Connect your credentials, set your wallet address, customise payment method appearance, and go live. Once installed, your checkout will display “Bitcoin + Lightning” (or custom label) and your customers can pay via QR code or wallet link. After successful payment, the funds appear directly in your wallet and your Shopify order status updates accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Shopify merchants ask about Coinsnap for Shopify

What are the requirements for accepting Bitcoin in my Shopify store?

You need a Shopify store, a Coinsnap merchant account, and a Lightning wallet (or wallet with Lightning address). That’s it — no deep tech setup required.

Can I keep my other payment methods while using this Bitcoin plugin?

Yes — your other payment methods remain active. The plugin adds Bitcoin/Lightning as an additional method

Is technical knowledge required to install the plugin/app?

Not really. The app from Shopify is designed for easy setup. If you prefer, Coinsnap offers a free installation service.

How does the checkout process work for the customer?

At checkout they select the Bitcoin + Lightning payment option. After clicking Review and Complete Order, they scan a QR code or use their Lightning wallet to pay. Once payment is confirmed, the Shopify order status updates to Paid.

Does Shopify charge additional fees for Bitcoin payments?

No, because Bitcoin/Lightning via Coinsnap is treated as a manual payment method by Shopify — meaning no extra Shopify transaction fee for that method.
