That's a smart move if you're looking to add cryptocurrencies as a payment method and can use a QR code instead of a barcode, which is what most crypto users and merchants do. Most wallets today have a QR code address generator that can be used to receive bitcoins.
CoinPayments can be the best option as a payment gateway, You can try it.

That looks very unprofessional. Imagine when you go somewhere and they ask you to scan the paper that's attached on the window with adhesive tape. Cmon, I wouldn't enter that store again.
Well, OP may be tight on budget, probably a small business owner not always going to invest much on something expensive to get started. For local business, bitcoin payment is not the primary option of payment. Just a small, well designed cardboard with a QR code on it for scan and pay can make the job done.
It will look good and professional on the cash counter table.

I remember this script for custom QR code creation. it is a demo, but for the purpose you need, it is fully functional.
you can adapt your QR to your personal design and add a label so that it is clearly recognizable.

Guys I am looking forward to implementing crypto payment for my business, I am a fashion designer and I want to start accepting bitcoin first but my question is how can I create a barcode of my wallet address on a paper and put it on the wall so that my customers can just scan it and send my payment instead of asking for my Bitcoin address every time...
That looks very unprofessional. Imagine when you go somewhere and they ask you to scan the paper that's attached on the window with adhesive tape. Cmon, I wouldn't enter that store again.Invest a little bit and implement payment system where unique address will be generated for your customers. I suggest you to let them choose between Legacy Address and Segwit Address. It will be better if you add not only bitcoin but other useful and popular altcoins like Ethereum, Ripple, Matic, Litecoin, etc.
This payment method should be comfortable for you too, that's why I suggest you to invest a little bit in payment system. It will be comfortable if user has a touchscreen panel where he chooses coin type, address type and then scans the QR code from that screen.

Thanks for this. Pretty straight forward. How about for altcoins does this work on other wallets too?
Most of the wallets have this option like for metamask also you have qr code on which you can recieve your ETH payments and tokens it support so it's simple thing to do and receive direct payments in your wallet through it.But yes as others have said there are many other options which can suit his business style like third party software but as he asked for qr code answered the same.

Printing a qr code code on a piece of paper and sticking it on a wall doesn't seem like a practical idea and it lacks professionalism, to be honest.
What about the BTCPay Server Point of Sale App. It's more convenient as it Wil generate a new address for each sale which is important if you value your customers privacy (and yours) and you won't have to worry about whom paid for what or telling each customer how each item costs (not to mention the hassle of converting from local currency to btc).

I am assuming you like to follow MFS services. Often I see small shops or business use QR codes to accept MFS payments. Yea, the idea is pretty good, or you may use the payment gateway to change address every time. Otherwise, if you want to stick with an address then follow bitmover and create a QR code for your address and print it. It's pretty easy to use but not well privacy protected since many users will use the same address to send Bitcoin.

That's a nice move. You might consider using QR code instead of barcode. QR code is widely in use right now and most of the smartphones today can read QR code compared to the barcode. Most wallets today have a QR code address generator which can be use for receiving bitcoins. I also suggest to use static bitcoin address for receiving payments given that there might be a unseen confusion when you audit your sales. But if you have a wallet address in mind to use on your sales, You can follow @bitmover instructions December 23, 2022, 09:16:18 AM

One simple solution to this would be using a wallet with QR code, even popular wallets like MyCelium have QR code option so you can use a device like a mobile phone on your counter itself with QR code on the screen, this will create a new QR code on every transaction, in case you don't want such hassle even a static QR code based on one address is enough. I know some 3rd party apps as well which provide this facility. Even Binance pay is an option but obviously it's more like a 3rd party wallet as they don't provide you the key. copper member

Suggest you to use your local Bitcoin wallet app that you knew most people using so that you can attract more customers rather than make them adjust for you by downloading non custodial wallet app.
In my country we have coins.ph for Bitcoin wallet. It’s custodial wallet but most of the people here that has Bitcoin use it in there everyday transactions so I’m the one who adjust and use this wallet to received there Bitcoin payment and just transfer it to my wallet for fast transfer since it’s transaction is just internal transfer which doesn’t need confirmation.
Congratulations in advance for implementing Bitcoin as payment to your business.

