This is the only plugin that will allow you to receive crypto directly to Binance with auto conversion support. Excellent plugin

After trying a couple of other options I decided to give BlockBee (recent CryptoApi) a try. I had a small installation issue but the support was really fast, got the solution to my problem in a matter of minutes. So 5 starts for the support definitely. 🙂 After I finished the setup, it works smoothly with my Woocommerce plugin. Plus it has many more currencies to choose from compared to many others. (If you would add Polygon options too, then I would be super happy 🙂 ) Thank you for awesome plugin
