How BTC Payment Gateway Works

Our BTC payment gateway manages the entire payment process end to end. We generate a unique Bitcoin address or Lightning invoice for each order, monitor the network for confirmations, and notify your server as soon as the payment clears. No need to run your own Bitcoin node.

Get Started
  1. 1

    Customer Chooses BTC at Checkout

    Your checkout page offers Bitcoin as a payment option. The customer can pay on-chain or via Lightning, depending on their wallet.

  2. 2

    We Generate a Payment Address or Invoice

    Our API creates a unique Bitcoin address for on-chain payments or a Lightning invoice for instant transfers. Each one is tied to the order and your merchant account.

  3. 3

    Customer Sends BTC

    The customer sends Bitcoin from any wallet. We watch the mempool and blockchain for the incoming transaction and track confirmations.

  4. 4

    Payment Confirmed, Webhook Sent

    Once the transaction reaches the required confirmations (or settles instantly on Lightning), we send a signed webhook to your server. Funds are in your account.
