Merchant Tools[edit]
Apirone is for merchants using an eCommerce solution such as WooCommerce, Virtuemart, Opencart, OcStore and Magento2. For merchants without one of these eCommerce solutions, they can use a RESTful API to create their own solution.
Fees[edit]
Unlike most Bitcoin payment gateway, Apirone does not charge a flat fee of 1% of the value of the sale. They only charge a fixed fee of 0.0002 BTC by transaction, regardless of the amount of the order.
Segwit[edit]
The segregated protocol Segwit is supported. This is all the addresses, starting with "3" (P2SH-P2WPKH), or native address, starting with «bc1» (P2WPKH, Bech32). A Bitcoin blockchain explorer that support Segwit, the fourth of its kind, is also available on the website.

No registration needed to start using the extension and accepting bitcoin. No need to complete a KYC/Documentation too. Not converting bitcoin into fiat money does not entail the obligation to provide your personal information to the Banks.
