Can someone who has paid BTC for NewEgg purchases help me out possibly?
I just tried to do this for the first time but got stuck at this point:
- I want to pay from either my Bittrex wallet as I sold off a few alts in order to pay this invoice (I assume this is possible).
- After choosing Bitcoin payment option on NewEgg, the bitpay window pops up wit hteh QR code (on the scan tab) for a phone scan. Since I want to pay with exchange wallet, I click on the Copy tab and the exact amount of BTC appears, along with a URL that starts with bitcoin... https//bitpay.com.... followed by a string of numbers that doesnt look long enough to be a BTC address.
- The instruction say to copy that full URL into your wallet's send screen, but I don't think this will work in the BTC address field send screen on Bittrex, will it? Doesnt that need to be a standard BTC address only?
Am i missing something or can you not send payment from an exchange wallet like this?
Does Newegg accept BTC payments? Newegg.ca didn't give me this option during my last purchase last month
Yeah, newegg.com absolutely does. I did a bit more reading and it seems likely that you need to open a bitpay account/wallet in order to use that option but any advice from Phil or others who have used it would still be appreciated.
cant help here I dont pay newegg with btc.
This happen to me just last week when I tried to pay my January hosting bill at GND.
After talking to GND.... the solution was to install Bitpay app on your mobile (I use a Samsung Note 8 ).
I never did have to do that - looks like Bitpay changed their internal process and forcing everyone to use their app.
Fund your Bitpay wallet (treat it like a mobile wallet) and use their builtin QR scanner to pay.
Good luck.
Trying to pay Newegg from an exchange wallet has been VERY PROBLEMATICAL all along - the last couple months Bitpay has been having major issues even working with THEIR OWN SPECIFIED "works well" wallet options.
2 of my last 3 Newegg purchases have been BORKED BY BITPAY, the last one is still "in process" of resolution.
I'm about to change suppliers, if Bitpay RIPS ME OFF AGAIN ON REFUND of the current issue, as it was 100% CAUSED BY THEIR ISSUES I HAVE ALREADY NOTIFIED THEM OF AND THEY INSIST ON BLOWING OFF.
At this point, I don't trust "Bitpay" as far as I can throw them.
Newegg was a LOT better off before they switched to using this INCOMPETANT excuse for a payment processor.
Does anyone know if "Bitpay" is owned by Paypal?
It would explain a TON.
