How does Bitcoin Lightning payment work with Coinsnap for Shopify?

After your customer made his selection, and clicked on Checkout, he will see the checkout form. Here he adds is personal and shipping information, and selects Pay with Bitcoin/Lightning. Next, he must click on Review order (see image on the right).

In the Review and pay screen, the customer has to click on Complete order, if everything is correct:

Complete order in Shopify
Selcting Bitcoin Payment in the Shopify store checkout

On the Confirmation page that now appears, your customer will start the actual Bitcoin Lightning payment by clicking on Pay with Bitcoin.

Initiate the Bitcoin Lightning payment now

Now the actual Bitcoin payment window opens and the customer can pay with Bitcoin Lightning by scanning the QR code and authorizing the transaction in his Bitcoin Lightning wallet

After successful payment, the customer will receive a notification that the payment has been successfully completed.

During the ordering and payment process, the customer is informed by e-mail about the respective status of his order.

The customer will receive the first notification by e-mail after the order is successfully placed and another notification after the payment is successfully completed.

Scan and authorize the Bitcoin Lightning payment

It is important to note that with Shopify, the order is placed first and only then is payment made. Both the customer and the store operator receive a message that the payment was successful. However, this does not mean that the payment has been successfully completed at the same time. Care must be taken to ensure that the customer has also paid successfully.

After successful payment, the status of the order is changed from Unpaid to Paid on the Shopify order page. The merchant can now start shipping the goods. At the same time, the deposited amount will be credited to the Lightning Wallet.

Shopify Manual Payment Methods

Shopify offers its own payment processing with Shopify Payments for various payment methods such as credit card, Google Pay and Apple Pay. These payment methods are prominently placed by Shopify to encourage their use.

In order to offer payers additional payment methods besides those offered by Shopify Payments, there are manual payment methods.

These manual payment methods are, for example, payments by cash on delivery or bank transfer.

A payment via Bitcoin and Lightning Payments is considered a manual payment by Shopify and Shopify does not charge any additional fees for this.

Wie man Bitcoin in Shopify akzeptiert

Shopify also does not offer the option to set a custom order of the payment methods offered, for example, to position Bitcoin and Lightning payments higher up. Changing the order can be done via paid apps.

On the listed payment methods page, Bitcoin and Lightning payments via Coinsnap are displayed as Bitcoin + Lightning. This setting can be changed. Just make sure to use the word Bitcoin.

Displaying a Bitcoin or Lightning icon is not supported by Shopify.

What do you need to offer Bitcoin Lightning payment in your Shopify store with Coinsnap?

It is actually very simple to add Bitcoin Lightning payment to your Shopify store. All you need is a Coinsnap account, a Bitcoin Lightning wallet, and to connect Coinsnap with your Shopify store.

Open an account with Coinsnap

To open an account with Coinsnap, click here or on the menu item REGISTER in the top menu.

Register a Coinsnap account
open a Coinsnap account

You will then be asked to provide your email address, choose a password and enter a Coinsnap discount code. (If you do not have one, you can always add it later.) Then click Create account.

You will then receive an email that you must confirm.

When you sign up for the first time, you will be asked for the name of your business. This name will later be displayed to your customers so they know which store they are paying at.

After that, you will be prompted to enter a Lightning address.

Then enter the Lightning address, which is similar to an e-mail address. Your customers’ Bitcoin and Lightning payments are forwarded to this Lightning address and credited to your Lightning wallet.

How you can quickly get a Bitcoin Lightning wallet and your Lightning address we’ll describe below.

Connect Store with Coinsnap

Get a Lightning Address

A Lightning address looks like an email address, but instead of sending and receiving messages, you can use it to send and receive Bitcoin and Lightning payments. If you don’t have a Lightning address yet, choose a Lightning wallet that provides you with a Lightning address.

We have created an overview that lists all Lightning wallets where you can get a Lightning address.

As an example, we show you next how to set up a Wallet of Satoshi and how to find your Lightning address. (It’s a very similar process with other Lightning wallets.)

You have two options for obtaining the Wallet of Satoshi.

Either you go to the website https://www.walletofsatoshi.com/ and there you will find the two download options for the App Store or Google Play.

Or you can go directly to the store on your smartphone and search for the Wallet of Satoshi.

After you have started the Wallet of Satoshi on your smartphone, you will see a Receive button at the bottom left. Click on it.

The adjacent window opens. Below the QR code you will find the Lightning address, which looks like an e-mail address. This is your Lightning address, which you can give to anyone you want to receive sats from.

You deposit this Lightning address with Coinsnap and all incoming Bitcoin and Lightning payments are credited directly to your Bitcoin Lightning wallet via the Lightning address.
