  7. Bitcoin Checkout

After you provide all the required information at checkout page the website will display the bitcoin payment information which will consist of the following:

• A QR Code
• A Bitcoin address

QR code represents a bitcoin address and payment amount.

QR codes make it easy to pay from a bitcoin wallet app on your smartphone (including the Coinbase app for Android or iOS).

Just scan the QR code with your bitcoin wallet app and it will pre-fill the recipient bitcoin address and the payment amount.

Once you send the transaction, the payment is complete.

If you can't scan QR code, you can also manually enter this as the recipient of a transaction in your bitcoin wallet.

To pay to a Bitcoin address, you'll need only these two pieces of information:

• The recipient's bitcoin address
• The amount of bitcoin to send
• !! Please note that the transfer amount must be exact (or higher) as indicated on the payment page !!

Both of these will be displayed on the payment page during checkout.

With the address and amount, simply enter them into the "send" form of your wallet and submit the transactions.

One you send the payment, new uncompleted transaction will appear at the payment page.

You can pay partially, but if you do so, don't close the payment window until all the transactions ate complete.

The payment page don't have any time limit, so the payment will be completed successfully even you've chosen the lowest bitcoin transfer fee.

After the payment appeared in the transactions, it takes some time to complete.

In some bitcoin wallets you can choose the fee rate that affects the completion time.

Once the payment is complete, it will be indicated in the transactions and in the payment status.
