# How to add my lightning address to Nostr

You can now use your Alby lightning address to receive zaps on Nostr.

{% hint style="info" %}
Nostr users can send bitcoin payments to each other using the bitcoin lightning network.
{% endhint %}

Many Nostr apps allow to edit your profile.\
After you logged into a Nostr app ([2-minute guide](https://blog.getalby.com/the-2-minute-alby-guide-to-nostr/)), you can add your lightning address to one of these sites:

* <https://iris.to/profile/edit>
* <https://snort.social/settings/profile>
* <https://coracle.social/profile>
* [Damus](https://damus.io/) or [Amethyst](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vitorpamplona.amethyst\&hl=en\&gl=US) on mobile

You only have to add your lightning address once and every other app knows about it.\
\
**Congrats! You are now able to receive zaps. 👍**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guides.getalby.com/user-guide/alby-account/faq/how-to-add-my-lightning-address-to-nostr.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
