Stellar Payments

What is Stellar payment?

Stellar is an open-source, decentralized crypto project designed to facilitate cross-border transactions and exchanges with any currency pairs. Stellar was founded by Jed McCaleb, founder of Mt.Gox, and Joyce Kim, a former lawyer, in 2014.

They created the nonprofit Stellar Development Foundation and launched the project in July. The protocol uses Lumens (XLM) as its cryptocurrency, but many users still call it stellar, as it was its original name. Stellar has some strong partners, like IBM, KlickEx, ICICI Bank, etc.

The process of getting started will take no more than a couple of minutes. It involves registering for a NOWPayments account, generating your API key, and integrating our payment gateway into your website simply by copying a chunk of HTML code.

NOWPayments allows everyone to start accepting Stellar payments on their website. There are quite a few different types of integration: donation widgets, payment widgets, invoices, and even plugins for all major e-commerce providers. Getting started is simple, and it goes like this:

  • First, you need to sign up for a NOWPayments account. The process shouldn’t take more than a minute!
  • Next, you need to select the cryptocurrency to use and add a new API key to use for transactions. Go to Store settings and click on Add new Key.
  • Paste this API key in the required place for any type of Stellar payment gateway. It can be our widget, button, or invoice module.
  • The integration will be active on your website, and you’re ready to accept payments in Stellar!
