Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about BareBits - Lightning Payments via Bitcoin

Yes — a BareBits server you host yourself, which is the point: your money never touches anyone else's infrastructure. Any host that can run WordPress can run BareBits, even shared hosting; set it up once and connect it here by URL. (The full plugin build from the project's GitHub releases can also install it next to your existing site for you.)

Yes, using any crypto exchange. BareBits is compatible with Strike which can do instant conversion and is available in 100+ countries.

To wallets you control: your own Lightning wallet, your own on-chain wallet (xpub), or a Cashu mint of your choosing. The BareBits admin walks you through it. Lightning funds can be directed to your wallet via: CLINK noffer, NWC, or LNURL (lightning address). We suggest Electrum wallet.

Only the WordPress-side wiring is removed. A BareBits server installed alongside WordPress keeps running, and its data directory (which holds wallet keys) is never deleted by this plugin. The record of where that server lives — including its saved admin password, which is your only way into its dashboard — also survives, so reinstalling the plugin later offers to reconnect it.
