BitBucks for sellers
What does a payment with BitBucks cost me as a merchant?
Top-ups and pay-outs are free of charge for merchants who use the BitBucks app. Payments within the wallet are charged a transaction fee of one percent. In comparison, payments by credit card in Germany usually cost merchants between two and four percent (excluding fees for card terminal providers) and are therefore much more expensive.
What do I need to accept BitBucks in my store?
All you need is the BitBucks app on your smartphone and a QR code attached to it next to the cashier. During the payment process the customer scans this QR code with his Bitcoin wallet, enters the required amount and within a second the payment is received on your mobile phone.
How can I convert my earned Bitcoins to another currency?
Herefore the credit from the BitBucks app has to be transferred to another Bitcoin Wallet, with which the bitcoin amount can be converted into your desired currency at a so-called exchange market.
Doesn't Bitcoins' price rises also mean higher tax expenses for me?
Not at all! If you would like to exchange Bitcoin for i.e. Euro, you only pay taxes on the profit achieved by the price increase. And to be honest, paying taxes on profits doesn't sound that bad, does it?
Is there a list of all transactions within the BitBucks app?
For all bookings within the BitBucks App an overview can be created monthly as PDF to ensure a smoothly tax accounting.
Isn't the Bitcoin price too volatile and therefore a risk for me as a merchant?
If you sell your Bitcoin on the same day at the end-of-day price, the volatility of the Bitcoin price hardly plays a role for you as a merchant. In addition, due to the pending halving and the deflationary character of Bitcoin, the price is expected to stabilize over time anyway.
Can bitcoins be seized?
If you store your private key securely, no one can confiscate your bitcoins. Only the one who has the key can access bitcoins. It is protected by strong cryptography.
I have to pay taxes on Bitcoin, but do I have to convert the earned coins into Euro immediately?
The Bitcoin received can either be sold by merchants in a timely manner at the end-of-day rate or added to their own fixed assets. In the case of a later sale on the stock exchange, only the profit made is taxable for traders - any losses can be written off normally. *German Law only
Is Bitcoin legal?
In almost all countries, the use of Bitcoin to send and receive money is permitted. In a few countries this is restricted or completely forbidden. Please seek reliable information as to the legal situation regarding Bitcoin in your country.
What additional factors must be taken into consideration for tax accounting?
Merchants must document the corresponding exchange rate for all Bitcoin payments - the end-of-day exchange rate is also sufficient. The Bitcoin Wallet from BitBucks provides all relevant information with an integrated transaction export in the app, thus simplifying the work for the merchant.
What is Bitcoin legally? Can I even accept it as a means of payment?
Yes, in Germany, crypto assets such as Bitcoin belong to the German Banking Act and are therefore considered a financial instrument. As a merchant, you can therefore accept Bitcoin without hesitation.
What is the german government's position on Bitcoin? Is there a danger of stricter rules?
Stricter regulations in Germany would be equivalent to a ban, which seems more than unrealistic in the current development.
What will change for me as a merchant if I offer Bitcoin as a means of payment? Suddenly I get paid in Bitcoin and not my local currency as usual.
Euros (or any other currency) are still booked in the balance sheet. In the normal course of business nothing changes.
What about the tax settlement of Bitcoin as a merchant? What about the value added tax?
VAT is still charged on the products sold as normal. When selling Bitcoin, an additional deduction of VAT is also no longer necessary.
