They charge you like any other service but they do all the payment stuff. Also they have plugins for most open source shopping carts <a href="https://bitpay.com/bitcoin-shopping-cart-plugins" rel="nofollow">Bitpay plugins</a>
Also keep you wallet offline to avoid problems.</p>

I want to automatically reward users for doing certain actions, so I guess keeping wallet offline is not going to work. The second question is how much can I trust bitpay?

You can trust them in a way you trust any other payment gateway...How do you know that paypal will not disappear tomorrow with you funds? Bitpay is the largest bitcoin payments gateway [read this article](http://bitcoinmagazine.com/bitpay-receives-another-round-of-venture-capital-funding/)

Keeping wallet online is very insecure, I would at least keep it away from the server and only connect to central database to get list of transaction to send.

@Moonwalker - Wordpress and Mega both use Bitpay to accept bitcoin payment.  I think Namecheap does also.

<p>Coinapult has an API that you can use to send coins to a user's mobile SMS/text number or via e-mail.  </p>

<p>It's not really the right way to do it but it is one way of doing it.</p>

<p>You could also do it by distributing an Instawallet URL.   The person that knows the Instawallet URL can spend the funds.</p>
