Bitcoin Payments

Candid-HD.com now accepts Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency!

What is Bitcoin (Litecoin, Ethereum, Cryptocurrency)? Bitcoin is a digital currency. Bitcoins can be used to transfer value over the Internet in a matter of seconds just like you would send an email. The value of Bitcoin and its transactions are stored in the blockchain. Everyone can run the open source Bitcoin software on his PC, laptop or smartphone to store, receive or send Bitcoins.

Bitcoin is not controlled by any bank, government or company, it is a decentralized peer-to-peer network and is managed by millions of computer worldwide running the Bitcoin software. Bitcoins possess value because only a limited number of Bitcoins exist and people value the decentralized, anonymous and virtual characteristics.

Bitcoin is often called a virtual currency, which is a somewhat misleading as most currencies we use today are mainly stored virtually as 1 and 0 in a bank computer. The main difference is fiat currencies are backed by governments and digital currencies are backed by mathematics and computer power.

A short (1:36min) video introduction to Bitcoin from WeUseCoins:

Why use Bitcoin?

• It's fast and convenient. Just like sending an email, in a matter of seconds, you can send your Bitcoin to the other end of the world. When you go through our checkout, you don't have to enter all your sensitive credit card information - once you submit the order, you're taken to a page with a link URL and QR code for your Bitcoin payment. If you have a Bitcoin wallet installed on your mobile phone, it's as quick and easy as scanning the QR code with your phone and paying instantly from your Bitcoin wallet.
• It's international. It doesn't matter if you send your money to the US, Germany, Japan or Zimbabwe. The price is the same, the speed is the same, the only thing you need is a computer (or mobile) with an Internet connection.
• No price fluctuation. The price of Bitcoin may fluctuate often, however this does not affect the price that you pay on our site. As soon as you submit your order, the cost of that order in USD is immediately converted into Bitcoin (or another crypto currency that we accept), and you can then pay in the converted Bitcoin amount. As the price of Bitcon may rise or fall, the cost to you for items on our site will not fluctuate.
• It's private. A Bitcoin transaction is not linked to a person or place. Your sensitive CC information is never shared with a 3rd party, and your purchase does not appear on your card statement. Your identity and payment information stays private.
• It's safe. A Bitcoin transaction is validated by thousands of computers worldwide and can't be intercepted or canceled. If you backup and store your Bitcoins in a safe place, no one can access them.
• It's easy to use. Just create a Bitcoin wallet online or install a wallet on your computer or phone, buy some Bitcoins and you're ready to go.
• No middleman. There is no bank involved that can block or reverse your transaction (so no extra charges).
• It's deflationary by nature. Bitcoin is likely to increase in value over the long term because it is a deflationary currency as opposed to the inflationary euro, dollar and other fiat currencies. This is because governments and banks create a lot of new euros and dollars every year, but after a while, no new Bitcoins will be created.
• It's decentralized. Just like Internet or torrent networks, so it is hard to suppress by any government or organization.

Bitcoin checkout process

• Checkout: When you are finished shopping, begin the checkout process normally. Either sign in to your account, or create a new account.
• Payment: At the payment options section, choose Bitcoin/cryptocurrency payment.
• Confirm: Confirm your order is correct, then click submit.
• Pay via Bitcoin/cryptocurrency: You'll either be taken directly to a page with the amount due (converted to the currency you choose - Bitcoin/Bitcoin Cash/Ethereum/Litecoin/Other Cryptocurrency), our account number, and a QR code, or e-mailed a page with this information in a short time. If you have a Bitcoin/cryptocurrency wallet on your phone, you can scan the QR code with your phone and pay easily and quickly. The USD amount of your order is automatically converted to your chosen cryptocurrency, and you have to complete payment within 2 hours. Paying immediately is best, to ensure avoiding any exchange rate fluctuations. As soon as your payment is confirmed, by receiving at least 6 confirmations on the blockchain (usually this takes less than 15 minutes), you'll be notified via e-mail and your payment will be complete. For a good multi-currency wallet that supports Litecoin, and allows you to exchange currencies, we recommend Cryptonator.
• Follow confirmation progress: You can follow the progress of your transaction on the blockchain here. Enter your wallet ID or the transaction number in the top right search box:
  Litecoin blockchain transactions
  Bitcoin blockchain transactions
  Ethereum blockchain transactions

How to use Bitcoins?

The safest way for long-term Bitcoin storage is in a physical paper wallet - however you lose a good deal of convenience this way. For making frequent or daily transactions, it's most convenient to keep some of your Bitcoin value in a virtual wallet that can be either stored on your hard drive, or accessed online. The wallet can be a piece of software or an account with one of the wallet providers. Both have advantages and disadvantages.
