The order confirmation is also sent to your e-mail address. The unique cryptocurrency address to which you have to send your cryptocurrency payment within 20 minutes is listed on the order confirmation page and in the order confirmation e-mail.
Step 7: You will be updated with a payment received order status e-mail and an SMS text message automatically as soon as we have received the required number of confirmations for your cryptocurrency payment. We will thereafter process your order.
