Paying with Bitcoin (BTC)

Traffic Creator accepts Bitcoin (BTC) as a payment method, providing you with a secure, pseudonymous, and borderless way to purchase traffic credits. This guide will walk you through the process of making payments with Bitcoin, from preparing your wallet to completing your transaction.

Important: Bitcoin payments are currently available for one-time purchases only and cannot be used for subscription plans. To pay with Bitcoin, you'll need to uncheck the "Subscribe" option during checkout.

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that operates without a central authority or intermediary. Launched in 2009, it enables peer-to-peer transactions on a global scale with relatively low fees. Bitcoin transactions are verified through a process called mining and recorded on a public ledger known as the blockchain.

Confirmations & Troubleshooting

Understanding Confirmations

Bitcoin transactions need confirmations on the blockchain:

Pending (0 confirmations)

Transaction broadcasted but not yet in a block. Payment detected but not processed.

Confirmed (1+ confirmations)

Transaction included in a block. We typically require 1-3 confirmations.

Confirmation time varies (minutes to hours) based on network fees and congestion.

Troubleshooting Bitcoin Payments

After 30 mins, verify amount/address, check a blockchain explorer (e.g., Blockstream), ensure adequate fee. Contact support with username, TXID, and wallet screenshot.

DO NOT send to the expired address. Start the purchase again for a new address/rate. If you already sent, contact support immediately.

Sent less: May not process automatically. Contact support; you might need to send the difference. Sent more: Processed for ordered amount. Contact support about the excess for credit or refund.

Fees & Security

Transaction Fees & Exchange Rates

Be aware of:

  • Exchange Rate: BTC amount uses a real-time rate, locked for the timer duration.
  • Bitcoin Network Fees: You pay network fees (to miners), separate from the purchase amount.
  • Processing Fee: A small crypto processing fee might apply (shown at checkout).
Network fees fluctuate. Paying during off-peak times (weekends, late night UTC) might save on fees.

Bitcoin Payment Security

To stay secure:

  • Use the official website (https://trafficcreator.org).
  • Verify the address on the payment page; we never ask for BTC via email/chat.
  • Use 2FA on your Traffic Creator account and wallet.
  • Consider a hardware wallet for large amounts.

Getting Help

If you encounter issues or have questions:

  • Contact support via Help → Submit a Ticket.
  • Include username, TXID, screenshots, and a description of the issue.
  • Expect a response typically within 24 hours for payment issues.
