The problem.

You want to accept Bitcoin at your business. But your options today aren't great.

Strike, OpenNode, Square

Easy to set up, but they hold your money, require ID verification, charge fees, and can freeze your account whenever they want. You traded one middleman for another.

BTCPay Server

Truly self-hosted and sovereign. But you need a server, Docker, Lightning channel management, and DNS setup. Realistic for developers — not for most business owners.

Nothing

This is what most businesses choose. They'd accept Bitcoin, but the custodial options defeat the purpose and the sovereign options are too hard. So they stay on Stripe.

ArxMint is the option
that didn't exist.

The sovereignty of running your own node. The simplicity of signing up for Stripe. No compromise.

Zero processing fees

Lightning routing costs less than a penny per transaction. Stripe charges 2.9% + 30¢. On $10K/month, that’s $320/month you’re losing.

Instant settlement

Money hits your wallet in seconds. Not 2–3 business days. Not “pending.” Instantly yours.

Your money, your control

No one can freeze your account, hold your funds, or shut you down. There’s no middleman to do it.

No chargebacks

Bitcoin payments are final. No disputed charges, no fraud reversals, no chargeback fees.

No KYC or ID required

You don’t need to submit ID, tax forms, or bank statements to accept Bitcoin from your customers.

Works online and in person

QR code at the counter or a payment button on your website. Same system, same instant settlement.

How it works.

Your customers

They don't need anything new.

Any Bitcoin wallet they already have works — Cash App, Strike, Phoenix, Muun, Wallet of Satoshi, Blue Wallet, Zeus, or any other Lightning wallet.

Customer scans a QR code, confirms the amount, done. No app to download, no account to create.

If their wallet speaks Lightning, it works with your business.
Your business

You keep every dollar.

Funds go directly to your wallet — not held by anyone

Settlement in seconds, not days

No monthly fees, no per-transaction fees

No account applications or approval process

The math.

Every dollar Stripe takes is a dollar that leaves your business.

$76,800/year

saved by a community of 20 merchants averaging $10K/month each.
That's money that stays local instead of going to payment processors.

Better together.

One business accepting Bitcoin is good. A whole community doing it changes everything.

Today: money leaves

Customer pays merchant via Stripe. Stripe takes 2.9%.

Merchant pays supplier via Stripe. Stripe takes 2.9% again.

Every transaction leaks money out of your community to payment processors, card networks, and banks.

With ArxMint: money stays

Customer pays merchant in sats. Zero fees.

Merchant pays supplier in sats. Zero fees.

Supplier pays another local business in sats. Money circulates locally instead of being extracted by middlemen.

This is a circular economy. Not buying and holding — actually spending and earning Bitcoin as money. The more merchants in your area that join, the more valuable the network becomes for everyone.

Under the hood

The technology exists.
The integration didn't.

ArxMint integrates the best open-source Bitcoin tools into one deployable system. Each is powerful alone — but connecting them takes weeks of DevOps. ArxMint does it in minutes.

Lightning Network

Instant Bitcoin payments. Any Lightning wallet can pay — Cash App, Strike, Phoenix, and hundreds more.

Cashu Ecash

Private digital cash tokens. Payments are unlinkable — the merchant can't track who paid what.

Fedimint

Community-governed custody. Trusted local members run a shared vault — no single point of failure.

L402 for AI Agents

AI programs can buy and sell services using the same payment rails. No identity, no accounts required.

Open source. Self-hostable. No vendor lock-in. ArxMint is the integration layer — more deployments mean more real-world users for every ecash and federation project in the ecosystem.

Bitcoin was supposed to be money.
Let's make it money.
