Core Products/Services

Strike's primary B2B offerings include the Strike API and Strike Business:

Strike API is an enterprise-grade Bitcoin and Lightning Network payments infrastructure product. It enables developers and businesses to programmatically make and receive bitcoin and cash transactions via the Bitcoin blockchain and Lightning Network. The API supports sending, receiving, exchanging, directing payments, making cash payouts to bank accounts, and third-party integrations via OAuth. It provides REST-based endpoints, webhook support, a sandbox testing environment, and comprehensive developer documentation with code examples in cURL, Go, Python, and Node.js. Key capabilities include asset flexibility (cash or bitcoin), network interoperability (Bitcoin blockchain and Lightning Network), payment finality (no chargebacks), borderless payments, near-instant Lightning settlements, and scalability from micropayments to $100M+ transactions.

Strike Business is a dedicated platform for companies of all sizes to buy, sell, hold, send, and receive bitcoin. It provides unlimited bitcoin purchases, institutional-grade bitcoin custody, and transactions over the Bitcoin and Lightning Networks. Businesses can add bitcoin to their corporate treasury and enable bitcoin payments for customers. The platform features tiered fees as low as 0.49%, full 1:1 bitcoin backing (no lending or rehypothecation), and a dedicated business dashboard with multi-user security controls.
