Introduction

LNbits core is a powerful wallet accounts system you can access on all your devices.

Easy to set up and lightweight, LNbits can run on any Lightning Network funding source and even LNbits itself! You can run LNbits for yourself, or easily offer a custodian solution for others.

Each wallet has its own API keys and there is no limit to the number of wallets you can make. Being able to partition funds makes LNbits a useful tool for money management and as a development tool.

Extensions add extra functionality to LNbits so you can experiment with a range of cutting-edge technologies on the lightning network.

Internal Phoenixd Node

Internal Phoenixd nodes are not accessible from the Internet. If you choose to add an internal Phoenixd node then only your LNbits service will be able to connect to it. This is better for security but means that you cannot access your node from other applications.

Using an internal Phoenixd node with LNbits means you won't need to worry about channels or liquidity as this is automatically taken care of. See the Phoenixd service page for further information.
