Accept Lightning payments<\/span><\/h1>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”70px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Do you already accept Bitcoin payments, but your Bitcoin payment provider does not support the Lightning payment option?<\/p>\n

For example, if you use a crypto payment provider such as Coinbase or crypto.com or share someone’s BTCPay server, the Lightning payment option is not available.<\/p>\n

However, anyone who offers their customers crypto payments cannot avoid Bitcoin payments via the Lightning network.<\/p>\n

Especially in times of high Bitcoin transaction fees, Lightning is the cheap and efficient option for lightning-fast Bitcoin payments.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”5628″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n

Here, Coinsnap offers a supplement to the crypto payment providers already in use:<\/h3>\n

Integrate Coinsnap into your online store alongside your existing Bitcoin payment method. In the list of payment methods available to the customer, you designate the Coinsnap function as a Lightning payment and add the Lightning logo.<\/p>\n

If the customer wants to pay with Bitcoin, they use the Bitcoin-only payment provider. If the customer wants to pay with Lightning, they can choose Lightning payments via Coinsnap.<\/p>\n

If your customer accidentally selects Lightning and still pays with a Bitcoin wallet, you will not lose any revenue. This Bitcoin on-chain payment is also processed and forwarded to your Lightning Wallet.<\/p>\n

You don’t lose any sales. Quite the opposite. You offer customers who want to pay with Lightning a way to pay with you.<\/p>\n

Open an account with Coinsnap and enter your Lightning address. You then integrate the appropriate Coinsnap payment module into your store system. The exact procedure is described under “Getting started<\/a>“.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]On the selection page of the supported payment methods in your store, change the description text for your customers from Bitcoin+Lightning to Lightning.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”5630″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Your customers will be informed that they can pay with Lightning in addition to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n

The sales of your customers who pay with Lightning in your online store are credited directly to your own Lightning Wallet.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
