Strike Bitcoin Payment Acceptance

Strike enables businesses to accept Bitcoin payments from customers via a developer API and dedicated business platform, with the option to receive fiat equivalents upon settlement — removing the need for businesses to hold bitcoin while still offering Bitcoin as a payment method.

Payment API for Developers

The Strike API allows developers to integrate Bitcoin and Lightning Network payment acceptance directly into applications and checkout flows. It follows standard REST principles with predictable resource-oriented URLs, JSON-encoded bodies, and standard HTTP response codes.

Key capabilities include:

• Payment APIs and SDKs: Programmatic integration of bitcoin payment acceptance into any application
• Instant Fiat Settlement: Receive fiat equivalents for bitcoin payments, with no requirement to hold bitcoin
• Lightning Network Support: Accept Lightning payments that settle instantly for a frictionless customer experience
• Borderless Acceptance: Accept payments from customers anywhere in the world with equal ease
• Payment Finality: Bitcoin payments have no chargebacks or reversals once delivered
• OAuth Connect: Enable third-party application integrations via Strike OAuth Connect
• Webhooks: Event-driven integrations for real-time payment notifications
• Sandbox Environment: Test payment integrations without affecting production accounts
• Code Examples: Available in cURL, Go, Python, and Node.js
