Bitcoin Network Is Live on CoinsSend: Accept BTC Payments

 

CoinsSend now supports the Bitcoin network, so you can accept BTC from customers worldwide using the same merchant tools you already know:

Invoices, Static Wallets, and built-in conversion options.

 

 

What is Bitcoin and how does it work?

 

Bitcoin is a decentralized peer-to-peer network secured by proof-of-work mining.

Transactions are broadcast to the network and get included into blocks by miners. Once included, they start receiving

confirmations as new blocks are added on top of that block.

 

 

What are confirmations (and why they matter)?

 

A confirmation means the transaction has been included in a Bitcoin block and becomes increasingly

difficult to reverse. Each additional confirmation further reduces risk—many businesses choose their confirmation

threshold based on ticket size and risk policy.

 

 

Why BTC network fees can vary

 

Bitcoin fees are market-driven: during busy periods, users compete for limited block space by paying higher fees for

faster inclusion; during quieter periods, fees typically drop.

How to accept Bitcoin (BTC) on CoinsSend

 

There are two main ways businesses accept BTC with CoinsSend:

 

 

1) Invoices (best for orders & checkouts)

 

Use invoices when you need a payment tied to a specific order (e-commerce purchases, SaaS, services).

You generate an invoice, share the link/QR, and track status updates in your dashboard and via webhooks.

 

 

Example: Create an Invoice (BTC)

 

POST /v1/invoices
Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY>
{
"amount": "0.0012",
"currency": "BTC",
"network": "BITCOIN",
"order_id": "ORDER-2048",
"success_url": "https://your-site.com/success",
 "webhook_url": "https://your-site.com/webhooks/coinssend"
}

 

 

Note: Exact fields/endpoints may differ depending on your integration setup—use the Invoices section in the CoinsSend API docs.

 

 

2) Static Wallets (best for deposits & top-ups)

 

Static Wallets are ideal for deposits (user balances, marketplace funding, Telegram bots, donation pages).

Generate a permanent BTC address, assign it to a user/label, and credit the balance when incoming BTC is detected.

 

 

Example: Create a Static Wallet (BTC)

 

POST /v1/static-wallets
Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY>
{
"network": "BITCOIN",
"currency": "BTC",
"label": "user_7781_btc_deposit"
}

 

 

Note: For exact parameters and response formats, check the Static Wallets section in the CoinsSend API docs.

Conversion options: Auto conversion and manual conversion

 

Auto conversion (toggle in dashboard)

 

CoinsSend supports Auto-Convert: automatically convert incoming payments into your preferred currency

(for example, BTC → USDT) in real time. You can use it for deposits and withdrawals and apply custom

limits/ranges depending on your flow.

 

 

Manual conversion (one-click in dashboard)

 

Prefer manual control? You can also do manual conversion directly in your dashboard via the

Convert button—useful when you want to convert only specific receipts or time the conversion yourself.
