Woo-CLINK — Bitcoin Lightning Payment Gateway for WooCommerce

Accept Bitcoin Lightning payments on your WooCommerce store via the CLINK protocol (clinkme.dev). Customers pay with ShockWallet, ZEUS, BXRD.app, Amethyst, or any CLINK-compatible Lightning wallet. All communication flows privately and anonymously over Nostr relays — no Lightning node or web server is required for the merchant.

• Plugin on WordPress.org: clink-gateway-for-woocommerce
• Releases: github.com/WoompaLoompa/woo-clink/releases
• Demo store: woo-clink.wasmer.app
• Original announcement: stacker.news

Quick Start

1. Install the plugin
2. Configure the gateway — paste your noffer1... string
3. Generate a noffer if you don't have one yet
4. (Subscriptions) Set up Auto-Renewal

How It Works

1. Merchant generates a CLINK Offer string (noffer1...) from their CLINK-compatible Lightning wallet (ShockWallet, Lightning.Pub, etc.)
2. Customer checks out and selects Lightning (CLINK) as the payment method
3. The plugin uses the noffer to request a BOLT 11 Lightning invoice from the merchant's node over Nostr
4. Customer scans the QR code and pays with any Lightning wallet
5. Payment is confirmed via a CLINK protocol receipt — the order is marked complete

No web server required for the Lightning node. All communication flows over Nostr relays.
