Thanks! We're excited to have you test it, and happy to help!
  • I think the tech is tough. And removing friction in the user onboarding. There's a lot that can go wrong and adoption doesn't work if users don't understand how to use it.
  • There's 7 people working with us right now! Not all full time, though!
  • We are releasing Woocommerce and Shopify next week! We're super excited about this. Next will be Wix, likely in February!
  • 1% fees are done by Opennode and Speed. I think it's alright, but they are custodials. We believe a non-KYC environment and self-custody is better. And it comes with a price. If you price yourself higher, you are more exclusive. And with our new integrations, we will be the bitcoin payment gateway with the most tools out there, in full self-custody. That said, we are still exploring our pricing strategy and plan to offer different plans to different users, based on usage, etc. Our fee system is already built with flexibility.
  • Physical PoS is the one you would use in-store, in person. As opposed to a "digital PoS" that could be used for an app like uber eats for example. (This is also coming soon btw)
Hope this answers it all! :D

That's a great start, really. Well done!
1. The webapp is really user-friendly and had no problem registering and start playing around. 'll see no issue to onboard users, if not the fact that some may lack understanding of bitcoin itself. So maybe on-page education could be a bonus for newcomers. However, the onboarding tool is really useful and well-structured. 3. Really looking forward for these two first integrations. 4. This apprach make a lt of sense now. The detail on not being KYC is a big deal, I was loking around to see if there was any detail n that. Did not find any on the landing page... It could be maybe more esplicit? Or you prefer keep it as a hidden gem? WHat if "authorities" at some stage force you to implement it?

Thanks for the feedback on the web app! We're about to upgrade it even more to walk the user through the full setup and land on exactly the right page to get started for what he's looking for. Our focus is really on the user experience and guides in the platform, so I'm happy you picked this up.
That is a good point. No KYC is indeed a big deal, but we want to be careful on not confusing new users either. We are still trying to find the right way to show these groundbreaking features for payment processors, without overwhelming the users. I mean they'd get slammed with "No KYC, non-custodial, peer-to-peer, instant global payments, etc". For a non-bitcoiner, each of these is a rabbit hole in itself hehe
But education is a next step we want to be able to unlock in-app in as many places as possible, including in our documentation and as part of our soon-to-come onboarding checklist. This even gave me an idea: we could have an "Education checklist" in addition to the onboarding checklist. Very easy, very useful.
