Glad to hear there are other people that need a platform like this.
I setup a very basic thread for the project and will be adding more info to it in the following days.

Here's the link you requested.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cryptocurrencycheckout-payment-gateway-accept-crypto-on-your-website-free-5054939

Hope your good, adding crypto payment options to a websites is something i'm deff interested in knowing more about at some point in the future and i'm sure ill be speaking on behalf of others. Please post a link to your main thread once up and running just to keep track if not to much trouble..

thanks again, best wishes with everything

Alternatively, when you are ready to announce your project you can do so in the Service Announcement or Service Discussion section of the forum as well.

Whenever you are doubtful of where your thread belongs, you can head over to this thread : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/unofficial-list-of-official-bitcointalkorg-rules-guidelines-faq-703657 , which is stickied in Meta; then scroll down to "Guidelines for Threads" and read about what each section is intended for. This way you won't have to worry about where your threads belong, you can simply read the guidelines for each of them from here onward.

Hi, noob question.
I am a developer that comes from E-commerce/online store side of things.
And I got into a crypto a few years back, have done some coding and worked with a few small altcoin projects as a freelancer.

So anyways I started looking for a way to easily accept cryptocurrencies on my store platforms and quickly found that almost all the options available were either extremely difficult to code into a store, offered no guides or support, and or they charged pretty large transaction fee's on every transaction. Sometimes equaling or being more expensive then traditional credit card transaction fee's for businesses.

Thinking it was madness to be paying such high transaction fees, and/or monthly fees for something that just simply does some currency calculations, and gives you the required addresses and QR codes to pay through the blockchain,
being a developer I decided to code something for my own stores. And while in the process I got a lot of request to do something similar for other e-commerce businesses.

And I decided to modify my code to allow anybody in the same situation as me to use it.
Something where you can just copy and paste a small piece of pre-generated code on your website, and in seconds be accepting multiple cryptocurrencies without per transaction fees, or monthly fees.

My crypto friends said I should post the project on here as they think a lot of people would be interested.

So my question is.
Which forum would I post this kind of project in?
I was thinking maybe the altcoin announcement page.
But the project isn't really a "coin", it just allows you to accept crypto in your store.
It teaches the store how to communicate with wallets is all.

Is there a designated board on here for stuff like this?

Thanks for the help.

Yep, as lakai says, you should post your project under:

Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Project Development
 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=12.0

You should take a look to shapeshift API, that's a nice service who allow you to accept not only bitcoin, it allows a lot of altcoins, but it has the same problem you mentioned before, those damn high fees, at least is hard to avoid them.

Hi and welcome to the forum!

There is a dedicated subforum for project developments: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=12.0
I think you should announce and discuss your project there.
