NATS4 Bit-Pay
Billers Admin
To add Bit-Pay to NATS4, select "Bit-Pay" from the dropdown menu list of billers next to "Setup New Biller" in the Billers Admin. Once selected, click "Add" on the right side of the page to finish adding Bit-Pay.
Note: If you don't see Bit-Pay, put in a support ticket, as you may need an updated version of NATS.
Once you have added the Biller you will be able to edit biller-specific account information by clicking the pencil icon next to Bit-Pay labeled, "Edit Bit-Pay Account Info". Details on how to create an ssl key and certificate can be found in the next section.
- SSL-KEY - The full path of the SSL key created on your server.
- Certificate (Optional) - The full path of the SSL Certificate created on your server.
Setting Up at Bit-Pay
As detailed in Bit-Pay's documentation you must download openssl (http://openssl.org) in order to set up your API Access for Bit-Pay. This is required for NATS to communicate with Bit-Pay for transaction information.
Once Openssl is installed the following command can be used to generate an ssl key:
openssl genrsa -out ssl-key.pem 1024
Although it is optional, for extra security Bit-Pay recommends also creating an ssl certificate. This can be done with the following command:
openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha1 -days 3650 -key ssl-key.pem > ssl-cert.pem
Finally, once your key has been created, you can get your SHA-1 Fingerprint which is needed for configuration for your Bit-Pay account:
openssl x509 -in ssl-cert.pem -fingerprint -noout
Sites Admin
Bit-Pay requires no site-specific information to be modifed in your tour configuration. Instead, join options with Bit-Pay must be configured as a special join option by clicking "Set Special Payment Options" next to the site for which you would like to set up a Bit-Pay join option in the Sites Admin.
BITPAY Amount: The transaction amount of the join option.
BITPAY Currency: This is the currency that will be used to calculate the transaction amount in bitcoins based on what is set for Amount.
BITPAY Transaction Speed: (optional) - This is the speed at which the transaction will be processed. It is recommended that this be set to "high" for postbacks to occur instantly as other settings may take much longer for NATS to receive the postback from Bit-Pay.
Note: Bit-Pay does not postback information regarding the member's expire date so the following fields are required:
BITPAY Active Number: This is the number of days, hours or minutes you would like to set to be the duration of the subscription.
BITPAY Active Period: This is the unit of time for which you would like the Active Number to be active.
For example, a special join option with Active Number: 1 and Active Period: DAY will be a join option that expires after 1 day.
