# LNURLp
## Create a static QR code people can use to pay over Lightning Network
LNURL is a range of lightning-network standards that allow us to use lightning-network differently. An LNURL-pay is a link that wallets use to fetch an invoice from a server on-demand. The link or QR code is fixed, but each time it is read by a compatible wallet a new invoice is issued by the service and sent to the wallet.
[**Wallets supporting LNURL**](https://github.com/fiatjaf/awesome-lnurl#wallets)
## Usage
1. Create an LNURLp (New Pay link)\
![create lnurlp](https://i.imgur.com/rhUBJFy.jpg)
- select your wallets
- make a small description
- enter amount
- if _Fixed amount_ is unchecked you'll have the option to configure a Max and Min amount
- you can set the currency to something different than sats. For example if you choose EUR, the satoshi amount will be calculated when a user scans the LNURLp
- You can ask the user to send a comment that will be sent along with the payment (for example a comment to a blog post)
- Webhook URL allows to call an URL when the LNURLp is paid
- Success mesage, will send a message back to the user after a successful payment, for example a thank you note
- Success URL, will send back a clickable link to the user. Access to some hidden content, or a download link
2. Use the shareable link or view the LNURLp you just created\

- you can now open your LNURLp and copy the LNURL, get the shareable link or print it\

# Offline Shop
## Create QR codes for each product and display them on your store for receiving payments Offline
[![video tutorial offline shop](http://img.youtube.com/vi/_XAvM_LNsoo/0.jpg)](https://youtu.be/_XAvM_LNsoo 'video tutorial offline shop')
LNBits Offline Shop allows for merchants to receive Bitcoin payments while offline and without any electronic device.
Merchant will create items and associate a QR code ([a LNURLp](https://github.com/lnbits/lnbits/blob/master/lnbits/extensions/lnurlp/README.md)) with a price. He can then print the QR codes and display them on their shop. When a costumer chooses an item, scans the QR code, gets the description and price. After payment, the costumer gets a confirmation code that the merchant can validate to be sure the payment was successful.
Costumers must use an LNURL pay capable wallet.
[**Wallets supporting LNURL**](https://github.com/fiatjaf/awesome-lnurl#wallets)
## Usage
1. Entering the Offline shop extension you'll see an Items list, the Shop wallet and a Wordslist\
![offline shop back office](https://i.imgur.com/Ei7cxj9.png)
2. Begin by creating an item, click "ADD NEW ITEM"
- set the item name and a small description
- you can set an optional, preferably square image, that will show up on the costumer wallet - _depending on wallet_
- set the item price, if you choose a fiat currency the bitcoin conversion will happen at the time costumer scans to pay\
![add new item](https://i.imgur.com/pkZqRgj.png)
3. After creating some products, click on "PRINT QR CODES"\
![print qr codes](https://i.imgur.com/2GAiSTe.png)
4. You'll see a QR code for each product in your LNBits Offline Shop with a title and price ready for printing\
![qr codes sheet](https://i.imgur.com/faEqOcd.png)
5. Place the printed QR codes on your shop, or at the fair stall, or have them as a menu style laminated sheet
6. Choose what type of confirmation do you want costumers to report to merchant after a successful payment\
![wordlist](https://i.imgur.com/9aM6NUL.png)
- Wordlist is the default option: after a successful payment the costumer will receive a word from this list, **sequentially**. Starting in _albatross_ as costumers pay for the items they will get the next word in the list until _zebra_, then it starts at the top again. The list can be changed, for example if you think A-Z is a big list to track, you can use _apple_, _banana_, _coconut_\
![totp authenticator](https://i.imgur.com/MrJXFxz.png)
- TOTP (time-based one time password) can be used instead. If you use Google Authenticator just scan the presented QR with the app and after a successful payment the user will get the password that you can check with GA\
![disable confirmations](https://i.imgur.com/2OFs4yi.png)
- Nothing, disables the need for confirmation of payment, click the "DISABLE CONFIRMATION CODES"

## Create a static QR code people can use to withdraw funds from a Lightning Network wallet
![lnurl](https://i.imgur.com/qHi7ExL.png)
LNURL is a range of lightning-network standards that allow us to use lightning-network differently. An LNURL withdraw is the permission for someone to pull a certain amount of funds from a lightning wallet.
The most common use case for an LNURL withdraw is a faucet, although it is a very powerful technology, with much further reaching implications. For example, an LNURL withdraw could be minted to pay for a subscription service. Or you can have a LNURLw as an offline Lightning wallet (a pre paid "card"), you use to pay for something without having to even reach your smartphone.
