FCS Proposal - Firo integration with SHKeeper Self hosted payment processor

Reuben Yap, [10/26/2025 5:40 PM]
Has anyone heard of GitHub - vsys-host/shkeeper.io: SHKeeper is a self-hosted and open-source cryptocurrency gateway payment processor. It's integrate with popular CMS, any e-commerce, your own code or product SHKeeper?

interesting find, I hadn’t come across SHKeeper before, but it looks like a pretty solid!

To evaluate it properly, here are a few key things worth checking with their team:

  1. Does SHKeeper already support FIRO natively or would integration be needed?
  2. Do they offer merchant plugins (WooCommerce, Magento, Shopify via API, etc.)?
  3. How are keys and sensitive wallet data handled? We need to ensure privacy isn’t compromised
  4. Is a full node required and what are the resource requirements?
    Ideally they support pruned/light options for merchant setups.
  5. Has the code been audited or externally reviewed for security?
  6. Is the setup merchant-friendly? Easy onboarding = real adoption, not just a technical PoC.

If these points check out, SHKeeper could potentially be a good first step for FIRO

  1. Integration required but they only charge 2k USD

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:05 PM]
And they confirm spark support

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:05 PM]
Yes have merchant plugins

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:06 PM]
These are self hosted so not sure about the privacy

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:06 PM]
To me this is the “self hosted” option

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:06 PM]
Which is going to be easy for technical ppl

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:07 PM]
I think they offer setup for ppl who don’t have the chops too

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:07 PM]
Audit not sure but to me if it’s 2k USD (and they’re super responsive )

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:07 PM]
I think it’s worth giving it a go

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:07 PM]
And they’ve been around for a while. I actually found them from gemini ai

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:07 PM]
When looking for several options

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:08 PM]
While core can fund this I think it would be a good thing for the CFC to fund

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:09 PM]
Now payments is proving…more challenging

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:10 PM]
They want 300k volume a day on mexc

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:10 PM]
And even then not guaranteed and they’ll count it as a relisting

Reuben Yap, [10/31/2025 5:10 PM]
Sounds a bit iffy

Fiend ish, [11/1/2025 6:41 AM]
Aye. This seems like a decent step in the right direction, especially considering the wordpress modules.

Fiend ish, [11/1/2025 6:43 AM]
With the other options, I don’t like that they’l just delist etc. We need more security and assurance than that.

Fiend ish, [11/1/2025 6:44 AM]
Also price is very reasonable compared to alternatives.

Reuben Yap, [11/3/2025 9:41 PM]
Any other votes ?

Antibit, [11/3/2025 9:49 PM]
I thought this was just a silent discussion. If we’re talking about SHKeeper, and $2,000 for integration, we haven’t spent that much in a while

Reuben Yap, [11/3/2025 9:50 PM]
Eh ?

Antibit, [11/3/2025 9:50 PM]
We haven’t spent anything at all for a long time :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Antibit, [11/3/2025 9:50 PM]
Sure why not

Reuben Yap, [11/3/2025 9:51 PM]
I mean I could be requesting from CFC for core

Reuben Yap, [11/3/2025 9:51 PM]
But I am using PUP’s funds first

Reuben Yap, [11/3/2025 9:51 PM]
Cause I don’t want to deplete CFC funds just for core needs unless necessary

Reuben Yap, [11/3/2025 9:52 PM]
Ideally CFC funds initiatives outside core work

Алексей Васильев, [11/3/2025 9:59 PM]
My vote - Yes

Nrsimha, [11/3/2025 11:01 PM]
I am not sure about this one. So will vote later if there will be some good arguments for it or against it.

rehrar, [11/3/2025 11:03 PM]

I vote Aye on this proposal. I think the cost is very reasonable at only 2k USD. I also like that SHKeeper will support Spark and supports a wide range of currencies. My hope would be that more users would discover Firo this way.
