How it works
Free Swiss Bitcoin Pay app on iOS, Android or as a web app; staff join by scanning an activation QR code and cannot send funds or see balances. Reads Bolt Card NFC payment cards (iOS and Android apps; web app only on Android Chromium). Optional Bitcoin Merchant Kit with a Bitcoinize Android terminal (NFC reader and receipt printer).
Setting up
Sign up with an account name, email, password and a payout wallet and/or bank details, and start accepting right away with no waiting period. No ID needed for unverified accounts up to the limits below. Higher limits need business verification (company extract, UBO ID, selfie, proof of address) or individual verification.
All fees as published
1% on what you keep in bitcoin, 1.5% on what you auto-convert to fiat (charged pro rata if you split). Lightning to on-chain conversion and miner fees for payouts to your wallet are paid by Swiss Bitcoin Pay. Manual bank transfers below the payout minimum cost 1 CHF / EUR / GBP or equivalent. 0% fee for the first 3 months when signing up with a referral code.
Getting paid
Bitcoin goes to your own wallet (hardware wallet, xPub/address, or Lightning address). Optional auto-convert of any percentage to fiat in 12 currencies (including CHF, EUR, GBP) paid to your bank. Bank transfers run daily at 0:00 UTC once the balance reaches 50 CHF / EUR / GBP (or 100 CHF equivalent for other currencies). On-chain payouts to your wallet run monthly by default (weekly or daily selectable); Lightning address payouts are instant.
Limits
Unverified accounts: 1,000 CHF (or equivalent) per day and 5,000 CHF per year (25,000 CHF per year if based in Switzerland). Verification lifts these limits. Note: on-chain payouts are batched (monthly by default), so funds wait with Swiss Bitcoin Pay until the payout date unless you choose daily payouts or a Lightning address.
