How Merchants Can Unlock Seamless Bitcoin Payments with the OPAGO PAY Terminal

Hello Stacker News, and happy Monday!

Some of you might have seen merchant references from us occasionally, but we wanted to take a moment to specifically highlight our Lightning Terminal and our service.

The @OPAGO_PAY LIGHTNING POS Terminal is an excellent choice for small to medium-sized merchants who want to accept Bitcoin payments at the point of sale. It’s incredibly easy to use, ensuring fast transactions and reducing customer wait times. With integrated Lightning Network support, payments are secure, cost-effective, and processed almost instantly. Its compact design fits perfectly into any retail environment, making it simple for staff to operate. Merchants can easily introduce Bitcoin as a payment option without needing complex or costly technology.

Additionally, revenue can be exported in various formats for accounting purposes. Currently, we offer CSV, PDF, Cointracking.Info reports, and now, the DATEV Export Report.

Our Terminal is non-custodial, and you can even operate it with your own node. However, if you choose a self-custodial Lightning wallet for payouts, make sure you have enough inbound liquidity to receive payments.

We hope this gives you a better understanding of what our Lightning Terminal and Service can offer.
