How To Connect A BitGo Account To Zaprite

Zaprite offers the ability to connect a BitGo Wallet enabling users to accept bitcoin payments directly to their secure multisig custody.

The following guide outlines the instructions for creating an Access Token for your BitGo Wallet and connecting it to your Zaprite Checkouts. If you are not yet a BitGo customer, head over to bitgo.com to check out their product offerings.

We recommend always creating a new Wallet for Zaprite where possible. You should not use this wallet for any other external services as it will decrease your privacy and may affect financial reporting within Zaprite.
