## Description

Seamlessly integrate Bitcoin, Ethereum and Nimiq payments into your webshop. Receive
the equivalent of your regular price in crypto directly in your wallet. Easy to 
integrate and free of charge. Beautifully designed and easy to use. Open source 
and decentralized.

**Features Include:**

 * Bitcoin, Ethereum and Nimiq support
 * Automatic conversion from supported store currencies like USD or EUR to crypto
   at latest market prices
 * Full order status feedback in your WooCommerce panel
 * Decentralized and non-proprietary
 * Configurable conversion and validation service providers
 * Configurable confirmation times with sensible defaults

_This Plugin is just getting started. Additional features such as instant and decentralized
Crypto-to-Euro swaps are being currently developed._

#### How Does It Work?

 1. The customer selects “Cryptocurrency Checkout” and is sent to the Nimiq Checkout
    page.
 2. Cryptocurrency Checkout by Nimiq offers to take payments in Bitcoin, Ethereum or
    Nimiq.
 3. The customer selects a cryptocurrency and pays. An order is created in the WooCommerce
    panel and set to ‘on-hold’ by the plugin.
 4. As soon as the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain, the plugin automatically
    updates the order status.

#### How To Integrate It?

 1. Install and activate the plugin
 2. Find the **Cryptocurrency Checkout by Nimiq** in your list of plugins and click‘
    Settings’
 3. Enter addresses and public keys of the currencies you want to accept
 4. Tell your customers about your new payment option!

Check out the documentation, with a more in-depth [tutorial](https://nimiq.github.io/tutorials/wordpress-payment-plugin-installation).

#### Where Does The Crypto Go?

You provide your wallet addresses in the WooCommerce admin panel and receive the
crypto directly from your customer.

If you are new to crypto, you can create a Bitcoin and Ethereum wallet with [Jaxx](https://jaxx.io)(
a third-party application). For Nimiq, you don’t need to rely on third-parties and
can create an address in just seconds and without the need to provide personal data,
at [safe.nimiq.com](https://safe.nimiq.com).

#### What Is Nimiq?

Nimiq is a blockchain project, NIM is its cryptocurrency, designed for ease-of-use.
Sending, receiving and storing NIM is as easy as using Facebook. Creating an account
is even easier.

Give it a try: [nimiq.com](https://nimiq.com)

#### Why Is This Plugin For Free?

We believe that cryptocurrencies are the future and will provide a better, more 
democratic and more open form of money. With this Checkout Plugin, we want to provide
a tool for everyone interested in crypto. By providing BTC and ETH payments together
with NIM, we wish to support cryptocurrencies in general while illustrating just
how much more easy and convenient Nimiq is.

### Acknowledgement

This Nimiq payment gateway is based on skyverge’s [WooCommerce Offline Gateway](https://github.com/bekarice/woocommerce-gateway-offline),
which in turn forks the WooCommerce core “Cheque” payment gateway.

No need for a payment gateway, just added my account address and payments went through
without any problem.
