Apirone vs Strike API

Apirone provides businesses with fully on-chain cryptocurrency payment processing through web tools and an API. Each account uses dedicated blockchain addresses to receive and store funds, allowing transactions to be tracked individually. The API supports multi-currency accounts, invoices, exchange rates, fee estimates, and HTTPS payment callbacks. Businesses can choose manual withdrawals, batch payouts, scheduled transfers, threshold withdrawals, or Instant Forwarding; a single batch payout can send to up to 100 recipients. Checkout options include a payment form, button, mini cart, donation widget, and plugins for WooCommerce, PrestaShop, and OpenCart. The integrations page lists Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, TRON, and stablecoins on TRC20, ERC20, and BEP20 networks. Apirone says payments settle directly on-chain and its infrastructure does not use third-party custodians. It does not work with fiat money, so businesses choose their own exchange-rate source and conversion approach. The percentage fee option charges 1% on outgoing transactions, plus network fees; incoming payments are credited in full.

Strike API is a paid, HTTP-based REST-style API for programmatic cash and bitcoin transactions. It works across the Bitcoin blockchain and Lightning Network, with cash payouts to external bank accounts. Businesses can send, receive, exchange, and direct payments, create invoices or receive requests, and credit incoming funds to a Strike account as cash or bitcoin. Checkout options include Lightning invoices, on-chain Bitcoin addresses, QR codes, and receive requests; settlement can be cash, bitcoin, or both. OAuth Connect lets users authorize third-party applications within granted permissions and scopes, while webhooks notify applications about supported events. Authentication uses a non-expiring account API key or an expiring OAuth access token. The browser API Explorer can send requests and supplies cURL, Go, Python, and Node.js examples. A sandbox uses simulated balances and testnet bitcoin. Business accounts, regional availability, and verification are required. Pricing is on request.
