Traditional Payments Cost You Money

Every card swipe takes a cut. Every chargeback takes more.

The Card Payment Problem

2.5-3.5% processing fees Every transaction, Visa, Mastercard, and your processor take their cut. Foreign cards cost even more.
Chargebacks & disputes A customer disputes a charge and you lose the product, the revenue, and pay a $15-25 penalty fee on top.
2-5 day settlement Your money sits in someone else's account for days. Cash flow problems hit hardest when business is good.
Fraud & stolen cards When a stolen card is used at your business, the real cardholder disputes and you eat the cost.

The Lightning Solution

Near-zero fees Lightning network fees are fractions of a penny. Keep what you earn.
Zero chargebacks Lightning payments are final and irreversible. Once paid, it's yours. No disputes, no penalties.
Instant settlement Funds hit your wallet the moment the customer pays. Seconds, not days. Reinvest immediately.
No fraud risk Customers scan a one-time QR code. No card numbers, no magnetic strips, no reusable credentials.
