And for those that need to buy something with Bitpay (because that's what the seller uses) and noticed they don't give you the address and amount to send the coins directly to it, you can bypass their BIP70 payment protocol easily with any of these tools:

[1] https://decoder.bip70.org/
[2] https://alexk111.github.io/DeBitpay/

Or you can do that yourself:

The web service that does this is open source, meaning that you can use a local copy or just do it by yourself.

Equivalent cURL
Code:
curl -X GET https://bitpay.com/i/$BITPAYINVOICEID -H 'accept: application/payment-request'

Equivalent Python

Code:
from requests import get
url = 'https://bitpay.com/i/BITPAYINVOICEID'
resp = get(url, headers={'Accept' : 'application/payment-request'}).json()
print(resp)

The first one is also described in the same URL you linked above. Just use python or do a GET request with the "Accept: ..." header to the URL of the invoice and the response will be all the data you need.

With each passing day, Bitpay service gets worse, starting with forcing everyone to use them BIP70 payment protocol, high fees, selling / sharing personal data, and more.

If you are a merchant and want to accept BTC payments, go to BTCPay Server.
