We at Blockonomics work to enable e-commerce entrepreneurs with the best possible tools to accept bitcoin payments. In continuing to expand our offerings we announce today, with a lot of enthusiasm and excitement, the launch of our new plugin for the Opencart e-commerce platform users.

We chose Opencart as our new platform to offer our solution because of the consistent inquiries from Opencart community to be able to use Blockonomics to accept Bitcoin payments and now, all the 400,000+ e-commerce websites using Opencart platform can start accepting payments via Blockonomics.

If you are new to Blockonomics, we started in 2015 and currently support more than 2000 merchants to accept Bitcoin payments. We are the plugin of choice for all the popular platforms like Wordpress, Prestashop, Magento and WHMCS. Merchants who use our plugin enjoy the following distinctive features :

1. Decentralized & Permissionless:

Just like Bitcoin, Blockonomics believes in the philosophy of decentralization and individual freedom. Therefore, you just have to have an email id to get started with us. No Paperwork, No Barriers.

2. Direct to Wallet:

Bitcoins flow from your customer’s wallet to your wallet, directly. We at no point in time store your bitcoins and you have complete control over your bitcoins. This also saves a ton of your transaction fees and keeps the mempool less congested.

3. Pricing: Flat fee | No Hidden Costs | Pre-paid

Blockonomics’ fee is flat and there are absolutely no hidden charges. The plugin is absolutely free of cost and you do not pay any upfront fee. We charge a flat fee of 1% on each transaction you receive — 66% lower than Paypal.

Easy to install and get working. On my site, I only accept crypto as a central element of an existence proof for the value of cryptocurrency. Bitcoin payments made it possible for me to configure my site to only accept bitcoin and alt coins.”

Future plans for Blockonomics users:
