Your first invoice
This document describes the whole process you should do after Deploying to get your first invoice in your store!
Registering on an instance
The first step in setting up your BitcartCC instance is creating a user account. The first created account on a newly-deployed BitcartCC instance is automatically - admin.
Server admins have the same access to features as the regular users, but they are also provided with some server management tools like server upgrade or server policies management.
To register, visit your BitcartCC URL and fill in the account registration form. Input your password, password confirmation, e-mail and click "Register". You will automatically be logged in.

Creating a wallet
Inside BitcartCC, you can setup and manage an unlimited number of wallets. Each wallet has its own xpub (BTC-based blockchains) or a single wallet address (ETH-based blockchains), and currency. One wallet holds one currency.
BitcartCC is a non-custodial software, which means that all the funds received to your store, will end up directly into your connected wallet.
You need to have your blockchain wallets created beforehand to specify their details in BitcartCC! (more on this below)
Creating a wallet for Bitcoin-based blockchains (BTC)
Note: A private key (xprv) is never required for receiving money on-chain to a BitcartCC wallet. The software needs a public key (xpubkey) which is a watch-only wallet token. The xpubkey allows BitcartCC to generate a new address each time a new invoice is generated. It enables users to observe the wallet balance and transactions without having to share their private key.
To manage the funds received to your BitcartCC wallet, you can use an external wallet.
We recommend that you use the wallet which:
1.Allows connection to a full node
2.Allows custom gap limit
The most recommended wallet for use with BitcartCC is the Electrum wallet, as BitcartCC uses electrum internally, which makes it perfectly integrated.
Creating a wallet for ETH-based blockchains (ETH, BSC)
You can use any ETH-compatible wallets (e.g. MetaMask, or Mycellium) to create your ETH or BSC wallets. Copy-paste your wallet address from wallet software to BitcartCC into "Wallet / Xpub" input.
Creating a wallet in BitcartCC UI
To setup wallets, make sure you're logged in into your account, and go to > Wallets by clicking Details button on the card. Click on the create wallet button and fill in the wallet name, currency(optional, default btc) and xpub (or wallet address for ETH-based blockchains).
Create a store
Inside BitcartCC, you can create and manage an unlimited number of stores. Each store has its own wallet or wallets (it allows multicurrency checkout), can create products, invoices or be connected with external e-commerce software through one of the integrations.
To create a store, make sure you're logged in into your account, and go to > Stores page by clicking on Details in it's card. Click on the New Store button. Enter the store name, and select this store's wallets.
