Introduction
BlockchainAPI is a Bitcoin and Ethereum payment processor API designed for simplicity, reliability, and compatibility.
One of the difficulties involved with receiving bitcoin payments is the need to generate a unique address for each new user or invoice. These addresses need to be monitored and stored securely. Our API takes care of the generation and monitoring of addresses. We will notify your server using a simple callback whenever a payment is received.
Our API here at BlockchainAPI was designed to be extremely easy to use. No need to sign up, pay for a plan, or submit a merchant application. Just send a simple GET request to the API to generate a deposit address for your customer, and handle GET request callbacks sent when payments are received.
Remember that this API is fully compatible with existing applications based on Blockchain.info's old Receive Payments API v1. The API methods work exactly the same way. The API is structured in this way because after Blockchain.info took down their original Receive Payments API v1, many users were left without a merchant payment solution. We are now here to provide that solution to merchants like you. Feel free to use your existing code or applications to utilize our API; simply change your system's configured root API URL from "blockchain.info" to "blockchainapi.org" and you'll be all good.