Why print a paper when you can use one of these payment processors instead?[1]
CoinOS (web-based) is pretty simple to use. Create an account, type the amount, choose the type of invoice (LN or BTC address), a QR is generated and you're done.

You are right about using payment processors there are some payment service providers where you can use bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and some of them will instantly exchange the assets for fiat and make it ready for you to withdraw.
He can also create his own payment system if he got enough knowledge about writ a payment interface.
But regardless of these, some people the simple way and prefer just printing the QR code for their clients which can be a good first step for their business accepting cryptocurrencies.

my question is how can I create a barcode of my wallet address on a paper and put it on the wall so that my customers can just scan it and send my payment instead of asking for my Bitcoin address every time...
I suppose you already have the bitcoin address then.
The simplest method is just printing your qr from any blockc explorer.
For example , go to mempool.space , enter your adress and print it .
Example:
https://mempool.space/address/1ChipWGhJtEWCeSq3cra4HmKhvYqe8Tvty
Alternatively, as your store grows, you will need to generate different addresses
Using the same address everytime people will know your transaction history, which is bad for you and your customers privacy. You may want to generate a new address every few buys.

That’s great to know that you are moving up one step forward and implementing the Bitcoin ecosystem in your business. Just a few tips that before accepting the payments, make sure that cryptocurrencies are legal in your country, else if it isn’t, then you might seriously face legal issues. Moreover you can’t send BTC to bar codes, rather a QR code is attached with Bitcoin addresses. Many popular wallets like Electreum and Blockchain.com have QR code feature. Just print it out, and whenever someone wants to send Bitcoins, they will scan the QR code and will send the desired amount.

On top of what's been mentioned above you could also get a small screen to handle payments (a trezor works too but the screen on that is very small) and then use it like you would a card terminal (and have it set up in a similar way) to handle invoices you send it and display them there (it could be as simple as hooking it up to a computer and dragging the qr code invoice generated onto the other screen with a computer mouse.
December 23, 2022, 07:39:28 AM
Just to make it clear, Bitcoin addresses is usually encoded in QR codes, not bar codes (the kind you see slapped on grocery store products and books). That doesn't mean there's anything stopping you from slapping a barcode of your BTC address, but most phones only come with QR code readers.
December 23, 2022, 06:17:28 AM
Congrats mate. This is a smooth move. Ive been interested also on this kinf of topic since I am into crypto and maybe if got some funds to run a business planning to implement too.

You have done well for wanting to adopt BTC as a means of payment for your services. I believe others who know you would definitely follow your steps as it would be a competition now since they have seen you do such. This would ease your customers some stress for those who are into bitcoin and also it would help create awareness to those patronizing you and are not informed properly about bitcoin. You will have a work to do by explaining to them how the process works.
As for the barcode, it is very easy to generate. As far as you have a bitcoin wallet address, automatically you have a barcode attached to that particular wallet address. If you are using trust wallet for instance, when you open your wallet dashboard, you click on bitcoin then the next page pops up and you will see send and receive, you click on receive then your address and barcode pops up that's it for you. You can screenshot it for printing. That would be very much easier and faster.
I hope this suggestion helps a little

Pretty good move. receiving payments in various types of payment methods will indeed bring convenience to customers who will make transactions or payments to you. But my question is whether the rules for accepting payments with bitcoin in your area are allowed? I'm just worried about you. However, if there is no special attention from local government regulations regarding this matter, then maybe it will not be a problem. and of course it would be very interesting if you really accept payments with bitcoin. this will interest people who want to experience their first experience of making payments with bitcoin directly.
and how to receive payments by bitcoin is quite simple as explained by the others above.

It's simple as you can check in your wallets and you will find the qr code to receive the payment on your address.When you open your wallet for example Electrum and go on receive tab you will find the address which you can directly copy to send to someone and along with it you will also find the qr code which you can print on paper for receiving payments for your business.
Like you can find in the image below for your convenience:
Same is the case with other wallets as well they have qr code which you can print on paper.
