The domain registrar and web host Namecheap has announced that it will now allow users to pay for its products and services using Bitcoin through the open source and self-hosted cryptocurrency payment processor BTCPay.
With BTCPay, the company’s customers can now add any amount of money up to $100,000 to their Namecheap account balance to use for payments and this will work with any Bitcoin wallet. It’s also worth noting that BTCPay doesn’t offer refunds so once you add Bitcoin to your Namecheap account using the service, you’ll be unable to withdraw it.
Namecheap has a long history of supporting Bitcoin and it actually became the first major domain registrar to accept the cryptocurrency for payments all the way back in 2013.
The company will also continue to accept payments through BitPay in addition to BTCPay.
