I've been using Blockonomics on my websites to accept Bitcoins.

They're pretty amazing. Their customer support helped me in implementing their API on my website.
They also have different modules for different platforms.

Also, the funds get transferred directly to your wallet, so there's no need to trust them.

I'd definitely recommend them.

Here's a link to their website: http://blockonomics.co

Hope this helps.

Anyone know of any other ways to accept bitcoin? I really want a service like BitPay that pays out in bitcoin and doesnt require a boat load of personal/buisness information.

There are electrum tutorial above you, you should to follow the tutorial, do not lazy to reading the instructions.
I think electrum features is the best so far.

Otherwise if you want using an easy way bitpay is have good credibility.

You can have a look at this article https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/How_to_accept_Bitcoin,_for_small_businesses
I have used block.io api before but they have limitation on number of bitcoin address we can create per app, their premium rate is very high.
Blockchain.info works good but you need to apply for api key and may take few days to get it.
blocktrail api works good and they are free to use.

Other simple merchant solution using widgets/plugins are gourl, bitpay.

I prefer to blocktrail api.

We are CoinGate, a Bitcoin payment processor startup from Europe, and our website is https://coingate.com - feel free to check us out.

If you wish to accept Bitcoin and keep the Bitcoin that you earned - we do not require verification at all. We simply check if your website does not sell anything illegal, and we're ready to move forward. We have our simple to integrate API as well as payment buttons and 9 eCommerce plugins. Our fee is a flat 1% of the orders processed.

Maybe this one can help you out https://blockchain.info/api/
You can choose what api fits to your needs merchant api sending or receiving api it is more easy unlike before..
And you will be guided through their guide.

If you need help I can hook you up with blockchain.info. The API is very easy to use for starting developers. Also fee-wise they are good.
Coinbase and Bitpay are good alternatives too but i would advice stick with blockchain.info

Their api is down few days / month.

Better not use them.

You have 2 options :

1. Accept Bitcoins and keep them as Bitcoins [ use https://coinsimple.com/]
2. Accept Bitcoins and pick up in FIAT [you have coinify / Bitpay] - you should never use Coinbase, never.

Do you only need to generate payment addresses on your web server, or do you need to check whether payments have been made, too?

To generate payment addresses, HD key derivation (BIP32, see https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0032.mediawiki) would be the most appropriate - your webserver would only need to know the public parent key from which the payment addresses are generated. There are Javascript implementations available, so integrating that into your Nodejs software should be fairly easy.

To check whether payments have been made, your server could either run a full node and use its API (but you wrote that you want to avoid that), or use an external service for checking address balances. If you just need to check payments manually, any old HD wallet should do.

You can implement BlockTrail API. Little programming knowledge needed but they don't ask you for any personal information and receiving payments with their webhook is extremely easy to set up

BitPay and Coinbase are way too centralized for my small website. I don't have the information they require and I want payout using bitcoins. Is electrum secure? I dont want to take any unneccessary risks.

Yes It's secure and I don't think there is anything to be worried about here. In fact , It's possible to keep the private keys off the server as mentioned in the URL I gave you above and that make it much better.

Running a payment processor would be much better then running a full node (when It comes to resources etc... ) . Bitpay is probably the best choice but there is fees after reaching +30 transactions as mentioned here : https://bitpay.com/pricing then there is Coinbase https://support.coinbase.com/customer/en/portal/articles/1521945-how-do-i-accept-bitcoin-payments-on-my-website- or you could use Electrum but It's something basic : http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/merchant.html

I am looking to accept bitcoin on my website. Is there an alternative to running a full node? I want the security of not giving someone else access to my coins. I read about SPV clients but I have no idea if that would be appropriate for a payment processor to use. Please help me out. I am using nodejs on my web server.
