How well Bitcoin fits online schools

Good fit · Fit 60%

A good option next to your main coin.

Pros

One of the coins buyers know best, which means fewer abandoned payments.
Good for large amounts: deep liquidity and counterparties trust it.

Keep in mind

The coin’s price moves: set the price in USD and the amount is converted at the rate fixed when the invoice is created.

Network: Bitcoin
Coin: BTC
Addresses: a separate one for each payment
Rate: locked for the payment window

Students from any country

Crypto doesn’t depend on the payer’s bank or country.

Installments via invoices

Issue several invoices for parts of a course from the dashboard.

Invoice in fiat

A USD price is converted to BTC at the rate locked when the invoice is created.

The fastest way to start is manual invoices: a manager creates an invoice in the dashboard or the Telegram bot and sends the student a link. As volume grows, connect the API to your platform.

Bitcoin transfers take longer to confirm than stablecoins, so for digital goods it helps to show the customer the payment status in real time. The Moonvex payment page updates on its own — the customer doesn’t need to reload it.

Recommended coin set for online schools

To cover most customers, enable on the checkout page: USDT TRC-20, USDT ERC-20, USDT BEP-20. The customer picks the network, and every payment lands on one project balance.

One request to create a payment

The response contains the address, the exact amount and a link to a ready-made payment page. Status updates arrive via HMAC-signed webhooks.

curl https://api.moonvex.org/v1/payments \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MOONVEX_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"orderId":"course-python-start-77","amount":"199","currency":"USD","asset":"BTC","network":"BITCOIN"}'

FAQ

Which currency should the price be in when customers pay in Bitcoin?

Set the price in USD with Bitcoin as the payment coin: Moonvex converts the amount and fixes the rate when the invoice is created.

Can I connect it to GetCourse or another platform?

Yes, if the platform can call an external API and receive webhooks. Otherwise, use manual invoices.

Do you accept Lightning?

For now, only the Bitcoin main network.

How will the student know the payment went through?

The payment page shows the status right after confirmation, and your system receives a webhook.

Can I send a BTC invoice without a website?

Yes, from the dashboard or the Telegram bot — the customer gets a link to the payment page.
