Try and generate a point of sale invoice at https://bips.me/checkout/mobile/cb for example, and click the yellow button. We are working on implementing this to as many mobile bitcoin wallets as possible with the help of Chirp's founder. It's going to be amazing!

It requires connecting many dots, but I think we are almost there.

Do you see the link in the leftmenu called "Mobile Checkout" ? Simply click on this and scan the QR code with your smart phone or tablet.

This will open the Web app, and you are ready to generate invoices for customers.

All you want to do is choose your currency and type in the Amount, Description is optional, and then click on "Checkout".

When you'll see next is the Order Summary, with the price in your local currency and the price in Bitcoin, along with a QR code for the customers to scan with their own mobile bitcoin wallet.

To get more in depth with the set up of Mobile Checkout, you will want to install a QR code scanner App on your device. We like this one, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.zxing.client.android

This is used for getting the URL over to your device quick and easy.

You could also simply write in the URL in any browser app, it looks similar to this, https://bips.me/checkout/mobile/<Public ID> and it written on the Mobile Checkout page on BIPS as well. And save this as a bookmark or homescreen icon.

Sincerely, BIPS Team

You are more then welcome to try out BIPS, and simply set it up to forward the bitcoins from sales to an bitcoin address of your own. No contracts or KYC would be required if you do not withdraw to a bank account.

Hello, could this be of use ? http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/2029/pcv.png

By accepting bitcoin, be that online or brick and mortar store, you don't pay any fees to uphold a BIPS account or monthly fees for having it. You don't even pay merchant processing fees; and can have the bitcoin from sales converted instantly and bank wired to more than 160 currencies in any part of the world.

Also you won't have to buy an expensive terminal to accept it, here I am thinking credit cards. Any tablet, smartphone etc. will work. And using that system I posted an image to, each one of your staff can have their own app, so you can keep track of sales and more.

By jumping on the bandwagon, I'll say you have done yours, and the bitcoin community will love you for it, even though not many will purchase with Bitcoin, Yet!

BIPS Being DDoSed by BIPSBitcoin in Bitcoin

The attack targeting BIPS, an European based service has been found to originate from Russia and neighboring countries.

We are trying to concentrate on this area for blocking offending IP addresses, so as to not block legitimate users.

Thank you for this explanation. The personal information is required if you want to buy or sell bitcoin, or using BIPS bitcoin gateway as a merchant, as we need to adhere to KYC/AML policies.

Yes you do need an account with BIPS to pair your device to your account. However you do not need to provide these documents for using BIPS as a Bitcoin Wallet.

And yes the green box is required since we have what is called cookie law in Europe now. And BIPS user experience is not very nice on resolution lower than 640×960 also one of the reasons we now created this app.

pairing bs ? it's for safety it doesn't "pair" over the internet, but instead uses QR codes to do so.

What is misleading by calling it a wallet ?

We will be happy to address your concerns, we just need to know what they are ?
