Accepting Bitcoin is much easier than it was a year ago. At NameTerrific[1] we use Blockchain Wallet[2] to temporarily hold transactional funds. Whenever a customer places an order and chooses to pay by Bitcoin, we will use Blockchain API to generate a Bitcoin address for the invoice. After the customer pays, they can press a "Check Payment" button and then the system will simply check the balance of the Bitcoin address generated. If it's greater than or equal to the invoice balance, it's considered "paid". We keep a history of Bitcoin exchange rates (the NameTerrific rate) for tax purposes. All invoices have records of the applied BTC/USD exchange rate so they can be translated into fiat amounts in the books. For Australians, the GST is being accounted using the daily rate method (BTC/USD rate from the invoice, and daily AUD/USD rate from an official source). The wallet gets cleared every 10 BTC or so to prevent theft.
