Hey everyone, hoping someone here can help with a tech solution. I’m trying to figure this out: I want to add a form or widget on my WordPress site where people can make cryptocurrency donations. Basically, I need it to let a user input their bank card info: like card number and CVV (supporting Visa, Mastercard, UnionPay, American Express, DinersClub, JCB), set an amount (say, $100), then pick a cryptocurrency from a list (like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, etc. which I'll predefine in the setup). After that, they should be able to enter their crypto wallet address (like a Bitcoin wallet), hit a button or two, and that’s it. The $100 would get pulled from their bank card, turned into Bitcoin, and sent straight to my Bitcoin wallet. Or is there not anything like this out there? Is it still the case that someone with just a bank card and minimal crypto knowledge has to jump through hoops to send me a donation? Like, they’d need to go register on a crypto exchange, buy $100 worth of Bitcoin, and then transfer it to my wallet? I really want to make it easy for folks who aren’t savvy with crypto to donate. Is there a service, script, or WordPress plugin that can make this happen?

I think there's a WordPress plugin that works just like that before I don't remember exactly; it might be cryptopayments or coinpayments, but they are using a 3rd party. Right now, they don't have this feature anymore, but you can create a donation box only to receive crypto. If you're looking for WordPress plugins that you can use to create your own donation box, we have a list of them; usually they call it Payment Processor, but you can use it as a donation box. Check this list: https://github.com/alexk111/awesome-bitcoin-payment-processors It appears that you also created a topic about this in the Wordpress forum, but there was no response, so you brought the topic here.

AFAIK such service or software isn't exist. But aside from what @BitMaxz said, there are few service which let sender send Bitcoin where you receive cryptocurrency you chose in advance (such as BitPay Send). Honestly i would recommend you to simply accept fiat donation and convert it manually.
