ACCEPT BITCOIN IN SHOPIFY – THE SOLUTION FOR MANY USE CASES

WHO IS THIS PLUGIN FOR?

The Bitcoin payment for Shopify module is ideal for Shopify merchants who want to reduce chargebacks, benefit from low payment fees, and serve customers worldwide by offering Bitcoin at checkout—with instant settlement of proceeds to their Lightning or on-chain Bitcoin wallet, or, if preferred, in euros to their bank account.

Beyond this, Coinsnap’s Shopify Bitcoin payment plugin is the easiest and most cost-effective solution for Shopify stores who want to:

  • Request our free integration service directly from your Coinsnap dashboard: We install the module for you – free of cost! Learn more here!
  • DIY: Do it yourself by following our detailed, step-by-step installation guide.
  • A payment method with no additional Shopify fees: Bitcoin Lightning payment is considered a “manual payment” by Shopify, so Shopify does not charge any additional fees for this.
  • Offer Bitcoin payments to engage the emerging and growing group of crypto-affinebuyers, without unnecessary bureaucratic or technical overhead. These customers also tend to show higher loyalty and fewer product returns.
  • Sell high-value or premium products using on-chain Bitcoin to reduce paymentcosts, avoid rolling reserves, and reach customers in regions with non-convertible currencies or weak banking infrastructure.
  • Sell products that are subject to BIN blocks in certain jurisdictions, as Bitcoin payments do not rely on card networks or issuing banks.

Taken together, these features make Coinsnap the most practical solution for Shopify merchants seeking to reduce payment friction, retain control, and unlock new business models and offerings that were previously technically or commercially unviable, or not feasible under applicable regulations in certain jurisdictions.

The Shopify Bitcoin payment plugin allows merchants to accept Bitcoin payments (On-chain + Lightning) with instant settlement, no chargebacks, and full self-custody. Payments can be received in a Bitcoin wallet or settled in euros to a bank account. The module is free, open source, and compatible with BTCPay Server.

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.
