ACCEPT BITCOIN & LIGHTNING PAYMENTS WITH GIVEWP

Enable seamless, low-fee Bitcoin payments with GiveWP— no coding required.

With the Coinsnap Bitcoin payment plugin for GiveWP, you can extend your existing donation and fundraising setup by adding Bitcoin payments (On-chain + Lightning) directly to your GiveWP donation forms and campaigns—without changing your established workflows.

You stay in full control of how payments are processed: connect the plugin either to your BTCPay Server or to your Coinsnap account, and all Bitcoin donations are sent directly from the donor’s wallet to your own Lightning or on-chain wallet. If you prefer not to hold Bitcoin, you can configure Coinsnap so that all proceeds are automatically settled in euros to your bank account.

The Bitcoin checkout can be fully customized to match your fundraising setup: choose the payment method name, upload your own icon or logo, define the display texts shown during checkout, and set the redirect destination after a successful donation.

The plugin integrates seamlessly with GiveWP donation forms and fundraising campaigns, enabling fast, chargeback-free Bitcoin and Lightning donations for nonprofits, foundations, creators, and fundraisers—without rebuilding forms or introducing a separate checkout system.

ACCEPT BITCOIN IN GIVEWP – THE SOLUTION FOR MANY USE CASE

WHO IS THIS PLUGIN FOR?

GiveWP is purpose-built for donations and fundraising: it is used by nonprofits, foundations, creators, and mission-driven projects to run donation forms, fundraising campaigns, recurring giving programs, and supporter contributions directly on WordPress.

GiveWP supports traditional payment methods through native and add-on gateways (most commonly Stripe and PayPal), which makes it a popular choice for organizations that want to accept online donations without running a full e-commerce system.

However, GiveWP does not include native support for Bitcoin or Lightning payments. Organizations that want to accept decentralized, low-fee, and irreversible donations therefore need an additional payment integration to extend GiveWP beyond conventional payment rails.

With Coinsnap’s Bitcoin Payment for GiveWP plugin, Bitcoin and Lightning donations can be added either alongside existing Stripe or PayPal setups or as a standalone donation option—enabling new donor segments and providing a simple, chargeback-free alternative for modern fundraising workflows.

Bitcoin Payments for GiveWP – Attract New Supporters and Donations

By combining GiveWP with the Coinsnap Bitcoin Payment plugin, you extend your fundraising setup with Bitcoin payments (on-chain and Lightning)—adding a modern, global donation option alongside traditional payment methods.

Bitcoin donations enable fundraising scenarios that are difficult or inefficient with card-based processors such as Stripe or PayPal, especially for small donation amounts, international supporters, and spontaneous one-time contributions, where fees, chargebacks, or payment restrictions can reduce effectiveness.

By accepting Bitcoin and Lightning directly within GiveWP donation forms and campaigns, organizations can collect small contributions, tips, and micro-donations efficiently, without minimum fees, rolling reserves, or chargeback risk—making Bitcoin particularly well suited for grassroots fundraising, creator support, and global donor audiences.

This plugin turns GiveWP donation forms into flexible, cost-efficient fundraising interfaces, opening up new supporter segments while preserving the familiar GiveWP donation workflow.

Add Bitcoin Payment to Your GiveWP to:

  • Make it easy for supporters to give
    Offer Bitcoin and Lightning as additional donation options in your GiveWP forms, allowing supporters to contribute in the way that suits them best.
  • Enable small acts of generosity
    Accept small, spontaneous donations that help supporters take part—even when they can only give a little.
  • Welcome supporters from anywhere in the world
    Bitcoin donations allow people to support your cause regardless of borders, banking access, or local payment limitations.
  • Ensure more of each donation reaches your mission
    Lower transaction costs help preserve the value of donations, especially for smaller contributions.
  • Support community-driven and grassroots fundraising
    Bitcoin and Lightning work well for ongoing support, creator-led initiatives, and community campaigns that rely on many small contributions.

Why Bitcoin Payment for GiveWP Makes Sense

Bitcoin donations for GiveWP open up new ways for people to support your mission—especially supporters who may not have access to traditional payment methods or who prefer to give digitally and globally.

Thanks to low transaction costs, Bitcoin and Lightning make it possible for supporters to contribute small but meaningful amounts, ensuring that more of each donation goes directly toward your cause rather than being lost to fees.

With Coinsnap, you can offer Bitcoin and Lightning as donation options alongside existing methods such as card payments or PayPal, giving supporters more choice while strengthening your organization’s ability to fund its work sustainably and transparently.

Can I accept Bitcoin and Lightning donations with GiveWP?

Yes. With the Coinsnap Bitcoin Payment plugin for GiveWP, you can accept Bitcoin and Lightning donations directly in GiveWP donation forms and fundraising campaigns. Donations will be deposited instantly into your Lightning or on-chain wallet or, if preferred, automatically converted and paid out in euros to your bank account—chargeback-free and alongside existing methods like Stripe or PayPal.
