We never rest - New plans.

Although our technical teams are busy and working overtime to add new features you asked for, we are looking into the future. We believe that being ready is what makes a successful business.

Our long term plans include better tools for our members to manage their accounts.
Advanced tools for merchants and their customer support teams.
Creating trust gauges to help members choose trusted merchants.
State of the art account protection system - free of charge.
Some of our plans cannot be revealed as they are just too amazing to let our competitors know about :)

As you know, most of the things we did and continue to develop came from your suggestions. Keep them coming!!


The only wish we have is to have a 36 hour day to complete all our plans as fast as possible!

SCI PHP Complete Example

Due to the enormous demand and recent changes in the LR's SCI, we created this sample PHP script to help programmers and merchants include LR into their own websites.

Get it here in our download section.

This script includes success, fail and status pages. It also has several sample forms to help you decide between basic and advanced modes.
(Advanced SCI mode is when you need to verify the data sent from LR to the status URL).

Additional PHP scripts are being developed to enhance and ease the SCI/API deployment on merchant servers.

Questions regarding SCI/API should be forwarded to tech[_at_]libertyreserve.com

Thank you for your suggestions and help.

Firefox wins!

Latest statistics from our servers show that the majority of our users prefer browsing Liberty Reserve with Firefox.

1. Firefox - 49.91%
2. Internet Explorer - 40.72%
3. Opera - 7.51%
4. Mozilla - 1.14%
5. Safari - 0.38%
6. Netscape - 0.21%
7. Mozilla Compatible Agent - 0.04%
8. Camino - 0.02%
9. Konqueror - 0.02%
10. Lynx - 0.01%

For extra security we recommend using Firefox with the 'NoScript' add-on, which further enhances Firefox's protection against malicious scripts and cross-site-scripting (XSS) exploits.

Reported delays / Possible system outages

Please note that it has been reported by many users today that our system is running slower than usual. Our technical development team suspects a possible ddos attack and is trying to confirm this with our ISP. Please note that if you will experience any unusual behavior of our web site, such as: pages loading slowly, server too busy messages, or any other error messages while you are accessing our web site - it may all be due to this attack. Please note that we are aware of the situation and are continuously working on monitoring it and rectifying it in a timely manner.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you may experience.

SCI Form Generator

Due to enormous demand we have created a smart generator that can help you generate a button or a link with which you could accept payments from your customers. This wizard will generate an appropriate HTML code for your website based on your store/business requirements.

LR SCI Form and Link Generator

You can combine this code together with our buttons:

Banners and Buttons


Full store example is being developed as we write these lines.

All your requests and suggestions are being developed in the order they were received.

Updated SCI

We have updated our SCI to allow merchants ignore SCI store parameter. This option is now optional and is needed only if you wish to authenticate the LR response. Please check your SCI code to make sure it is working (although these changes should not break your code).

New scripts and examples are soon to follow.

We are working on all your requests and suggestions. Thank you for helping us improve LR. Your input benefits everyone!

Mass payment PHP script + scheduled downtime

Scheduled Downtime
There will be a short scheduled downtime at 11:00 (GMT) September 9th that could last for up to one hour.

Mass Payment and Upcoming Scripts
We have published our mass payment sample script in our download section. Although a couple of users had minor issues with installations that we had addressed in a timely manner, the vast majority of script users are satisfied!

At the moment, our end-user software team is working on additional PHP script that would expand the features of a mass payment script.

Core developers are working on improving SCI system (both the scripts and the settings) to allow easier configuration and additional implementation options for software developers.

Our system administrators were upgrading our server array this weekend, which resulted in a few "Server is too busy" messages.

Your suggestions and requests are always welcome.

Unscheduled System Maintanance/Expansion

Please note that today, Friday 7th, 2007 our web site will not be available for the most part of the day. We are expanding fast and adding additional servers to accommodate the increased traffic and activity that our system is experiencing. We apologize for any inconvenience this unscheduled expansion may have caused you. Rest assured that we are working round the clock to complete this enormous task and would like to express our appreciation for your patience as we go through our growing pains.

Temporary problems

Our web site is experiencing technical difficulties possible due to a DDOS (distributed denial of service) attack.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

PHP Sample Scripts

Due to a high demand we are working on several sample scripts:

• Mass Payment Tool - this tool will allow you to make single or mass payments with one click of a button! (completed - will be posted tomorrow on our web site)
• Sample Shop - includes all sample pages needed by businesses that wish to accept LR payments from their customers. (will be completed by the next week or sooner)

We would like to thank all people that helped us shape and test our SCI and API systems.

Please forward all questions regarding API/SCI to:

Welcome to Liberty Reserve’s official blog.

We created this blog to provide news, updates, introduction to new features, and as a way to receive feedback from you, our client.

Everything you see on the Liberty Reserve (“LR”) web site was created to serve you! Every feature is meant to make your experience safe, easy, and productive.

It took years of research to find the proper security options that would help protect your account even if your computer is compromised without making it too complicated or expensive for you.

LR Wallet is a unique feature that gives you fast access to a portion of your funds. It is a sub-account that you can load from your main account.

The Privacy Option, also a unique feature of Liberty Reserve, allows you to hide your account number from the recipient of your funds.

Our Modern API and SCI allows merchants and financial organizations to receive, verify and send money automatically and securely.

There are many more features, options and tools that we created based on your recommendations and suggestions. We, at Liberty Reserve, value the relationship we have built with our members, which has helped to produce one of the fastest growing digital currencies in the world.

As a corporate policy, LR does not go to outside forums to discuss LR issues, which is why we have a highly trained staff to answer questions via email and live support.

Let us work together to make LR even better!
