Open the app, tap “Get started”, pick a username and verify with your phone number. Write down the backup phrase the app shows you — it is the only way to recover your money.
Add some bitcoin
In Costa Rica the easiest way is to buy with SINPE Móvil directly in the app (Bull Bitcoin partnership), or at a Bitcoin Jungle ATM/merchant. Travelling? Send a little from any exchange or wallet you already use to your new Lightning address (username@pay.bitcoinjungle.app).
Scan our invoice
When you book with us and choose Bitcoin, we show a QR code. Tap “Scan” in the app, point it at the screen (or tap “Open in wallet” on your phone) and confirm. It settles in seconds, with almost zero fees.
Send us the proof
Open the transaction in the app and copy the “Proof of payment” (preimage). Paste it on our booking page — we verify it instantly and your spot is confirmed.

Bitcoin questions
Why do you accept Bitcoin?+
It lets guests from anywhere pay us directly, instantly and without card fees or bank delays — and it fits our philosophy of parallel, community-run systems. Costa Rica has one of the most active Bitcoin circular economies in the world.
Do I need to buy a whole bitcoin?+
No. Bitcoin is divisible into 100 million “sats”. A $50 tour is roughly 65,000 sats — you only ever hold what you need.
What if the price moves?+
Our invoice locks the dollar amount at the moment it is created and is valid for 30 minutes. If it expires, just tap “get a new invoice”.
Is Bitcoin Jungle safe?+
It is built on the same open-source software as El Salvador’s Bitcoin Beach wallet (Galoy/Blink) and has been used by hundreds of Costa Rican businesses since 2021. Keep your backup phrase private and you are in control of your funds.
Can I pay with another wallet?+
Yes — any Lightning wallet works (Blink, Wallet of Satoshi, Phoenix, Muun, Strike, Cash App…). We recommend Bitcoin Jungle because it also lets you buy sats with SINPE Móvil inside Costa Rica.
I paid but forgot the proof+
No problem. Email us your booking code and the time you paid, and we will confirm it manually from our wallet.
Prefer SINPE Móvil?
Costa Rican bank customers can pay by SINPE at checkout too — just choose it when you book.
