How to accept bitcoins on my website?

[Maidak]

I just recently launched a MMORPG shop online and I've always been a supporter of bitcoins and I've not yet seen a website that trades mmorpg products in exchange for bitcoins. I would like to implement it into my webstore and was looking for some good advice on how to do it properly.

If anyone has a guide on how to provide a bitcoin exchange for my webstore or even wants to help me on the project send me a message.

You can visit my web store here at www.mmoclub.com

Looking forward to your input and thanks for reading!

You are describing and exchange but what you are really describing is an online store selling in-game currency and vouchers/codes, correct?  (e.g., similar to what this likley competitor of yours does: http://bitcoincodes.com then click Gametime for pricing ?)

If so, then what you are probably looking for is ecommerce / shopping cart software that supports bitcoin as a payment method.  It looks like you've already got a shopping cart functionality on your site.   Which software are you using?   Perhaps there's a bitcoin module for it?

For instance, for OSCommerce there is a Bitcoin payment module:

There also are merchant solutions from Bit-Pay:

and from Mt. Gox:

I recommend Bitpay as stated by Stephen Gornick.

Their approval time is very quick and you'll be up and running in no time.
At least that's been my experience with them.

There are many particular services/solutions mentioned here. Does anyone want to synthesize a bunch of them into a guide for how to implement? That would be ideal since I would prefer not to "choose" one service over others. So the ideal answer should start "It will depend on your level of technological expertise and your existing software stack:" then break it down starting with 'slap on an address' and ending up at code-your-own....
