The first thing you need to do is install and activate the NOWPayments For WooCommerce plugin. For more details, see our step-by-step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

First, you will need to log in to your NOWPayments account and head over to Payment Tools » Donations from the menu on the left.

As soon as you add the wallet, NOWPayments will create an API key. You will need this key when adding a payment option to your WooCommerce store or WordPress site.

That said, let’s take a look at how to get started with Bitcoin and integrate it into your WordPress website.

Setting Up a Bitcoin Wallet

You will need to visit the Coinbase Wallet website and click the ‘Download Coinbase Wallet’ button.

However, not all payment gateways are available everywhere. Some of your clients may not have PayPal available in their region, and others may not want to use their credit cards.

You can now save the Bitcoin wallet address from Coinbase in a Notepad file, as you will need it in the next step.

Setting Up a Digital Payment Processing Provider

Here, you can create a link for your donation widget and choose which fields to show and make required in the widget.

Once you’ve entered these details, you need to click the user agreement checkbox, reCAPTCHA, and the ‘Create an account’ button.

Bitcoin offers an alternate payment method that anyone worldwide can use.

After entering these details, don’t forget to save your changes to activate the payment gateway.

After that, you will receive a confirmation email.

Under the ‘IPN secret key’ field, go ahead and click the ‘Generate’ button.

After completing these steps, you are ready to accept payments on your website.

Accepting Bitcoin Payments in WooCommerce With NOWPayments

Don’t forget to click the ‘Save’ button when you are done.

Next, you will need to verify that you have copied the recovery phrase. Coinbase will ask you to select the first and last words in the phrase.

Once you accept payments in Bitcoin, you can transfer them to your bank account or keep them in your wallet. The value of Bitcoin is increasing over time, and it is likely to continue as more people start using the Bitcoin cryptocurrency. Plus, you don’t have to worry about chargebacks or disputes with Bitcoin payments.

You can click the ‘Submit’ button when you are done.

Simply click the link in the email to verify your account, and then log in to NOWPayments to view the dashboard.

You can navigate to Bitcoin and click the copy to clipboard option to copy the wallet address. As an alternative, there is also an option to generate a QR code.

First, you will need a Bitcoin wallet. This is a piece of software that you will use to send or receive Bitcoins and store them safely. It’s just like a traditional bank account but for cryptocurrencies.

After that, you can choose ‘BTC’ from the dropdown menu and add Bitcoin as the currency.

Once you are done, simply click the green tick button to add the wallet.

Once you have done that, simply check the terms and privacy policy checkbox and click the ‘Submit’ button.

Next, you can scroll down to the Instant Payment Notifications section.

Now, just publish your blog post or page to see the donation widget in action. Your visitors can now choose Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for donation.

You have successfully created a Coinbase wallet.

WordPress allows you to build an eCommerce store in minutes using WooCommerce or other WordPress eCommerce plugins.

After that, Coinbase will show you a recovery phrase to keep your wallet safe. You can copy the phrase and keep it safe in a password manager or anywhere else.

Next, head over to the Settings » Payment settings from the menu on your left.

After that, you need to go back to WordPress and edit or create a new page or post where you’d like to display your Bitcoin donation widget and button.

On the next screen, Coinbase will ask you to set a password.

You can find both keys in your NOWPayments Payment settings tab.
