Olodolo.com currently uses coinpayments.net for this. What benefits do you offer over their implementation? I have actually been looking for a nicer system to switch over to.

Hi there,

Munt is an easy to integrate and user friendly way to start accepting cryptocurrencies in your website. Munt handles things like email receipts and refunds if payments fail or if the customer has paid too much or too little. Munt is also customizable (more options coming soon) to fully represent your brand's look and feel. Have you tried our demo yet? Love to hear your thoughts on it.

Hi, I did try the demo. Based on it and your comment I see your product having the following benefits: refunds, (much)nicer UI, more customizable, and faster transactions (3 minutes? are you still accomplishing that when transfer times are generally slower than that?).

However CoinPayments is cheaper (0.5% per transaction), and supports many more coins and features. For example they can easily be set up to collect shipping addresses for me so that I don't have to. They do send a variety of receipt emails as well, but something nicer/customizable would be preferable. I could accomplish all of this using the CoinPayments API rather than the prebuilt buttons, but that would require a lot more work on my end.

I would be willing to move to something with a nicer, more customizable UI if the cost/feature gap was closed. Good luck with this!
