South Africa’s fast food chain RocoMama accepts Bitcoin Lightning payments at more than 100 locations nationwide.
The restaurant chain implements a Lightning network payment system that allows for faster and cheaper Bitcoin transactions when compared to the main Bitcoin blockchain. The Lightning network allows customers to lower transaction fees and make almost customary payments.
LocoMama operates as a burger and rib restaurant chain with locations all over South Africa. With adoption, accepting Bitcoin payments for food purchases will become one of the country’s well-established retail chains.
Lightning Network is a two-tier payment protocol that runs on top of Bitcoin’s blockchain, designed to drive unrealistic small and frequent transactions in the main network due to fees and processing times.
