# Connecting your BTCPay store to your e-commerce platform

Depending on the CMS you're using, you can easily connect BTCPay to your online store. Currently, BTCPay offers the following integrations:

# Extending BTCPay Server: Plugins

BTCPay Server is more than just a payment processor. Core plugins such as Point of Sale, Crowdfunding, and Pay Button help many users get started quickly, and additional plugins can extend your instance for more specialized workflows.

# Point of Sale plugin

Use the Point of Sale plugin to accept payments from customers in person or collect donations through a simple checkout experience. View Point of Sale instructions here.

# Crowdfunding plugin

Use the Crowdfunding plugin to run a campaign where funds go directly to your wallet without relying on a traditional crowdfunding platform. View Crowdfunding instructions here.

# Pay Button plugin

Use the Pay Button plugin when you have a fixed amount for a product or donation and want an embeddable checkout button for your website. View Pay Button instructions here.

Need something custom? Open the Manage Plugins section on your BTCPay instance or browse the BTCPay Server Plugin Directory (opens new window).

If you run a public-facing business that accepts bitcoin, you can also submit it to the community-maintained BTCPay Server Merchant Directory (opens new window).
