PrivaPaid™: The Encrypted Paywall
for Your Content.
Lock it. Pay it. Unlock it. No one knows. Your content, encrypted with AES-256. Your buyer pays via Lightning — no account required, no identity, no credit card. The content decrypts in their browser. No server ever sees it.
Everyone Wants Privacy. No One Has It.
Every paywall today asks for an email, a credit card, a name. Every purchase leaves a trail. Your buyers know this — and many of them walk away instead of paying.
Every Purchase Is Tracked
Credit card statements, email receipts, account histories — every transaction leaves a footprint your buyers never asked to leave.
Accounts Are Mandatory
Want to read one article? Create an account. Enter your email. Choose a password. Verify. Now you're in a database forever.
Data Breaches Are Inevitable
If a platform stores buyer accounts, it will eventually leak. Names, emails, purchase histories — exposed. It's not if, it's when.
Encrypt. Pay. Decrypt. That's It.
No account required. No identity. No middlemen. Content is locked with military-grade encryption and unlocked with a Lightning payment.
Encrypt Your Content
Use our browser-based encryptor to lock your content with AES-256-GCM. The encrypted payload embeds directly on your page.
Buyer Sees the Paywall
Your content is visible as locked. The buyer sees a Lightning invoice — a QR code or a payment link. No signup required.
Pay via Lightning
The buyer pays from any Lightning wallet. No credit card, no personal info, no account required. Payment confirms in under a second.
Content Decrypts Instantly
Payment returns a decryption key. The buyer's browser decrypts the content in milliseconds. No server ever touches it.
An Encrypted Paywall. Not a Platform.
PrivaPaid doesn't host your content. It doesn't store buyer data. It doesn't hold your money. It encrypts, invoices, and delivers decryption keys. Nothing else.
AES-256-GCM Encryption
Your content is encrypted with the same standard used by governments and banks. The encrypted payload sits on your page — unreadable without the key.
Lightning Payment Gate
Payment happens via Bitcoin Lightning — instant, final, and private. No credit card network. No bank. No statement trail. Just sats.
Client-Side Decryption
Decryption happens entirely in the buyer's browser using Web Crypto API. No server ever sees the decrypted content. Key material is destroyed after use.
No Identity Required
No account required. No email. No name. Buyers pay via Lightning and nothing else. The transaction proves intent without exposing who they are.
No Paper Trail
Lightning payments don't go through banks or card networks. No data stored, no third-party records. Just a payment and a decryption key.
No Data to Breach
No buyer accounts, no email lists, no purchase histories to leak. Transient server logs are retained per the Privacy Policy.
Your Content. Your Earnings. No Middleman.
PrivaPaid is non-custodial — payments go directly to your Lightning wallet. No platform cut on your earnings. No chargebacks. No frozen accounts.
Non-Custodial
Your money goes directly to your wallet. PrivaPaid never holds your funds. No intermediary can freeze, hold, or delay your earnings.
No Per-Sale Fees
PrivaPaid is subscription-based. No 20% platform cut. No 10–15% processor fees. No chargebacks. Keep what you earn.
Instant Settlement
Funds arrive in your wallet in seconds. Not days, not weeks. No holdbacks, no reserves, no waiting for approval.
Any Creator. Any Content. Any Audience.
If you create content worth paying for, PrivaPaid is the paywall that doesn't compromise your buyers' privacy or your independence.
Journalists & Writers
Publish investigative pieces, newsletters, or premium articles behind an encrypted paywall. Your readers pay without signing up or leaving a trail.
Musicians & Artists
Sell unreleased tracks, exclusive visuals, or behind-the-scenes content directly. No platform taking a cut. No middleman between you and your fans.
Video Creators
Tutorials, courses, exclusive footage — encrypted and delivered instantly on payment. Your content stays locked until someone pays for it.
Educators
Gate premium codebases, research papers, or educational materials. Micropayments make even $0.50 content viable.
Podcasters
Premium episodes, bonus content, ad-free feeds. Your audience pays with Lightning and gets instant access.
Privacy-First Creators
If your audience values privacy, PrivaPaid is the only paywall where neither you nor the platform know who paid.

Why Privacy Wins
When buyers don't have to surrender their identity to access content, more of them pay. Privacy isn't just ethical — it's profitable.
Powered by the SatsRail API
PrivaPaid is powered by SatsRail — non-custodial Bitcoin Lightning payment infrastructure. SatsRail handles invoices, payment verification, and key delivery. It never sees your content, never holds your funds, and never collects buyer accounts or identity.
