Bitcoin Lightning Network Integration
Accept instant Bitcoin payments via Lightning Network. Sub-second confirmation. Under 0.5% fees.
Why Bitcoin Lightning Network?
The Bitcoin Lightning Network is a Layer 2 payment protocol built on top of Bitcoin that enables near-instant transactions with fees under 0.5%. While standard on-chain Bitcoin transactions can take 10 to 60 minutes to confirm, Lightning Network payments confirm in under a second. For eCommerce, this means the checkout experience feels identical to a credit card transaction. The customer scans a QR code from their Lightning-compatible wallet, the payment confirms instantly, and the order processes.
No waiting for block confirmations. Dominate generates a unique Lightning invoice for each order, handles the payment confirmation callback, and reconciles the order automatically. Processing fees run under 0.5%, roughly six times cheaper than credit card processing on a typical order.
