it seems like this is aimed at shitcoiners mostly, the wallets they list as examples are Metamask and some Solana thing..

Ouch, Onchain for a max $15 purchase.

I wonder if they are doing zero confirmation transactions.  So one does not have to wait.

Wumbo

Nice research, I didn't even check the details. This looks like it's for shitcoiners, not Bitcoin people. Fuckers!

Popular convenience store chain Sheetz is now offering 50% off your purchase when you pay with crypto via Flexa, every day between 3 PM and 7 PM.  

Flexa is currently licensed or otherwise registered to operate as a money services business in the United States, Canada, and El Salvador. Our federal and local licenses (as applicable) are renewed annually and can be provided on request.

One of the most powerful features of Flexa Payments is our ability to authorize a payment from any digital currency wallet app or network in less than a second, a feature made possible because every payment made with Flexa is fully backed by on-chain collateral.

I think it's basically a crypto payment processor. From what I can tell, it's not like they'll accept Lightning. Probably will accept onchain, but it seems like you'd be paying Flexa who would then issue a payout to the merchant.
