A Lightning Address looks like an email address, for example [email protected], and anyone with a Lightning wallet can send bitcoin to it.
With Direct to Bank, Aureo takes it one step further: every payment that arrives at your Lightning Address is automatically converted to Mexican pesos and sent to your bank account via SPEI. It is a simple way to get paid in bitcoin and receive pesos, with no extra steps.
Before you start
Your identity verification (Tier 1) must be approved.
You need a bank account registered in Aureo to receive the peso payouts.
Find your Lightning Address
Open the account menu in the top-right corner and select Aureo Direct.
Select Direct to Bank.
Your personal Lightning Address appears, together with a QR code. Tap the QR code or the copy button to share it.
Open the account menu and select Aureo Direct.
Choose between Direct to Wallet and Direct to Bank.
Your Lightning Address, its QR code, and the destination bank account.
How it works
Anyone can pay your Lightning Address from any Lightning-compatible wallet, in Mexico or abroad.
Aureo converts the bitcoin to pesos at the market rate the moment the payment arrives.
The pesos are sent by SPEI to the destination account shown on the same screen. Tap the pencil icon to change it.
The minimum payment is $100 MXN worth of bitcoin.
Practical takeaway
Share your Lightning Address the way you would share your CLABE. Freelancers can put it on invoices, and businesses can accept bitcoin without ever holding it. You always end up with pesos in your bank account.
