OP Open Payment Address Protocol
Local-first no tracking

Personal payment address

One personal payment address

This is a person's root demo address. It does not need a product page or online shop: one stable address can be shared wherever it is useful.

Published payment address

https://openpaymentaddress.org/

The site hosts a small public payment file at openpaymentaddress.org/.well-known/open-payment/record/Lw. It binds exactly to https://openpaymentaddress.org/, so the same URL can be shared instead of sending payment details each time.

Where this address can be shared

Profile

Add it to a personal website or social profile.

Invoice

Include it alongside the reason someone is paying.

Message or QR code

Share the same address directly when someone asks how to pay.

The file you put online

The associated OPID record is published at https://openpaymentaddress.org/.well-known/open-payment/record/Lw

This is the actual payment file for this example. A payment app reads it to find out what the address means; people do not have to understand or edit the code.
