What is LNURL?
LNURL is a reusable Lightning payment link — like a Bitcoin address, but for Lightning.
- Starts with lnurl1...
- You can reuse it many times
- The faucet decides the amount (e.g. 100 sats)
ℹ️ LNURL is the safest option for faucets because users cannot request more sats than allowed.
❌ What NOT to paste
Do NOT paste Lightning invoices like:
lnbc1u1p...
These are single-use and often request the wrong amount.

Phoenix Wallet

Alby Wallet
- Open Alby (web or extension)
