How to accept payment with WooCommerce Lightning<\/h2>\n

Accept payment with WooCommerce Lightning. If you run an online store based on WooCommerce, you can accept Bitcoin and Lightning payments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For instructions on how to accept Bitcoin payments with WooCommerce, check out the post: “Accept Bitcoin Payments with WooCommerce<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you are using a Lightning implementation based on lnd (Lightning Labs), then the above post is recommended. Because the WooCommerce plugin BTCPay fo WooCommerce supports lnd Lightning in addition to Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

However, you can also offer both variants in your online store. In the beverage store http:\/\/store.coincharge.io\/<\/a>, the customer will find Bitcoin and Lightning options when selecting payment options.<\/p>\n

If he chooses Bitcoin, Bitcoin will be displayed as the default. However, the customer can also switch to Lightning within the payment page. However, the customer can also choose Lightning directly, in which case the payment page based on C-Lightning will be used.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

When paying, the end customer has the alternative on the payment page, between Bitcoin and Lightning payment. It can be selected on the payment page:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2715″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]\n

WooCommerce mit c-lightning<\/h2>\n

Besides the Lightning implementation lnd there is also the implementation of c-lightning. If you are using a c-lightning implementation, then you can use that under WooCommerce as well.<\/p>\n

However, another plugin must be used here. The WooCommerce plugin by C-Lightning can be obtained exclusively from the Github page. To do this, go to the page: https:\/\/github.com\/ElementsProject\/woocommerce-gateway-lightning<\/a> and download the pugin named woocommerce-gateway-lightning.zip. After that you go to WordPress under Plugins and Upload Plugin and then install the zip file.<\/p>\n

If you installed and activated it correctly, then under WooCommerce > settings > payments you will find the Lightning payment method listed:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2713″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]\n

\n
\n

In order for our store to communicate with our C-Lightning Node, we click on Configuration and need to store the address of the Lightning Charge Server and the Lightning Charge API token.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2711″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]\n

\n
\n

In order to be able to enter the appropriate details in WooCommerce, we go to our BTCPay server in the Server Settings section and then Service. There we click at C-Lightning (Charge Server) on See Information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2709″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]\n

On this page, under Credentials, you will find the required information that will be inserted into the WooCommerce fields:<\/p>\n
