Coinsnap or BTCPay Server
The add-on supports:

- BTCPay Server — connect your own self-hosted BTCPay Server.
When BTCPay Server is used, a Coinsnap merchant account is not required for the payment processing itself.
GetPaid payment flows
The current Coinsnap GetPaid product supports Bitcoin in:
- payment forms
- invoices
- checkout buttons
- subscriptions
- recurring billing
- retainers
GetPaid-powered WordPress integrations
GetPaid can act as a payment layer for other WordPress plugins and applications.
Coinsnap can therefore extend Bitcoin payments into compatible GetPaid-powered integrations, including form, invoicing and directory workflows.
Bitcoin discount
The current Coinsnap GetPaid product supports an optional Bitcoin discount.
A fixed or percentage-based discount can be applied specifically to Bitcoin payments.
Micropayments and new billing models
Lightning makes small payments practical.
Combined with GetPaid, this can support low-value digital services, pay-per-use access, usage-based billing, deposits, tips, donations and paid lead qualification.
Payment status mapping
Coinsnap uses the payment states:
- Expired
- Processing
- Settled
These can be mapped to the corresponding GetPaid invoice/payment statuses.
Settlement
With Coinsnap, payments can be settled to a compatible Bitcoin or Lightning wallet.
One option is the Coinsnap Wallet.
Coinsnap follows a non-custodial / self-custody approach and does not hold merchant Bitcoin.
Depending on the merchant setup and supported partner integrations, Bitcoin payments can also be automatically converted and settled to a bank account.
Fees
Coinsnap charges a 1% transaction fee. The fee is handled separately through the merchant’s Coinsnap balance and is not deducted from the Bitcoin payment.
