Getting Started

This section goes through the process of creating an account and store on our public testnet BTCPay server.

You can take a look at our video:

Create your first invoice

First let's create a new store:

1. Go on Testnet website
2. Create an account
3. Create a new store

Let's create a testnet wallet for your store:

1. Download Electrum
2. Run Electrum with parameter --testnet
3. Go to Wallet menu then Master Public Key, copy the whole string starting by tpub...

Let's configure the store so it uses your electrum wallet:

1. Go to the setting page of your store in BTCPay
2. In the Information Menu, paste the ExtPubKey with the string you just copied from Electrum, validate.

Then you can create an invoice, either by the process documented on the Migration From Bitpay page. Or through the website on the Invoice menu.
