## Self-Hosted Bitcoin Payment Processors

Self-Hosted payment processors run on your server and provide you with a full control over the entire payment process and funds. There's no third-party involvement - that significantly increases the censorship-resistance, privacy, and security for you and your customers.

## Hosted Bitcoin Payment Processors

Hosted payment processors run on someone else's server. This simplifies the initial setup process, but reduces the amount of control you have over the payment process.

### Non-Custodial

These processors use your wallets for receiving payments.

| Processor | Fees | Lightning | Directly to Your Wallet | Conversion to Fiat | Requirements |
| --------- |:----:|:---------:|:-----------------------:|:------------------:| ------------ |

### Custodial

The following processors use their own wallets, not yours, for receiving payments.

⚠ They not only collect data about payments, they have full control over the funds. There are many risks associated with custodians, which might end up with lost/locked funds.

⚠ Most of them have KYB/KYC/AML requirements, which poses a serious threat to your and your customers' privacy.

⚠ They have country-based restrictions for merchants and merchants' customers.
