How to Take a Crypto Deposit
How to collect a crypto deposit for a service or product: create an invoice, lock the amount, and get paid before work starts.
Taking a crypto deposit works the same way as any other deposit: agree on an amount, send an invoice, the client pays before you start. The difference is that the money arrives in minutes, with no bank in the middle.
What it looks like in practice
You create an invoice for the deposit amount: coin, network, amount. The service generates a payment page with an address. You send the link to the client by chat, email, or on your site. They pay. Once the network confirms, the money is on your balance. You start work knowing the payment has arrived.
Why crypto deposits hold up well
No chargebacks. A crypto transfer cannot be reversed through a bank, so the funds stay with you.
Pays from anywhere there is a wallet.
Funds on your balance in minutes, not after a settlement period.
Things to think through first
The invoice stays open for a limited time (30-60 minutes by default, adjustable). If the client does not pay in time, you issue a new one.
If you quote in fiat but accept crypto, fix the conversion rate before sending the invoice and tell the client what rate you used. That avoids disputes later.
