Easy payment from website to my blink wallet

At first I had issues because my server was blocking outgoing connections and my website could not connect to their API, but once I fixed that it worked perfecly. My Woocommerce store lets users check out and pay with lightning instantly, which arrives in my blink wallet on my mobile phone.

This plugin makes accepting bitcoin lightning super fast and easy. After setup of their wallet on a mobile device with a phone number, backup with email address, connect to their API and you are accepting bitcoin. A low friction setup compared to many past alternatives.
