What are bitcoin payment gateways?

Accept BTC on-chain and via Lightning. These providers let businesses accept payments, track confirmations, and settle funds in crypto or fiat — with dashboards, APIs and plugins for common platforms.

How to choose

  1. Match supported coins and networks to your customers.
  2. Compare total fees — transaction, settlement and withdrawal.
  3. Check fiat settlement and payout speed.
  4. Confirm plugins or API for your stack.
  5. Review security controls and compliance.

FAQ

Start with the coins and networks your customers use, then compare fees, settlement options and the integrations you need.
