That is, instead of retailers having to litter their checkout page with a variety of payment options, PayPal Checkout’s new “smart payment buttons” will update to display the right set of options for each customer in each geography. That means retailers can more easily include alternative payment methods, like local wallets and country-specific options, alongside a PayPal button.


2016. WebMoney Merchant now accepts payments in Bitcoin



WebMoney payment system has added support for paying for goods and services with Bitcoin. This feature is available to merchants connected to the WebMoney Merchant. WebMoney has ensured the legal use of Bitcoin in payments by launching X-wallets with WMX title units (1000 WMX = $629 WMZ). When using these wallets, the exchange of Bitcoin for WMX is recorded in the public database bitcoin.org. Merchants whose stores operate on the Digiseller platform were among the first to receive the ability to accept Bitcoin payments. To do this, they need to set up an X-wallet on the Merchant WebMoney service. Cryptocurrency is credited to the merchant's account in WMX title units, which they can then exchange for other types of title units or Bitcoin.
