OpenNode

OpenNode is a Bitcoin payment processor that enables businesses to accept Bitcoin payments and issue payouts globally. The platform supports both Lightning Network transactions, which settle instantly at near-zero cost, and on-chain Bitcoin transactions, giving merchants flexibility in how they receive funds.

Founded in 2018 and headquartered in the United States, OpenNode serves businesses across more than 160 countries. It provides a hosted checkout, payment buttons, invoicing tools, a REST API for developers, and e-commerce plugins for platforms including Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop, and OpenCart. Merchants can opt to receive settlements in Bitcoin or automatically convert payments to a local currency such as USD, EUR, or GBP at the time of transaction.

The platform includes built-in fraud protection, two-factor authentication, and multisig security. OpenNode eliminates chargebacks by design, as Bitcoin transactions are irreversible. It is aimed at e-commerce merchants, SaaS businesses, content platforms, and developers seeking a programmable Bitcoin payment layer.
