Just a small tip: You can use your domain name as a payment pointer by setting up a 302 redirect from /.well-known/pay to your real payment pointer, replacing $ with https://.

For people who use Netlify, here’s an example _redirects file that does this:

/.well-known/pay https://coil.xrptipbot.com/bUJCmmzwRWaC8FIx4jeppg 302
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

…and now my payment pointer is just $dt.in.th.

This has been spec’d in the Payment Pointers Spec, under the “Resolution” section and supported by Coil extension.

Is the contributor payment pointer working? All the post on DEV have the same payment pointer, I tried adding my own and nothing changed?
