This article will show you how to integrate your store with BitPay.
Adding the Payment Method
Note
To integrate your store with BitPay, you will first need to complete your Shift4 Payments application. You will also need to create an API token on your BitPay account. This can be done in your BitPay Account Dashboard
When creating the API token, make sure that the "Require Authentication" checkbox is not marked. For more complete information, please refer to BitPay's documentation for steps on creating/reviewing your API keys
- Log into your Shift4Shop Online Store Manager
- Using the left hand navigation menu, go to Settings >Payment
At the top of the page, you will see a "Recommended Payments" banner listing BitPay.
Important
You must first complete your Shift4 Payments setup to see the banner above. Furthermore, the Shift4 Payments method must also be enabled in order for BitPay to be available.
To continue:
- In the BitPay banner, click on the "Connect BitPay" button
You will now see two buttons/links:
- Create your BitPay account
If you haven't create a BitPay account yet, click this button to set one up.
- Already have an account?
Once you've set up your BitPay Account and API token, this link will let you enter it
The rest of the steps outlined here assume that you've already created your BitPay Account and your API token as mentioned at the start of this article.
- Click on the "Already have an account?" link
- Enter your BitPay API key and click "Submit"
Upon entering a valid API key, your store will add BitPay as a payment method.
