1. Core Vision & Strategic Philosophy
Nijipe is a REST API payment processor for Bitcoin and Lightning Network payments. Developers create invoices, redirect customers to a hosted checkout page, and receive payment confirmation via signed webhook callbacks — without managing Bitcoin nodes, Lightning channels, or UTXO state. The platform handles address derivation, mempool monitoring, fee estimation, and Lightning invoice lifecycle automatically.
By abstracting blockchain complexity (channel balance management, UTXO consolidation, address derivation, and ZMQ watchers), Nijipe allows developers to request checkouts and reconcile invoices using standard HTTP JSON APIs and secure HMAC webhook callbacks.
Nijipe operates on a 0% per-transaction fee model for our standard SaaS subscription tiers. Network transaction costs (Lightning routing fees and on-chain miner fees) are calculated independently and passed directly through without markup.
