 If you use Mullvad, please send them an email and ask them to support lightning payments. They currently support onchain only and frankly that’s sad :( 

Thank you! Together we can make things happen!! 
 Don’t even know what that is. 
 Seriously? 😳 
 Yeah, is it like a vpn? 
 Ya 
 Oh, so perhaps I’ve heard of it, never tried it though. I use Proton For all that stuff.

 How does this work? 
 Just follow the instructions, seems that proxisto.re seema that doesn't accept ln, but I remember use it in the past paying in ln, anuway the other link is the one I normally use, it's cheaper, a and it's like a voucher system where you put your account number, pay, and more time gets added to your account 
 I actually did email them several months ago and they told me it was in their plans. 
 That’s nice! Maybe if enough of us harass them at once they’ll rush it! 

I also told them about nostr haha 
 Yeah, I they're missing a great opportunity within the Bitcoin and Nostr ecosystem. They are already one of the very few VPNs I have any amount of trust for. 
 Exactly! Shill them on Nostr too! (Whoever reads this) 
 A more extreme option would be to send them an email of you sending sats via Lightning to one of their competitors lol But I have liked Mullvad for years. They've always been receptive when I've made suggestions and some of them have actually been implemented. The update process for RPM used to be more tedious. Now it's handled with my system updates. 
 Totally agree.

Just had to get a few months and had to pay on chain. Sucked ass tbh. 
@ODELL  - you endorse them a shit ton... can you get on the horn too? :Dance:  
 That’d be amazing 😻

 Used this. Works great 
 The service from LnVPN is excellent! I also acquired a number with them, and everything worked perfectly without any issues.

 My workaround is buying amazon gift cards with lightning, and then using that to buy mullvad topup cards that either i will use or sell for sats peer to peer 
 Wouldn't this be easier?

 Aren't you still paying the on chain conversion fee? I thought the point was to stay within Lightning to avoid the fees. Unless I'm missing something nostr:nprofile1qqsph3c2q9yt8uckmgelu0yf7glruudvfluesqn7cuftjpwdynm2gygprpmhxue69uhkv6tvw3jhytnwdaehgu3wwa5kuef0qyt8wumn8ghj7am0wshxummnw3ezuurpwf68jtcpzdmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuef0gn5qes 
 How can you avoid fees if you're paying the profit of the person selling you the Amazon gift card?

 Asks for acc number 😬 
 i've been using that one for years and it worked fine for me

if you don't want to input the account #, they also have an option to buy vouchers you can input to top up your mullvad account yourself 
 Where are the vouchers? I don’t see it. Proxy one had that but no lightning option 
 the button after "Want to purchase a voucher without logging in?" 
 lol WTF, didn’t even see that. Should rename to buy vouchers :/ 
 Cool, it works!! Ty 
 IVPN for the win! 
 i can email & ask sum frens also 
 https://vpn.sovereign.engineering/ 
 How does that work? It's even cheaper than upping directly on Mullvads page.  
 They must bulk buy. 
 Luckily, LN works like charm with IVPN   @IVPN on Nostr
 
 I think u can buy gift cards from them via lightning.  
 @Mullvad VPN ⚡️⚡️⚡️please!!! 
 Actually if you use Mullvad please switch to a real VPN

Mullvad doesn't even have port forwarding 
 Meanwhile, you can pay Mullvad with lightning here https://vpn.sovereign.engineering 
 Lighting is gay. Just use monero like a real nigga 
 Proxy store doesn’t seem to have a lightning option 🤷‍♂️ 
 I’ve used this one and worked great
