Accept Bitcoin payments

Accept native Bitcoin payments that settle straight to your own wallet, no custody, no platform fee, no KYC to start.

Buyers pay native BTC to a freshly derived address from your own xpub. Shieldz watches the chain and fires a signed webhook when it confirms. You hold the keys the whole time.

How it works

Create an invoice, send your customer to the hosted checkout, and get a signed webhook the moment the BTC payment lands, funds settle straight to your wallet. Shieldz is non-custodial: it only ever holds a public key.

curl https://shieldz.cash/api/v1/invoices \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_…" \
  -d '{ "amount_usd_cents": 5000, "memo": "Order #1234" }'

Buyers can pay with Bitcoin or other supported coins. See supported coins, the API docs, and official SDKs.
