Hey guys, I&#x27;m aware of the unfortunate name of the product. Munt actually means coin in Dutch. So my apologies to people I have insulted.<p>I will change the name as soon as possible, if you have any feedback on how to name it next, that would be appreciated.

I&#x27;m dutch with a pretty good grasp of english and never knew &quot;munt&quot; was slang or offensive. You learn every day.

That... is an unfortunate name. I would really encourage people to google a word before choosing it as a product name.

So .. how does this actually work? Is it a direct wallet transfer or is it an intermediary? How does it handle unconfirmed transactions? Which cryptocurrencies is it valid for? Does it do refunds? Are there KYC&#x2F;AML requirements?

Ignoring the name (which everyone else has commented on), this looks nice. I like the colour scheme too; it reminds me of custard. The simplicity of the dashboard is pretty refreshing and it looks well documented for a new product.

Congratulations on the launch!<p>Suggestion: Add credit-card processing. As a developer, I would benefit from being able to implement a <i>single</i> payment integration that let my customers pay how they want to. Credit cards are the obvious biggie, but it would also be huge to be able to e.g. receive European bank transfers as a US-based business. My dream &quot;OmniPay&quot; would also handle PayPal, Venmo, etc. as well, all with one integration.<p>Much as I&#x27;d like to try accepting cryptocurrencies, I&#x27;m definitely not going to manage multiple payment processors to add support for what (I would suppose) would be a tiny fraction of my business.

Olodolo.com currently uses coinpayments.net for this. What benefits do you offer over their implementation? I have actually been looking for a nicer system to switch over to.

Terrible choice of name... it’s a common, and not very pleasant, slang term<p>Munted: uncontrollably drunk<p>Munter: extremely unattractive female<p>In the UK at least, possibly other English-speaking countries.

Great idea! Some design feedback.<p>The contrast on the signup page is too low - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;getmunt.com&#x2F;signup" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;getmunt.com&#x2F;signup</a> - I can&#x27;t tell what each field is supposed to be.<p>The white on yellow at the bottom of the sign up, and also on your chat pop-up is also quite low.

Great - it is good to see competition to GoURL. The Woocommerce integration in particular is great to see. GoURL&#x27;s woocommerce plugin is functional but the experience is not the greatest.<p>Good luck with it - I will potentially switch one of my products over to this on a trial basis.
