Lightning Pay Fees and Limits

By Lightning Pay Limited

Updated Sept 8th, 2024

 

Lightning Pay Exchange BTC to NZD

Lightning Pay's exchange service works by providing New Zealand customers easy access to bitcoin on the Lightning Network. The costs we incur for this service are variable, and largely depend on foreign exchange costs, volatility, and the difference between our purchasing and selling volume. For these costs, you will only be charged a flat rate, and you can leave the complexity to us.

When costs are incurred directly for your purchase or sell (bank fees, for example), these are the only added costs you will incur.

 

Current Fee rates for Lightning Pay's exchange service:

Buying Bitcoin - 1% + Bank Fee

Selling Bitcoin - 1%
