Paying with Lightning

Lightning Network payments are instant — your order is fulfilled immediately upon payment.

Prerequisites

• The store page must have Lightning payments enabled by the seller
• You need a Lightning-compatible wallet (Phoenix, Breez, Zeus, Alby, etc.)

How It Works

When a store page supports Lightning, the payment page shows a Lightning payment option alongside the on-chain QR code. Lightning payments are processed via the seller's Lightning address.

Paying

1. Place an order as usual from the store page
2. On the payment page, choose the Lightning option
3. Scan the Lightning invoice QR code with your wallet
4. Approve the payment

Instant Fulfillment

Unlike on-chain payments that require block confirmations, Lightning payments settle instantly:

You pay Lightning invoice
  → Seller's Lightning node settles
  → Webhook notifies Ludilol
  → Order immediately fulfilled
  → Games unlock in your library
