bitcard/bitmerchant

A free, self-hostable bitcoin wallet made for merchants.

==================

Bitmerchant — A free, self-hostable Bitcoin payment processor.

Bitmerchant is a full Bitcoinj-based merchant-services platform. It lets you accept bitcoin payments or donations on your own website, without having to go through an intermediary service like coinbase or bitpay; the purchases or donations go directly into a wallet that you control, running on your server.

Features include

• A fully-functioning bitcoin wallet, in a slick bootstrap-based web GUI.
• A well-documented API.
• A slick payment-button generator that can create orders using your own native currency.
• Refund orders at the click of a button.
• Uses the BIP70 Payment protocol to ensure correct payment amounts, and refund addresses.
• Implement your own SSL certs.
