Physical wallet/ledger for storing bitcoin received from customers.

I think your intention is really good.

But if that's the case, I wouldn't bring my hardware wallet outside as it's typically ok to just use the mobile wallet that I have and it loaded there.

And about advertising, you can have your own share on doing this but it's no longer needed honestly for bitcoin. It's already known and unlike before, everybody seems to know about bitcoin.

If customers already have coinbase or any third party wallet they can scan it to pay. It would be easier to scan and pay from what they already have on their phone.

If they already have cash, it would be easier to pay with cash. Or if they have a credit card, it's easier to pay with their credit card. You seem to miss the point of your own topic: if you want customers to pay with Bitcoin, use your own Bitcoin wallet.

It seems you're actually don't know what you're talking about?

Correct. OP shouldn't be advising people what to do.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope

To measure and encourage customer enthusiasm, I will only implement bitcoin payments on certain days (you can also offer a discount). As in large stores, discount offers can invite long queues and increase the number of product sales.

It will also save some "quick education" time if bitcoin is really new to many customers.

Make it easy for customers to pay with Bitcoin by accepting it through a digital wallet such as Coinbase or BitPay. You can also use a physical wallet if you prefer, but make sure it supports Bitcoin payments.

It seems you're actually don't know what you're talking about? is there any hardware wallet that doesn't support Bitcoin? nope, every hardware wallet always accept Bitcoin, it's only limited for shitcoins.

As long as your customers pay with Bitcoin, not a fake Bitcoin e.g. BCH, BSV, WBTC etc, using on chain network, not a centralized network e.g. BSC, no matter address their use (legacy, segwit, native segwit) they can send it to your wallet. Don't confuse if they need to use Coinbase or BitPay.

Anyway why on earth you classify Coinbase and BitPay is a wallet, they're an exchange and require KYC!

Don't ask your customers to use third parties that can ask for kyc. Be your own bank.
Also: what are you talking about with physical wallets?

Agree with the discounts. It's what attracted me to try spending in Bitcoin (a small discount or cashback or similar in return for the additional inconvenience). It's also what attracted my very first Bitcoin paying clients -- often, especially on larger invoices, 5% off can be quite a savings, especially over long-term contracts.

Yep. Terrible idea. And that KYC can get both parties in trouble with frozen accounts. As a consumer/customer I truly appreciate when a website doesn't force me to use Bitpay, for example. It makes my life much harder, forces me to overpay fees and estimate a high amount, forces me to disable RBF (among many other inconveniences!).
