Hi Nostr, Launching soon—
moneydevkit — Global Payments at the Speed of Light
moneydevkit makes it easy to start accepting payments anywhere in the world. Just 5 minutes and a few lines of code.
 Stripe is the de facto payment solution for developers but theres entire swaths of the globe that aren’t served by it. Similarly, everyday people with legitimate businesses get their payments turned off by stripe because the traditional financial system doesn’t want to serve them. Money Dev Kit is the easiest way to get started taking payments online. Easier than stripe. No onboarding or approvals. 170 countries. Your payments are yours. Under the hood, it’s self-custody and lightning. None of the headache, nodes channels etc. The interface will be truly stripe level and better. After working in lightning for the past few years, the hidden alpha on the network is there are plenty of people sending and able to send payments, but there’s a shortage of people receiving them. Underserved devs are using AI to make the future of the internet, and this will be by far the easiest way for them to receive those payments. Sign up for the mailing list for early access when we launch

stripe is popular cause it works for this to work it will need users of custodial wallets (stripe 2.0), or have LN payment failures lol not super impressive, as it already exists within btcpayserver and we can see it working in the wild

Hi Nick, lets say I am running an online game that enables players to deposit and withdraw money, will let be as straightforward as sending and receiving money in paypal? Will the users need lightning accounts? Will it be as easy as depositing fiat and withdrawing fiat back?

Our first iterations will be focused on taking payments, but our goal will be integration on your side being as easy as possible. Your users will need to have Bitcoin / lightning enabled wallets. People who have coinbase / cashapp will have a relatively easy time for example. A really nice experience that some are working on is the ability to buy and send out bitcoin in one fluid motion. Imagine you’ve scanned a lightning QR from your bank account and it just works. When more catch on to this, there won’t be much of a difference. If you’d like to chat through ways to make your game happen feel free to DM me.
