Description

Sovereign Crypto Payments is a simple and free payment gateway for WooCommerce. No need to register anywhere, payments are made directly to your wallet without redirecting through a 3rd party website. You can either add a list of Bitcoin addresses or enter a Master Public Key (MPK), deriving a unique address for each order. MPK-mode currently only supports Legacy-wallets (xpub), while the regular mode works with all address formats (Legacy, Segwit, Bech32). This plugin is Bitcoin-only for now, more cryptocurrencies will be added soon. Next on the list is Monero.

Payments are verified in real-time via blockstream.info block explorer, orders are automatically set to processing after 1 confirmation. Bitcoin price is sourced from bittrex, poloniex and gate.io. Stores with non-USD currencies retrieve rates from exchangeratesapi.io.

Sovereign Crypto Payments was originally forked from Agile Cash.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to use a Master Public Key (MPK)?

A Master Public Key is used to derive BTC addresses directly from your wallet, without having to add addresses manually and assuring each address is only used once. To use it, you need the wallet software Electrum (electrum.org). Create a Legacy-wallet and go to Wallet -> Information to get your MPK (starting with xpub).

Per default Electrum only displays the first 25 addresses. To increase that number (e.g. to 500), click View -> Show Console and enter the following commands:

wallet.change_gap_limit(500)
wallet.storage.write()
