Requirements
- Blesta version 3.1.0 or greater.
Installing Bitpay
- Visit [Settings] > [Company] > [Payment Gateways] > Available.
- Click the "Install" button within the Bitpay gateway listing.
Configuring Bitpay
To configure Bitpay, visit [Settings] > [Company] > [Payment Gateways] > Installed, and click the "Manage" button for the Bitpay payment gateway.
The Transaction Speed may be set to High, Medium, or Low.
- High: An invoice (in Bitpay) is considered 'confirmed' immediately upon receipt of payment.
- Medium: An invoice (in Bitpay) is considered 'confirmed' after 1 block confirmation (about 10 minutes after receipt of payment).
- Low: An invoice (in Bitpay) is considered 'confirmed' after 6 block confirmations (about 1 hour after receipt of payment).
The Transaction Speed has no effect on how quickly a payment is processed. Payment transactions are only approved in Blesta after the invoice (in Bitpay) has been set to 'completed', which is approximately an hour after receipt of payment.
Gateway Options
Currencies
Note that you do not have to use BTC for your currency. Bitpay will do the currency conversion automatically and request payment in the appropriate amount of Bitcoin. This means you can use the same currency you normally accept.
