CryptoZing

Invoice Bitcoin today - track payments on-chain.

CryptoZing is a self-hosted Bitcoin invoicing app built for people who want clear USD-denominated invoices, straightforward Bitcoin payment flows, and reliable on-chain payment tracking.

Create an invoice in USD, present a live BTC quote and QR code your client can trust, assign a unique payment address, and let CryptoZing watch the chain for payment activity from send to settle. No manual checking. No guesswork. Just clean invoices, an easy payment path, and real on-chain signals.

Why CryptoZing?

CryptoZing is built around a simple idea:

Bitcoin invoicing should feel clear, modern, and dependable.

That means:

• USD-first quoting so invoices stay familiar and readable
• Live BTC pricing so clients see a current quote
• Unique invoice addresses so payments are easier to attribute
• On-chain tracking so status updates reflect actual payment activity
• Client-friendly delivery with public links, QR codes, and receipts

Core features

Invoice Bitcoin with clarity

• Create invoices in USD
• Store a BTC snapshot alongside the invoice
• Show a BIP21 payment URI and scannable QR code
• Auto-generate invoice numbers
• Add due dates, notes, and branding overrides

Track payments on-chain

• Assign a unique Bitcoin address to each invoice
• Watch invoice addresses for incoming payments
• Detect partial payments
• Track sats received, confirmations, and payment history
• Update invoice status automatically as payment activity arrives

Make it easy for clients to pay

• Share public invoice links
• Rotate or disable public links at any time
• Support expiration windows for shared links
• Send invoice emails
• Track delivery and receipt flows when invoices are paid

Stay in control

• Connect a wallet account public key
• Validate wallet keys before saving
• Keep payment tracking tied to your own wallet lineage
• Review deliveries, alerts, and payment corrections inside the app

Product highlights

• Wallet-ready - account public key support with on-chain watching
• Client-friendly - public links, QR payments, and receipts
• Accurate - USD-first quoting with partial payment awareness
• On-chain aware - payment visibility from send to settle
• Delivery-ready - email sends with status logging
• Self-hostable - run it on your own infrastructure

How it works

1. Connect a wallet account public key
2. Create a client
3. Create an invoice in USD
4. CryptoZing derives a unique payment address for that invoice
5. Share the invoice using email or a public link
6. The client pays by scanning the QR code or using the Bitcoin URI
7. CryptoZing watches the chain, records payment activity, and updates invoice state

Built for practical Bitcoin invoicing

CryptoZing is not trying to be a wallet.

It is an invoicing layer that helps you:

• quote cleanly
• collect cleanly
• verify cleanly
• communicate cleanly

The goal is a smoother path between invoice created and invoice settled.

Quick start

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/n8bar/CryptoZing.git
cd CryptoZing

Copy your environment file

cp .env.example .env

Bootstrap dependencies

composer install

Run this once to install vendor dependencies and make ./vendor/bin/sail available. After that, use Sail for Composer, npm, and Artisan commands in this repo.

Start the app with Sail

./vendor/bin/sail up -d

Install frontend dependencies with Sail

./vendor/bin/sail npm install

Generate the app key and run migrations

./vendor/bin/sail artisan key:generate
./vendor/bin/sail artisan migrate

Build frontend assets

./vendor/bin/sail npm run build

Then open the app in your browser.

Development

Run the dev stack

./vendor/bin/sail npm run dev

Run tests

./vendor/bin/sail artisan test

Run the payment watcher

./vendor/bin/sail artisan wallet:watch-payments

Wallet setup notes

CryptoZing expects an account-level public key for invoice receiving.

Important:

• Do not paste a seed phrase
• Prefer a dedicated receiving account
• CryptoZing derives invoice addresses from that account key
• Reusing the same account elsewhere can make payment attribution less reliable

Email and sharing

CryptoZing supports queued email delivery for invoice sends, receipts, owner notices, and client alerts.

Public invoice links are tokenized and can be:

• enabled
• disabled
• rotated
• set to expire
