I'm trying to integrate bitcoin sales into my business, but find the biggest obstacle is getting the customer to understand how bitcoin works and then somehow finding ways for them to acquire bitcoins in a timely manner. Generating 1000's of addresses for each unique transaction is laughably easy compared to other issues related to accepting btc! Coinbase seems to be the most viable option for me....unless i want to BUY coins lol i think the vendor that can offer a working pre-loaded btc debit card to purchase real items from my store front will make a fortune!

Ur doing it wrong:  you only want one address per transaction.

Why not take two sides of those transactions with your customers, instead of just the usual, single "buy my stuff" side?  Why not offer to sell them bitcoin too?  If they're curious about bitcoin, but they find that acquiring coin is difficult, sell them some coin.  Offer them the best spread available, since you make your real profit off whatever you sell in your store.  There... now wasn't that easy?

Isn't that your job:  to make things easy for your customers and see to it that they get what they want?
