pull down to refresh

Brilliant idea. This is how i would pay a no-coiner with lightning.
Tried it out sending to myself; One minor bug to report. After opening the claim link and submitting the invoice to claim the payment, my browser got an NS_ERROR_REDIRECT_LOOP error, which occurs when a web page tries to redirect to itself. A simple refresh fixed it.
Specifically, after submitting my LN invoice, https://acceptln.com/payments/claim redirected me to http://acceptln.com/payments/claim, which is what caused the error. Hope this helps.
Unrelated question, but do you plan to allow people to claim their payments by sending the sats to other AcceptLN invoices? On one hand, this would allow people to pay each other solely over email without ever downloading a wallet, which is crazy cool. On the other hand, it might allow for abuse because I could get around the 60-day grace period by simply sending the sats back to myself at the same email address once every 60 days.

Thank you! Fixing this right now, and working on a no-refresh flow in the future, much cleaner.
Interesting idea - we’re not worried about circumventing the 60 days, if you’re taking some action that’s better than nothing. But we would really like to get folks setting up their own wallet and onboarding them beyond us. That’s our real goal. Maybe we offer a “30 more days plz” extension if they just haven’t found the time.
