Front Range Hosting, Now Accepting Bitcoin

[VPSCorey]

FYI we have started accepting Bitcoin for payments utilizing bitpay as our processor.

So question.

Do they just do bank transfers to you for your payments? Or do they send it over paypal or something?

You will receive a direct deposit into your bank account every business day.

But who eats the fee's? It'd suck if you get like $20/d but you're forking $5/d in transfer fees.

I chose convert to USD and transfer to bank rather than keep BTC and deal with the fluctuating values.  Spares me if there's a currency crash on the BTC side.

Good job!

I see that you've only started offering it recently, but are you getting a lot of use on it? I'm always looking for good ways for people to give us money.

I've been accepting bitcoin since December and receive less than 1% payment with it, so I offer the option, but is far from popular.

A lot of providers have started accepting bitcoin, I think it's going to take some time for everyone to get to used to it.

I have had a few orders with it so far, but it's not going to beat out PayPal anytime soon.

If WHMCS would allow me I'd discount all orders in bitcoin by 15 - 20% right off the top just for the sheer savings in fees and hassle.

Because of creditcard or Paypal?
