All of the bitcoin wallet providers such as blockchain.info provide apis to easily integrate payment options to websites. Give it a read for 2 to 3 times, test it and you can easily implement it.

As Patatas already stated, the API of blockchain.info is good for your case. Another option is Coinbase. The service also offers an API which you could easily implement in your website to receive payments. The advantage over blockchain.info is that you can transfer the received Bitcoin(s) directly into fiat money, if destired.

Here's the link to the coinbase API https://developers.coinbase.com/
To add to this Bitpay also offers a similar API and can be cashed out to multiple currencies https://bitpay.com/ , if your site was made from one of multiple pre-made carts or other types of popular site software they may already have a plugin for you to use.

Yes,if you want to avoid all the complexities and simply implement send /receive payments on your web.Blockchain.info's API is good enough.The code is already provided.Only problem they have is the scalibility issue.The API is inefficient to spread over a large audience.Also,the code is available in multiple languages so upgrading the existing project won't be a problem.

Hi !

I'm willing to provide a simple "Add fund" button where my user will get a QR code and the address to copy/paste and proceed to payment from his own wallet, do you think i must rely on some kind of payment gateway ? because i see the blockchain.info api good enough for such a feature.
