If you are interested in a bitcoin payment processing gateway and crypto wallet for business then I personally recommend you to pay your attention to https://coinspaid.com/. These are professionals who have been in the market for quite some time and they know exactly both the principles of cryptocurrencies and the basic requirements for payment gateways! I recommend them!
