations, etc.)
• price changes on major exchanges
• difficulty is adjusted

By:

• HTTP requests (automation)
• SMS
• e-mail
• IM (Jabber)

Merchants dream came true

BitcoinNotify is the most secure way to accept Bitcoins:

• payments go directly to your private wallet - trust no 3rd party
  
• keep your wallet disconnected from the network so it can never be stollen by hackers
• there is nothing to install on the server
• there is no external API to call
• customer never leaves your store (no 3rd party site involved)
• receive HTTP updates of the BTC exchange rates

See how to accept Bitcoin payments in your store / application / bussiness.

Accepting Bitcoin payments is now as simple as handling HTTP requests.

BitcoinNotify is not a payment proxy. Instead, we monitor the Bitcoin network in search for payments on predefined addresses.

Pricing

The service is free of charge except SMS notifications which cost 0.01 BTC/SMS. This is commercial, company backed effort.

Limited invitation to the closed beta

I've just send a small amount to the lucky new user who subscribed to payment notifications. Thanks for testing. Hope to hear from you.

suggestions:

1st on sign-up.. when entering a password, you can show the information about secure password before submitting
2nd on adding a notification the label "free of charge" should be changing right after ticking the sms-checkbox
3rd give me an (optional) input field to label my "notification" like "donations for the blog" or "bike-shop" so that I can see on first glace whats going on.

but apart of these really small things your service is very well done!

how many blockexplorer-servers are there redundant - just in case?

[Stephen Gornick]

TransactionRadar.com has an API, and I believe this could be used to help to detect when a race attack for double spending is in progress.

Use of this for sending a subsequent "warning" notification should a double spend attempt be detected would be useful.

Are international SMS supported? Any country restrictions?

An alternative is http://www.bitcoinreminder.com.

BitcoinNotify watched the blockchain and sent notification when payments arrived.  BitcoinReminder will send SMS text messages when the exchange rate moves.  Apples.  Oranges,  No?

As far as I remember, there was also the option to get notifications about price changes, the same functionality bitcoinreminder.com offers.
But if I'm wrong, please excuse my post.
