Rizful: First Steps

We recommend Rizful as the easiest way to get started with Lightning payments and Nostr zaps.

What is Nostr?

Nostr is an uncensorable protocol for social networks where you can make money in "zaps" by posting your content. Use a Rizful address to receive these zaps by hooking it up to an app like Jumble.social, Yakihonne, Damus, Primal, or Amethyst.

4. Request a test zap

To get a small test payment from Rizful:

1. Create a new Nostr post.
2. In the post include:
   • your ___@rizful.com Lightning Address
   • the text @Rizful.com

That tells Rizful to send a small test zap. Most users receive it within a few hours.
