I’m not sure why I’m even responding, since it seems like you’ve already made up your mind. But just to clarify... when I started with Bucksbus, I didn’t pay 35K upfront. I began with their standard rate of 0.3% on transaction volume. I only decided to purchase the transaction package after trying the service, as they told me I could switch whenever I felt ready.

If it gives peace of mind to people around here, I can share what isn’t perfect with bb. With absolute honesty, for on-ramp, the U.S. region is only supported by partners that require KYC for now. But I don’t need it for my business, and I truly love the service so far. Just because my account is new, does that mean I can’t express my thoughts?

Is it really that unbelievable to you?
Different businesses have different needs and transaction volumes. For me, locking in a better rate with a larger package made sense — it’s just math. I’m not here to convince anyone, just sharing my experience like others do. If it doesn’t work for you, that’s fair. But assuming what someone else did or didn’t pay without knowing the details doesn’t add much to the conversation.

Also, I don’t think it’s fair or productive to bash a service or business without even trying it. I rarely post in forums and only came here to ask for advice, not to stir up controversy, lol. Let’s keep it helpful. Thank you!

I understand the concern. Just to clarify, I actually created this account because I was looking for advice and wanted to join the conversation, not to promote anything. I’m not affiliated with bucksbus in any way. I’m simply a user who recently started testing out their service for my own store after comparing a bunch of options. So far, the experience has been smooth. Of course, I’m still early in, so I’m keeping a close eye.

It’s always smart to do your own due diligence. Just sharing my side in case it helps someone else who's exploring alternatives.

So far, so good, I can't say anything negative. I'd even say I'm impressed. But to be fair, I just started using it, so keep that in mind. As for payments, it really depends. To qualify for the 0.07% rate, you'd need to buy their package of 500,000 transactions, which costs $35,000. They offer different packages based on transaction volume. But even if you don’t have that many transactions, they have other payment models. If I’m not mistaken, you can choose to pay $0.30 per transaction if you usually receive big payments, or 0.3% from every transaction if your clients make smaller payments. I think it’s pretty cool how they tailor it to different business needs. I'm surprised they didn’t explain it in more detail.

Their egos didn't fit in the same room

I used to work for an online casino that used bucksbus. From what I remember, they were pretty happy with it. I didn’t use it personally though, so can’t vouch for it... But yeah, on-ramps seem to be a headache for a lot of companies.

I'm looking for a crypto payment solution for my own store as well. How do you like Bucksbus so far? I looked into them too, but they didn’t offer the 0.07% rate. How did you manage to get that deal? Thank you!

Thank you for the advice! Those are solid options, but I still need more coins, and Bucksbus, they can even add coins by request, so I’m sticking with their service for now.

Hi everyone, I run an online shop and want to accept crypto payments. I've tried working with some providers, but their on-ramp processes were slow and included lots of redirections. It led to lower conversions—users often dropped off at that step.
It's important for me to have a quick checkout process (also no KYC would be good). I did some new research and found Helio and BucksBus, but I couldn’t gather enough info about them. If you’ve had any experience with these or other crypto payment gateways, I’d really appreciate your insights. Thanks!
