Contactless Bitcoin payments via Lightning Network
Bolt Card functions through a combination of standard NFC technology, the Lightning Network, and LNURL protocols. When a user taps the card on a point-of-sale device that displays a Lightning invoice, the payment is processed within seconds and settles instantly. CoinCorner highlights that this removes friction from Bitcoin transactions, making them comparable in speed and convenience to contactless fiat payments.The company states that the card is designed to be accessible for a range of users, including those new to Bitcoin who want a simple and reliable way to spend crypto without needing to manage QR codes or scan wallets on their smartphones.
Available as debit-style card or Bitcoin gift card
CoinCorner offers multiple Bolt Card formats, allowing users to configure the card as either a debit-style spending card or a gift card prepaid with Bitcoin. This flexibility caters to a wide range of use cases – from daily spending to gifting BTC in a user-friendly, physical format. All versions of Bolt Card support seamless Lightning payments and utilize the same contactless technology.The company positions this product as a major step forward in merging traditional payment experiences with Bitcoin’s Lightning infrastructure, aiming to expand merchant adoption and make crypto payments more mainstream.
