Topic: how to make bitpay payment (Read 175 times)
They’re simply trying to increase their market dominance or something of the sort by enforcing BIP70 (the protocol that make some the payment addresses so). BitPay gives an explanation along the lines of ‘It’s better for security’, but there’s pretty massive opposition to the BIP as many wallets don’t work with the URLS or QRs generated by BitPay. Searching ‘BitPay BIP70’ yields more information on the topic, and Samourai Wallet’s blog and this reddit post are two good reads on the topic as well.
I just recenty need to make one payment through BitPay, and since I use Ledger Nano S + Electrum it was strange to me that there is no address for payment. I try to copy link direct to Electrum and it worked that way, but I agree that this is not user friendly and that may confuse some users. They should simply show payment address in main window, how is it hard to do that?
Also I notice they suggest to user pay fee of 8$ or 100 000 satoshi what's ridiculous these days when you can send transaction just for 2000-5000 satoshi or even less.

fuck them for changing the way how to pay.
That's what happens when they put people in place who don't belong anywhere near a business that's related to ecommerce.
I find it rather rude and incompetent from BitPay to not immediately shift back to how everything was before. It might not have been perfect, but it's 100 times better than the rubbish they put people through right now. This nonsense can cost businesses revenue with how people might just not buy whatever they planned to buy initially. It once again shows that we need to discard these centralized incentives.
Every negative event has a positive trigger, and in this case that trigger is more awareness for BTCPay and all related sources.
Additionally, it can't hurt to contact sellers that utilize Bitpay as a way to accept BTC to consider alternatives such as BTCPay. It'll be better for all of us in the future if more merchants switch off BTCPay, and it does not take a lot of time to do so. We shouldn't have to use all these tools just to make a BTC transaction because Bitpay forces us to.
Found that the noscript url-"hack" doesn't work anymore and made a quick app for extracting the transaction requirements out of Bitpay invoices (the same way supporting wallets do): https://github.com/alexk111/DeBitpay Hope it will help 
You can also just use one of those tools:For Bitcoin payments: https://decoder.bip70.org/

thank you! this worked 
If your wallet doesn't support the new payment protocol from Bitpay, you can get the address and pay manually by doing this:
1. Go to the 'Copy' tab;
2. Copy the link (which looks like this: bitcoin:?r=https://bitpay.com/i/XXXXXXXXXXXXX);
3. Get the invoice ID, which is the part that I marked bold (everything after bitpay.com/i/)';
4. Go to https://bitpay.com/invoice-noscript?id=YOUR-INVOICE-ID
You should see the address and amount to send. Then, just make the payment.
