Add lightning invoice and ln-url withdrawal for my little website..
1st solution: Create and maintain a node by myself, the initial cost will be around 15$/month + a lot of time..
2nd solution: Just use OpenNode and pay 1% for every transaction.
I don't want to sound condescending here. But there are many free LnUrl services for a "little website" on the Internet. Also setting up a node might be techie but it isn't THAT hard to pay a whole percent or would cost 15$ a month.
Thanks for the info..
Many merchants are familiar with stripe/paypal workflow, so they can easily on board lighting payment with OpenNode.
Could you please share some LnUrl services they can support lN invoice and LN-URL withdraw? I'd love to try..
reply
Would you use this service if they didn't support LNURL withdrawal right away (if it's a feature that's coming very soon). Only normal withdrawals (user has to paste bolt11 invoice)
reply
have you tried lnbits.com? I think it already has all the feature I need
reply
Nice! You are building this? Can I try it first?
reply
Yes actually. Should I contact you through here when it's ready for you to try?
reply

That is true. Especially if they handle/guarantee timestamps of transactions for taxes and stuff and compability with cards it might be very worth it. I hope Block does some big moves in this direction very soon.

What about here? Stacker News can do this. If it's what I imagine a "little website" to be ... why not receive a coffee every now and then here?
Also, with Bolt12 QR codes for static Lightning addresses I expect this to become widespread everywhere for every wallet app out there.

It's entirely reasonable to not want to manage a lightning node on top of one's own business. It takes time and thought away from the main business.
