Just make it simple wherein you can make it different as well especially if you don't want all visitor's to see that you're literally expecting a tip from them. A word DONATE is a good option i think..since this keyword is very common in some webpage also especially when it comes crypto projects because it's very often, such news, announcements and etc.. Just give it a twist.  Wink

Good suggestion mate but that seems to be for e-commerce sites and checking out facility. Though it can be used on the niche webpage but it seems little too much for donation page.

Nah... I think it's as good as an invoice. Write “Tip me!” instead to avoid seeming like a purchase.

Just showing a bitcoin address will discourage someone from tipping you. Those days when you could dip on-chain have gone unless the donator is especially generous.

What you want can be implemented without a third party using lightning payments. Check BTCPay Server.

It’s just far better what mk4 is saying. Just paste the address and QR code.

Moreover, to get the feel for this you can checkout the mega sites like Coinmarket cap. Even those guys have just pasted the donation addresses at the bottom of their site. On top of that they have mentioned different coins so it’s  up to user what coin to choose and pay them the donations.

+1 to mk4, you can put your bitcoin address so any tips will directly to your bitcoin wallet or exchange (not advisable).
So this time, you will hard code your Bitcoin address from your website, and best thing here you can customized it if you are a coder, you can put it anywhere from your webpage and make some design on how to look good from the users.

If you absolutely don't want to use 3rd party software(including open-source), then just simply paste in your wallet address or qr code. Or if you want to be slightly more fancy, add a donate button(on your menu bar or at the bottom of the page) and use a modal pop-up with your wallets address/qrcode when clicked.

How would I go about accepting tips on a web page? I would prefer not to use any third party tool. I am envisioning a simple way to embed my BTC wallet public address or QR code and people can use it to tip.

I am thinking of doing this to avoid having google ads to help defray my web hosting fees, not to make any serious BTC, it is a niche webpage, but focused towards bitcoiners.

Any thoughts/successes/failures are welcome.
