That's a good channel partner. The receiving side could be not well enough connected. If you see failed payments despite the receiver has a well connected wallet, we need to look into it.

We recommend to have at least two channels for redundancy and better connectivity in the network.
Who is your channel peer?

How can I help ?🙂
Actually I did not do anything. If you have a public channel it is recommended to restart your Hub.
(But you only need public channels if you plan to receive podcast payments). Otherwise just go with private channels. Everybody can send you zaps.
Messages to support@getalby.com are usually answered quicker.

We are working on closing the gap. It is a journey and thanks to such feedback we can better prioritize. A solution to exactly this problem has been implemented already to avoid it from happening again.
And there will be a cool new landing page to explain Alby Hub better.

We are getting closer: https://github.com/getAlby/adblockplus/tree/feature-webln is AdBlockPlus with bitcoin payment functionality thanks to NWC and can possibly be linked with Cashu.me.

Hey, wanna tell us about your problem, please? Happy to look into it for you: support@getalby.com

From what I know we follow the NIP-47 spec and haven't received similar notifications from other apps.
Can we provide any information to help debugging it?

2024-01-12 09:08:28

- reply

Are you sending via the browser extension or via the app (getalby.com). If you share a screenshot or error message with support@ getalby.com, we'll take care of it.

What is not working? Could you share a error message with support@getAlby. com?

Is there a pattern of which lightning address don't work for you?
Are you using Amethyst via tor?
Just send a message to support@ getalby.com . We'll take care of it.

Could you share more details of what happend with support@ getalby. com? So we can investigate what happened?

Which Nostr app are you using? Please share some details with support@ getalby. com. I will look into it.

2023-11-21 07:29:15

Do you use tor in Amethyst? Or did you set a budget that is used up now?

2023-11-21 07:24:33

- reply

Cool. Are you thinking of a mobile wallet app or a mobile browser extension for iOS?

2023-11-19 12:25:20

- reply

You only need an email address if you want to sign up for an Alby account. But that is not needed if you connect your own node or another wallet. Downloading the extension does not require an email address.

2023-11-18 09:12:39

- reply

We don't do a good enough job in communicating the difference unfortunately. But it is an important one.
Yes, the Alby account is a managed account by Alby which requires an email to sign up. We want to make the first lightning experience as easy as possible until we have a non-custodial alternative ready.
But you can use the Alby browser extension in a completely self-sovereign way with your very own lightning node. Doing so you have full privacy with the Alby extension. All data is stored locally on your device.

OMG that looks super tasty.

2023-11-14 08:12:59

- reply

The Alby browser extension is a fully client side application. No data is shared with any party externally. Ally data is stored locally. You can have a look at the open-source code. But I agree it might be a bit surprising why all these permissions are needed. Here you can read more about it: https://guides.getalby.com/user-guide/alby-browser-extension/faqs/what-permission-does-the-extension-require

What do you mean when you say BlueWallet address?
You can connect your Alby account to BlueWallet's mobile app.

Hey, your Alby lightning address in the LN field is enough to receive zaps.
You need Nostr Wallet Connect only to send zaps. For that you can use the same Alby account to connect to Damus, Snort and many other apps that support Nostr Wallet Connect.

2023-11-05 07:39:33

- reply

Yes, current has a native wallet. Web clients usually use WebLN; mobile clients (Damus, Amethyst, Nostur, Primal) support NWC to connect a wallet; Nostrudel and zap.stream are using Bitcoin Connect which based on WebLN/ NWC

2023-11-01 08:57:41

- reply

Hey, where do you see this error message. Is that in Amethyst with your Alby account connected? Are you using a VPN or Tor network by chance?
I just could send some sats to this lightning address.

Amazing project. Have you thought about adding Nostr Wallet Connect ([https://github.com/getAlby/js-sdk#nostr-wallet-connect-documentation)](https://github.com/getAlby/js-sdk#nostr-wallet-connect-documentation)) to let users pay directly in your app like Damus or Amethyst?
That would make payments for users quite convenient.
Just let us know if we can help: [https://cal.com/getalby](https://cal.com/getalby) or per email: [moritz@getalby.com](mailto:moritz@getalby.com)

Amazing project. If your team needs any help with integrating WebLN or maybe even Nostr Wallet Connect ([https://github.com/getAlby/js-sdk#nostr-wallet-connect-documentation).](https://github.com/getAlby/js-sdk#nostr-wallet-connect-documentation).) Just let us know: [https://cal.com/getalby](https://cal.com/getalby) or per email: [moritz@getalby.com](mailto:moritz@getalby.com)
That would make payments from users quite convenient. We are also happy to test and give feedback.

Really cool project. Have you guys thought about implementing support for WebLN or even Nostr Wallet Connect [https://github.com/getAlby/js-sdk#nostr-wallet-connect-documentation?](https://github.com/getAlby/js-sdk#nostr-wallet-connect-documentation?)

How can I help with regarding Alby? I just zapped @npub1h8n…rpev Happy to help at support@ getalby. com or via DM.

Hey, I am sorry for this experience. Could you share with us your email address or lightning address and ideally a screenshot of the error message to support@ getalby. com? I will directly look into it.

2023-10-10 07:26:06

- reply

Hey Jonathan, could you share your lightning address with us at support@ getalby. com? I will look into it.
Your account can always receive payments. We had to introduce payment limits because people use Alby to rebalance their nodes. But Alby is built for using lightning on the web e.g. zapping.

2023-10-01 03:26:13

- reply

Could you send us a screenshot of this message to support@getAlby. com . I will have a look immediately.

2023-09-21 09:35:10

- reply

True. That's quite new spec though. Which app should support it in your point of view?

2023-09-01 07:18:25

- reply

Also please let us know your Alby account credentials at support@getalby.com . Then we can look for any pending payments.

Hey, Tor is still tricky and unstable here and there. Could you try it again? Will help you immediately at support@getalby.com as well.

You can send and receive if you connect your Alby account to the Zeus mobile app. We wrote a short guide here: https://guides.getalby.com/alby-guides/alby-lightning-account/connect-your-alby-lightning-account-to-other-apps/connect-to-mobile-apps/connect-to-zeus

After you "Confirm" you will see "Reveal Pairing Secret". Click it and you'll find your NWC connection string

2023-08-08 18:50:56

- reply

Why is it Alby's fault? If something like this provides value (i.e. is implemented by clients) isn't it worth considering adding it to the spec now?

2023-08-07 19:33:17

- reply

Do you want to use your Nostr private key from the Alby Browser Extension also in the Primal mobile app?
If you want to use https://primal.net/, the browser extension does everything for you and asks you to give permissions and sign events.

Good point. There is no preference setting for that yet.
Are you using Orion on iOS?

Primal has very smooth zapping integration: https://blog.getalby.com/primal-unveils-one-tap-zaps-seamless-zaps-using-webln-alby/
Have you tried it with the Alby extension? Let me know if this doesn't work.

Orion recently stopped working with Alby. We are looking into it.
