But before we proceed to the tutorial, let’s first have a short overview of Shopping.io and CoinPayments.
Overview
Shopping.io
Shopping.io was established last December 2020 founded by drop shipping veterans. The platform allows users to buy online using cryptocurrency. SPI is their native token to unlock plan discounts and benefits, but it is not required to have SPI tokens to make purchases. According to Shopping.io, their company’s mission and vision are to establish the mainstream adoption of crypto e-commerce while engaging retail on a mass scale.
CoinPayments
CoinPayments is a global crypto payment gateway with nearly 3 million users and merchants across more than 200 countries. In SparkPoint’s integration with Shopping.io, buyers shall choose CoinPayments as the payment gateway to use the SRK token as payment.
