Accept Dogecoin (DOGE) payments without KYC
The people's coin of low-end hosting
Dogecoin is the meme that refused to die and became a payment rail: one-minute blocks, fees at fractions of a cent, and a buyer base that has paid for game servers, seedboxes and low-end VPS in DOGE for a decade. For budget hosting it converts remarkably well.
The mechanics mirror Bitcoin and Litecoin: on the direct plan buyers pay straight to your own D-address, simultaneous invoices are told apart by unique amounts, and detection watches UTXO outputs through a BlockCypher indexer with an optional API token. Twenty blocks — roughly twenty minutes — is the confirmation budget.

Addressing modes
Direct (non-custodial)
Payments go straight to your wallet: One static Dogecoin address (D…) from any wallet — every invoice pays to it with a unique amount window. Same UTXO matching as BTC/LTC.

Dogecoin (DOGE) payment FAQ
How fast does a DOGE payment confirm?
After 20 network confirmations — about 20 minutes on Dogecoin's one-minute blocks. payment.detected fires as soon as the transaction is visible.
Is DOGE volatile?
Yes — DOGE invoices re-quote every few minutes until the payment is first seen on-chain, then freeze. The buyer always sees the exact amount to send.
DOGE vs LTC for small hosting invoices?
Both are cents-level UTXO coins. DOGE blocks are faster (1 min vs 2.5) but the confirmation budget keeps wall-clock time similar (~20 min); LTC leans quieter in price, DOGE carries the meme audience. payment_currency=any lets buyers pick.
Which wallets work for the direct plan?
Any wallet that shows a Dogecoin address: the official Dogecoin Core, MultiDoge, Exodus, Ledger, Trezor or an exchange deposit address reserved for ZeroKYC Pay. The platform stores the address only.
