Enter “Coinsnap Bitcoin Donation” in the search bar.

Bitcoin Voting Coinsnap Settings

After you have installed and activated the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin, you need to configure the Coinsnap settings. Go to Bitcoin Voting [1] -> Settings [2] in the black sidebar on the left.

Now choose your payment gateway Coinsnap [1]. (You can also choose BTCPay server if you are using one, and then fill in the respective information.)

Then you’ll have to enter your Coinsnap Store ID and your Coinsnap API Key. [2] (See below to learn how to retrieve these from your Coinsnap account.)

As soon as you’ve pasted the Store ID and the API Key into their fields, click on check. If you see a green message next to it saying Connection successful, your plugin is ready to accept Bitcoin votes and credit them to your Lightning wallet.

Don’t forget to klick on Save changes before you start configuring your Bitcoin polls!

Get your Coinsnap Store ID and API Key

In the Coinsnap backend, go to the Settings menu item, then click on Store in the blue field. There you will find the Coinsnap Store ID [1] and the Coinsnap API Key [2]. Copy these one after the other into the corresponding fields in the plugin settings (see above). Then click on the Save Changes button at the bottom of the page to apply and save the settings [3].

Once you have entered and saved the Coinsnap data in the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting settings, you are set to collect Bitcoin from your voters’ wallets directly into your wallet. Now just one last step remains and you can publish your first Bitcoin polls!

After you have installed and activated the Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting plugin, you need to configure the Coinsnap settings. Go to Bitcoin Voting -> Settings [1] in the black sidebar on the left.

Now choose your payment gateway BTCPay [1] and click save.

Now, log into your BTCPay Server. If you’ve done that, enter your BTCPay Server URL into the matching field in the Donation Settings tab [1].

Next, you’ll have to click on the Generate API Key button [2].

You’ll then be forwarded to your BTCPay Server.

Create a Bitcoin poll box for your WordPress website

How to set up a poll

Go to Bitcoin Voting -> Polls in the left sidebar. On the top left of the screen click on the button Add New Poll.

You will see the poll configuration window now. First, you need to name your poll. This is also the headline that your voters get to see in the voting box [1]. Then, of course, activate the poll by checking enable [2].

You can also limit voters to vote just once. [3]

If you like, give your voters a description so they know what they are voting for, what you intend to do with the poll, etc. – whatever comes to your mind. [4]

Then you have four options. These are the statements or choices your voters can make or choose. Fill in the possible choices as needed for your poll. [5]

Now you need to define the cost for voting. The minimum amount that is technically possible is 13 sats (or 1 €-Cent). If you are using the Bitcoin payment just to prevent bots from voting, 13 sats is a good choice. If you want to make a small income with your poll, feel free to enter any other amount in satoshis. [6]

In the next two field you set the running time of your poll. [7]

Then, you can set a thank you message that your voters see after successfully paying and voting [8].

Next to [9] you see the shortcode that you need to place on your website wherever you want to present the poll. Just copy the shortcode and paste it to the appropriate place.

And last, but not least, you can choose to collect certain information from your donors by checking the box in the Collect donor information line [10].

Collecting information from your voters

If you want to gather some intelligence on your voters, and have clicked the checkbox to do so, you will see this menu.

Now just choose which information you want to gather, and if you want it to be a mandatory information or leave it as an option for your donor to decide.

In this example the first name of the donor is a mandatory information. We do not try to collect their last name (Hidden), leave it to them to leave their Email and a message (Custom Field Name, to be filled by you). Accordingly, these fields are labelled optional.

Placing the Bitcoin poll box on your website

Now you are ready to display the Bitcoin donation box on your website. Simply copy the shortcode (here [coinsnap_bitcoin_voting id=”12″]) and paste it at any place you choose.

Test your Bitcoin poll

After all settings have been made, a test transaction should be carried out.

First, cast a vote in a Coinsnap Bitcoin Voting poll box that you placed on your website (just click on your choice).

Then provide the required information.

Now, the payment interface will appear with the QR code.

Scan it with your private Bitcoin-Lightning wallet and authorize the payment.

The 21 sats will be immediately credited to your business Bitcoin-Lightning wallet!

After successful payment, within a few seconds you will see the poll box again, now showing you the results of the voting so far:

The SEPA area comprises the 27 EU member states, the EEA states, Switzerland and the UK.

Deposit of your own bank account

Once you have registered with Coinsnap and entered your Lightning address, you can choose to pay out by bank transfer via the Payout menu item.

If you then select the provider DFX, you will be asked to enter your bank details.
This includes the exact name of the account holder and the IBAN number.

You must also specify the currency in which the payout is to be made. You can choose between Euro and CHF.

If you have not yet entered your personal and company details, you can do so here.

Payout to your own bank account

If a customer pays with Bitcoin or Lightning in your online store, the purchase amount is forwarded to DFX.

DFX converts the sats into euros or CHF at the current exchange rate and transfers the equivalent value to your bank account at midnight, where it is usually credited the next day.

Each payment is changed and paid out individually. This means that you have a separate entry on your bank statement for each of your customers’ purchases.

The minimum amount is € 10. If the amount is smaller, it is paid out to the Lightning Wallet.

The payout can be made in either euros or CHF. Your own bank account will be credited in the corresponding currency of this account. A merchant with a bank account in the UK can make the payout in euros, the credit is then made in pounds to his English bank account.

Prerequisite

To be able to make a payout to their own bank account, the merchant must provide the company details. In addition, the name of the account holder and the IBAN of the corresponding account.

No further information is required as long as the turnover is less than CHF 1,000 / € 950 per day or CHF 100,000 / € 95,000 per year. If the turnover exceeds this limit, an additional identification check is required under Swiss law.

Fees

The fee for exchanging Lightning into Euros or Swiss Francs is 1.49% on the turnover.

If the turnover of CHF 1,000 / € 950 per day or CHF 100,000 / € 95,000 per year is exceeded and an additional identification check is therefore required, the fee is 1.99 % of the turnover.
