Coinbase Commerce API launches for merchants to accept cryptocurrency

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency exchange company Coinbase has announced the live launch of the Coinbase Commerce API for accepting cryptocurrencies. The Commerce API makes it accessible for merchants to integrate cryptocurrency payments straight into their e-commerce solution.

As of now, instead of manually creating payment buttons or hosted pages to accept cryptocurrency payments, merchants can dynamically generate them using the Commerce API. Those interested can check out the developer documentation for more information.

Coinbase Commerce is a new service that allows merchants to accept multiple cryptocurrencies directly into their own user-controlled wallet. Coinbase Commerce has been designed as a free non-custodial solution for accepting cryptocurrency, so merchants can maintain full control over their funds.
