22 sats \ 4 replies \ @siggy47 OP 3 Dec \ parent \ on: Quick Advice Regarding Merchant Accepting BTC and LN Payments? bitcoin
I know him and his business well. What I didn't know is that people have been ASKING him if they can pay in bitcoin! Can you believe it? It is a business that sells product all over the world, and banks and credit card companies don't want the business. To be clear, it's legal, but the red tape is crazy.
For a business that operate mostly online through a web is quite easy nowadays to integrate BTC payments.
If you want I can extend quickly that guide I sent you, adding some instructions about running your own server.
You can even use your LND node as funding source with a LNbits instance hosted on his own server, PC, VPS, whatever. LNbits occupy very few resources and can be spin up in few min. Only needs a functional funding source.
Anyways, I suggest to not be in a hurry, analyze all the options and decide later.
Ask me anything if you need more advice.

I was just on the phone with him. He already signed up with Zaprite, downloaded the woo app, and is asking me what an xpub is! His website guys almost have him set up. I am going to use my Alby node to get him started on LN. I must say, the Zaprite support was very good.
reply
Cool, nice that you sorted out!
xpub is only when is using an onchain method and can use from his own wallets. Just obtain it from his wallet, using Sparrow or any other app that can show it off.
For LN must provide a funding source, that also can be your LN node.
reply
Yes, that's right. He's going to use his cold wallet xpub for the site accepting on chain. For now I'll let him use my LN hub for his retail site, but knowing him he'll be running his own node pretty soon.
