January 2023 now, ...
This page on OpenNode's site still shows "Coming soon".
Stripe's Marketplace shows an entry for OpenNode but that too shows "coming soon":
https://marketplace.stripe.com/apps/opennode
Stripe has apparently gone with a whitelabel exchange instead, Zero Hash, and has branded this offering as "Link".
What is Link's relationship with Zero Hash?

Interesting.
And you can even use the cool Bolt Cards to pay in your store if you're using OpenNode, as they added support for lnurl-withdrawals!
If you're only accepting Bitcoin, then probably BTCPayServer might be a better option because OpenNode charges a flat 1% for all incoming Bitcoin transactions, but this service allows payments to be done with credit cards in any currency, and you receive BTC directly, without having to deal with any conversion for tax purposes. I assume you have to pay the credit card fees and that the exchange is done fairly.
Also they seem to have free on-chain (scheduled weekly) and lightning(on-demand) withdrawals.
This looks like a great way to add multiple payment methods, including Bitcoin.
