Bitpay is the enemy of Bitcoin. I can list here a lot of reasons. Stay away from them.

I could tell once I googled the company. It is interesting that a major US theater chain is accepting bitcoin, though in a shitty way. Maybe it won't be long until we can pay on LN.

Bitpay hates LN because they were the main supporters of S2X in 2017 block size wars. Bitpay will never implement LN.
People should totally boycott Bitpay and Conbase.

I didn't mean through bit pay. I meant a direct lightning payment to AmC Theaters.

They can do that but will have to implement their own payment processor with BTCPay server and dump any intermediary.
But many merchants are retarded and lazy.
