Hey!
Our business model is a bit different than what you are asking, let me tell you what we're doing and how we are going about it.
We are building a platform that we Bitcoiners can use as a tool to tip/gift Bitcoin to users that do not know anything about Bitcoin.
The problem we're trying to solve is:
  1. Begin able to tip/gift Bitcoin to a no-coiner in the fastest way possible.
  2. Not have to onboard the user - ex: show them how to download an LN Wallet.
  3. Maker sure the user who receives the tip/gift has enough guidance/education to start their Bitcoin journey.
  4. In case the receiver does not show interest in learning about Bitcoin then I don't lose my sats. (The tip you send is set with an expiry date to create urgency on the receiving side to claim it, download an LN Wallet, and then withdraw their sats).
So all in all, we're building an onramp for no-coiners via tips/gifts where the user will go through different self-onboarding journeys to start exploring what the capabilities are with Bitcoin and the Lightning Network.
But we'll keep in mind what you asked though, maybe later down the road we can also add the functionality of being able to share your profile to receive tips.
Maybe check out https://widgets.twentyuno.net/get-started it lets you create a widget to share on websites where you can receive tips via your LN Address and people can also send you notes via the tip.

Ok thanks! That was not super clear! Maybe you could add some more notes or onboarding UX to the site to outline that better?

Yes thank you for the suggestion, we're working on the onboarding UX hopefully we can have an initial release in two weeks.
The focus for the proof of concept was being able to fund a tip, give it to someone and the person be able to claim it and withdraw their sats to their LN Wallet.
Now we need to start building out the UX/UI for a whole self-onboarding flow.
