"Satoshi didn't create Bitcoin to sit idle in wallets. It was designed to move value between people," said Mark Zalan, CEO of GoMining. "With the launch of the GoBTC Pay SDK and API, we're giving merchants and wallet providers the infrastructure to bring that vision into real-world commerce in a way that is seamless and intuitive for users. We believe Bitcoin's next chapter will be defined by how people use it, in addition to how many people own it."Non-custodial Bitcoin paymentsGoBTC Pay is designed to facilitate direct Bitcoin transactions while allowing users to retain control of their assets throughout the payment process.The Gen1 release includes merchant onboarding tools, payment management features, a web-based merchant dashboard, online payment integrations, public developer documentation, and an open API that can be integrated by wallet providers and institutional partners.

Rather than requiring users to convert Bitcoin into fiat before making purchases, the system is intended to support a more direct payment experience while remaining non-custodial.GoMining's mining infrastructureThe protocol operates through GoMining's private 15 EH/s mempool infrastructure built on the Stratum V2 mining protocol.According to the company, this setup allows GoBTC Pay transactions to receive priority processing within participating mining operations. The platform targets an average settlement time of approximately 12 hours while maintaining settlement directly on the Bitcoin network.GoMining says the goal is to provide a payment experience that feels similar to traditional debit card transactions while preserving Bitcoin's self-custody and on-chain settlement properties.A key feature of the system is its incentive structure.Merchants using GoBTC Pay pay a 0.2% transaction fee. That fee is split equally between participating wallet providers and miners within the GoMining pool that process settlements.The company believes this model creates economic incentives for all parties involved in facilitating Bitcoin payments, encouraging broader ecosystem participation and helping drive real-world transaction activity.The launch follows GoMining's introduction of GoBTC Pay at the Consensus conference in Miami and forms part of the company's broader strategy to increase Bitcoin's utility as a payment network.By opening access through developer tools and merchant integrations, GoMining aims to accelerate adoption among businesses, wallets, and service providers seeking to offer Bitcoin payment capabilities without relying on custodial intermediaries or off-chain conversion processes.The company views the SDK and API launch as the first step toward building a larger ecosystem around direct Bitcoin commerce and everyday payment use cases.
