A LN invoice looks like this:

You can’t scan it.
You can’t click it.
And most people don’t know what to do with it.
A payment link looks like a normal link.
You tap it.
You pay in one click.
Done.
Yep, LNURL-Pay is great.
Payment Links are basically LNURL-Pay, but packaged in a way normal people actually use: a simple link, one-click pay on mobile, QR on desktop, with expiry and sharing built in.
It's just a web page to display the invoice, custodial at that...
Not really, we take an invoice and we make it scannable and/or clickable so that's super easy to pay it.
You can try yourself: https://ln.cluborange.org/i/X8uTiMzI
You take an invoice and put it on a web page. QR's are scannable because they're already standardized.
Yes, we turn an invoice into a shareable, clickable link.
That sounds trivial until you realize it removes device juggling, wallet incompatibility, and UX friction for normal users.
Same Lightning rails but much easier to pay.
Pretty easy when its custodial, if you want to make it non-custodial then check out clinkme.dev
We built a wallet directly into Club Orange after realizing ~80% of our users had never used Lightning (!). Whether we like it or not, custodial is the only way to bring LN to the masses, but you can withdraw to a non-custodial wallet anytime, any amount.
What's the point of this compared to a simple LN invoice?
