Nice work! I don't know about the cheeseburger without cheese though
.
Do you know if they train employees up to be able to take orders as the guy on the other end didn't seem to know what he was doing...
I used BlueWallet for the lightning network which allowed this transaction to be confirmed instantly, and have zero transaction fee!
really? Is this some kind of promotion where the restaurant (or their payments firm) are paying customer transaction fees? That would be a smart move seeing as it's not going to cost alot to do so.
I think some transfers are charge free, my lightning network transactions on Eclair are capped at a 3% fee which seems like what credit cards charge merchants in the US (afaik I thought that was the standard charge for AMEX over there and also why they're not widely accepted here). Fees are normally unnoticeable with lightning payments though and a 330k sat payment would even have a low fee on the blockchain (without a fast conf) and this is what the LN is trying to replace.
My last transaction of £1.48 (20k sats) cost 3 sats to send for example.
There was a fee of 990 sats... which I consider to be WAY too high... I'm expecting fraction of a penny, not same as on chain transaction fees.
This guy will accept either, so unfortunately, this is a step backwards for the lightning network in my book...
As for the order in the system, yes, Nick, the owner doesn't typically deal with the POS system and putting orders in... definitely the longest part of the video, hahaah. Unfortunately, he is the only employee that will accept the bitcoin payments at this time.
If their restaurant survives covid19 (questionable
), then I will continue to try to get other employees comfortable with the system.
