Get ahead of the curve
As a startup being able to cut out as many fees as possible is very helpful. Especially when you are on a budget and want to integrate newer technologies to be forward thinking. With cryptocurrency becoming more popular a lot of the known merchants are able to get people to sign up for their gateways while charging so much just to process. With a little time and how to guide I was able to set this up. I ll be honest it was a bit of a learning curve but I have a little background in IT so I was able to set it up. I feel that with a little patience and time, if you are a DIYer or a person who doesnt mind learning, you can follow the guide and set up your own payment processing for crypto and bypass the stupid fees. BTC is always updating its app, and I like that it gives you customization options and you can have multiple stores. Its a great tool. I have not used it heavily but ill be ready once things take off. Thank you so much BTC Pay

asking for review message in dashboard
The plugin is actually quite good, but you get a nagging request for a review in your dashboard that keeps coming back. Since the last update it is finally possible to dismiss the request for reviews, which even kept showing after you gave a review.
