PayRam Bitcoin Payments

First time with PayRam? See payram-setup to configure your server, API keys, and wallets.

PayRam supports on-chain Bitcoin with a unique architecture: HD wallet derivation for deposits, mobile app signing for sweeps—no private keys ever touch the server.

Native BTC or bridged BTC? PayRam also has a Smart Bridge Bitcoin rail: the customer pays in BTC and you receive USDC on Base. Rails are on by default, and since 3.7 an enabled Bitcoin rail replaces the native Bitcoin option at checkout. If you want to receive native BTC, switch the rail off in Project → Payment options (payram_runbook task smart_bridge).
