Accept Cryptocurrencies with an invoice.


How to Create and Share your own Cryptocurrency Invoices.




Introduction - Accepting Cryptocurrencies with Invoices.

In this article we are going to show you how you can easily create a Crypto invoice which includes a link that you can share through email, socials, messengers and almost anywhere online so that you can start getting paid for your products or services with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum and more, even if you don't have your own website.



Why Accept Cryptocurrencies for your products or services?

Less Risk – Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin cannot be charged back. This means no hefty chargeback fees, Penalties, suspended accounts or fraudulent transactions to deal with. (This is especially beneficial when selling Digital goods where most payment services offer little to no chargeback protection.)

Larger Transactions – Market Research has shown that people with Cryptocurrencies are willing to spend more in exchange for the convenience of being able to spend their Cryptocurrencies Directly. (Compared to bargain shopping with Credit/Debit/Cash.)

Larger Audience – Services like PayPal are not available in many Countries, and some people might not have or be able to get access to a bank account or a credit/debit card to make cash based purchases with.

Little Competition – With already over 150 million Bitcoin Wallets created and a large number growing every day, it is clear that there is a lot of people with Cryptocurrencies that are looking to spend, and not a significant amount of Stores or People currently accepting Crypto as a payment method option.
