Litecoin has been a dependable payments cryptocurrency for over a decade — often called the "silver to Bitcoin's gold". It confirms transactions faster than Bitcoin and costs very little to send, which makes it a practical choice for everyday store purchases.

For a WooCommerce store, Litecoin is the practical everyday-payments coin. It clears in minutes, costs almost nothing to send and has worked the same way for over a decade, so it is dependable for the kind of small and mid-sized orders where Bitcoin's fees and wait times get in the way. VelozaPay forwards every LTC payment straight to your own Litecoin wallet — no processor, no account, no KYC.

Why Litecoin

Why accept Litecoin on your store

Faster confirmations

Litecoin blocks are found about every 2.5 minutes — roughly four times faster than Bitcoin — so customers are not left waiting.

Very low fees

Litecoin network fees are tiny, which keeps small and mid-sized orders economical to pay with crypto.

A long, stable track record

Litecoin is one of the oldest cryptocurrencies still in active use and is widely recognised by everyday crypto holders.

Payment gateway

How the VelozaPay Litecoin payment gateway works

When a customer chooses Litecoin at checkout, VelozaPay opens a payment page that locks the LTC amount to your order total, shows a one-time Litecoin address with a QR code, and monitors the Litecoin network for the incoming transaction.

Litecoin targets a block every 2.5 minutes, so payments are usually confirmed quickly. Once the transaction is seen on-chain, the LTC is forwarded to the wallet address you set in the plugin and a REST callback marks the WooCommerce order paid — automatically, with no dashboard to check.

Quick confirmations

Litecoin's 2.5-minute block target — about four times faster than Bitcoin — means customers are not left waiting on a pending screen.

Very low network fees

An LTC transaction costs a tiny amount, so even small orders stay economical to pay with crypto.

Direct on-chain settlement

Each payment is forwarded straight to your Litecoin wallet. VelozaPay never holds the funds or runs an account.

  2. 2

    Customer pays LTC

    At checkout the customer picks Litecoin, scans the QR and sends the payment.

    The LTC settles on-chain to your wallet and the WooCommerce order is marked paid automatically.

Payments are made and settled on the Litecoin network (LTC).

Pricing

What it costs to accept Litecoin

The VelozaPay plugin is free, with no monthly or setup fees — you pay only a small flat percentage on a transaction when a customer pays. There are no chargeback fees, because a confirmed Litecoin payment cannot be reversed.

The Litecoin network fee is paid by the customer when they send the transaction, and it is famously small — usually a tiny fraction of the order. That low fee is the main reason Litecoin works so well for everyday-sized purchases where a larger Bitcoin fee would eat into the sale. Settlement to your wallet carries no payout fee.

Use cases

Stores that benefit most from Litecoin checkout

Litecoin's speed and low fees make it a strong fit wherever order values are everyday-sized.

Small and mid-sized orders

Low LTC fees keep crypto checkout economical on the kind of order where Bitcoin's network fee would be disproportionate.

Stores that need fast confirmation

A 2.5-minute block target means orders move to paid quickly, which suits digital goods and fast fulfilment.

A lighter Bitcoin alternative

Customers who hold Litecoin get a familiar, proven coin to pay with — and you reach them without adding complexity.

Frequent, repeat purchases

When customers buy often, low per-transaction fees add up to a real saving over card processing.

FAQ

Litecoin payments — questions

Is Litecoin faster than Bitcoin?

Yes. Litecoin targets a 2.5-minute block time versus Bitcoin's 10 minutes, so LTC payments are typically confirmed sooner.

Are Litecoin fees high?

No. Litecoin transaction fees are very low, which makes it well suited to smaller orders where Bitcoin fees would be disproportionate.

Where does the LTC go?

Straight to the Litecoin wallet address you set in the plugin. VelozaPay never holds it and there is no account to create.

What does it cost to accept Litecoin?

The plugin is free with no monthly fees; VelozaPay takes only a small flat percentage when a customer pays. The customer covers the Litecoin network fee, which is typically tiny.

Is there a minimum Litecoin order amount?

Litecoin's low fees mean even small orders are practical, but there is still a sensible floor. Live per-coin minimums are listed on the minimum order amounts page.

Can I refund a Litecoin order?

Litecoin transactions are irreversible, so refunds are sent manually from your wallet — the same as any direct on-chain payment.

Do my customers need an account to pay with Litecoin?

No. They pay from their own Litecoin wallet on the payment page — there is no sign-up, no ID check and no account on either side.
