Bitcoin Donation for WordPress is a plugin designed to enable WordPress website owners, bloggers, YouTubers, and online creators to accept voluntary contributions in Bitcoin, both on-chain and via the Lightning network, directly on their sites. The tool is aimed at individuals and small publishers who seek a straightforward, independent way to receive support from their audience without relying on traditional payment processors or intermediaries.
The plugin offers three ready-to-use templates for donation forms: a simple donation form where supporters can enter any amount and leave a message, a multi-amount form that presents predefined contribution options, and a shoutout form that allows donors to send a message that is published on the website after successful payment. These forms can be embedded anywhere on a WordPress site—within posts, pages, sidebars, or footers—using shortcodes, and are available in both wide and narrow layouts to suit different placement needs. No coding skills are required for installation or use, making it accessible for users with varying technical backgrounds.
Bitcoin Donation for WordPress facilitates direct payments to the website owner's wallet, supporting both Lightning and on-chain Bitcoin transactions. Additionally, through integration with Coinsnap partners such as Bringin or DFX, users have the option to convert Bitcoin donations into euros and deposit them into their bank accounts. The plugin also supports connection with a self-hosted BTCPay Server, enabling users to maintain full control over the payment process and settlement.
This plugin is particularly suited for those publishing content such as blog posts, tutorials, videos, podcasts, or guides, and who wish to monetize their work through voluntary audience support. By bypassing conventional payment platforms and regulatory hurdles, it provides a frictionless and private method for creators to turn audience appreciation into tangible contributions.
In the Payments infrastructure space, Bitcoin Donation for WordPress takes a focused approach. It focuses on allowing WordPress site owners to easily accept Bitcoin and Lightning donations from visitors. It is built as a consumer product for wordPress site owners and content creators. Bitcoin Donation for WordPress follows a freemium model. Bitcoin Donation for WordPress is available on the web.
Coinsnap builds and maintains Bitcoin Donation for WordPress, and it first shipped in 2025. Among its 5 catalogued features are bitcoin donations, lightning support, and donation buttons.
