₿ Pay with BitcoinFrequently Asked Questions
Why do I need a Strike or OpenNode account?
Lightning Enable is API middleware that connects your platform to a payment provider (Strike or OpenNode) for payment processing. Your provider is a payment infrastructure provider that facilitates Bitcoin custody, settlement, and (optionally) conversion to fiat. Think of Lightning Enable as the integration layer between your application and your provider's infrastructure.
Which provider should I choose?
Strike (recommended) supports preimage extraction for L402 and is ready to use immediately with no KYB required to start. OpenNode supports automatic fiat conversion and bank settlements, but requires KYB verification (2-4 business days) for production. Check each provider's current fee schedule for details.
What are the total fees?
Lightning Enable charges a flat monthly subscription ($99-$299/mo) with NO per-transaction fees from us. Your payment provider may charge their own processing fees — check your provider's current fee schedule for details.
Can I start testing immediately?
Yes! With Strike, generate an API key and start accepting real payments immediately. With OpenNode, use their testnet (development) environment right away — no KYB required. OpenNode mainnet requires KYB approval, but you can build and test while waiting.
What is Lightning Enable's role in payment processing?
Lightning Enable is API middleware that connects your platform to Strike or OpenNode. We don't hold or control funds. Your chosen provider is a payment infrastructure provider that facilitates custody, settlement, and compliance. Consult with legal counsel regarding your specific regulatory obligations.
What happens if I cancel my subscription?
Your Lightning Enable API key will be deactivated at the end of your billing period. Any funds in your provider account remain yours — we never touch them. You can resubscribe at any time to reactivate your integration.
What's the difference between the plans?
Agentic Commerce — Individual ($99) provides full REST API and L402 access for individual developers — a limited time offer. Kentico Commerce ($249) provides full REST API access with native Xperience by Kentico integration for e-commerce. Agentic Commerce — Business ($299) provides full REST API access plus the L402 protocol for pay-per-request API monetization with white-glove onboarding — ideal for AI agents and data APIs.
Do you support refunds?
Yes, Lightning Enable supports refund processing through both providers. With OpenNode, native refunds are supported. With Strike, refunds are processed as new outgoing payments. Refund capability depends on your provider account having sufficient balance.
What Lightning Enable Does NOT Do
Lightning Enable is API middleware. Your chosen provider (Strike or OpenNode) handles custody, settlement, and compliance. Consult with legal counsel regarding your specific regulatory obligations.
