BTCpay, yes. Lightning Network, at the rate it's going, absolutely yes. And I recently came from a conversation that's alerted me to new developments with Eclair wallet that makes it almost easy for people to immediately start using LN. You could link to Eclair documentation to try and get users to do it.
If you really want and you don't mind that you don't have private keys, or coin control, then in addition to faucethub, you can also use Coinpot (the wallet of mega faucet moobitco.in) and MoneyPot. Both are suited for micro transactions as there are no utxos, and I believe if the 0 fees and instant even if between same wallet users.
I want to ask for the wallet that you recommend, is it a safe wallet and it won't be a crime to people who often take the contents of our wallets, I've often experienced this incident, is this a hacker?If you really want and you don't mind that you don't have private keys, or coin control, then in addition to faucethub, you can also use Coinpot (the wallet of mega faucet moobitco.in) and MoneyPot.

You're asking about Eclair wallet? I wouldn't guarantee it on safety and security, nor any wallet for that matter, but you could do a lot worse than Eclair. It's built for lightning network, and it's open source... so that means anyone can look at the code and verify. This isn't a guarantee that it's safe, but it ensures that they can't hide any malicious code, and ensured that people can find bugs and help make it better.
However safe a wallet is, however, you still have to practise good security. Losing your private key to a hacker through carelessness gives him equal access to any wallet you have.
Even the service of BTCPayServer might be free but it do not make any sense to pay .2$ as fee for $1 article.
Now selling your service by using only lightning network will significantly reduce your customer base who want to pay in crypto.
Do your business is kind of subscription or repeat business? so that you can $10 balance in one go and allow user to use that balance later on.

Looks promising. Does anyone know of a shop which uses that solution?
Thanks.
Here's one: https://bitcoinshirt.co/Thanks.
<Edit: I thought he's the OP>
@Xavier59 It's best if you can implement multiple payment methods to cover most of the market, though.
For "Seasoned" Bitcoin users (like the site above):
Regular Bitcoin payment for "slow" Large orders and transactions.
Lightning Network implemented wallets for micro-payment (BTCPayServer) But you must review for Bugs and Technical issues.
For the mainstream and most Bitcoin users:
Coinbase, most BCT users may hate the service but the mainstream think of the opposite (but vulnerable to decision manipulation).

I don't think anyone will be buying an item for 1 dollar, and then paying in BTC. The TX fees on their side would be another dollar. Have you tried looking for payment processors that offer a range of cryptocurrencies? I think DOGE, ETH and XRP would be the most popular options for users, as well as regular fiat payments.
I'm seeing most of the transactions taking place with a fee under $0.2, though it maybe 1/5th of that buck but still fees are needed to be paid and at least it cannot be considered too high unless we get those $100 fee per tx days back.
@OP,
You can try this - https://satoshipay.io
But like many here, I'd also recommend that lightning network is your best bet.
There's one simple thing I understood here that I want you to understand as well that if you're looking for such services, you won't get anything to integrate unless you agree to pay them the fees and the permission to hold your coins till a certain amount (or threshold) to save you the fees you don't want to opt for.
Satoshipay looks good. And I agree that lightning network is 100 percent you best bet here.
Try ----> coingate.com
You can accept payment by Bitcoin and altcoins with 1% processing fee and 0 EUR"EUR SEPA transfer"(withdrawals) fees or withdrawals using bitcoin. ---> https://coingate.com/pricing
Also, you can accept payments through the lightning network. ----> https://coingate.com/lightning-network
But I advise you to accept altcoins using any open source program and then exchange it into BTC.

BTCPay Server is a open-source cryptocurrency payment processor, so if you have the knowledge or if you can hire someone with programming skills, you can scrutinize their code to see if they are legit. I think being open-source already shows that they are transparent and open for Peer review. 
The payment processor approach might just be the better solution, because they do most of the dirty work for you.
Good luck with your project.

You could set up a custom deposit address per user, and then ask them to send X amount to that address. I've seen it on sites before that give you credit on the site for ETH, but I guess that's not something you'd be bothered to do?

Thank you, I will check btcpayserver
I will let you know what problems I encoutered, if I do or do not choose this solution and why.

First time I seen it, worth having a look.
Anyway, for OP (while I am ignorant about the above url) so far I think LN is a good solution.

I will also avoid Coinbase. The recent action of coinbase is very worrying. Beside, if OP wants to go through with Coinbase then he may need to compromise his privacy. 
Faucethub.io <-- this website was used by a lot of faucet owners, it supports micropayments and once you reach certain limits, then you are able to withdraw (that's how I remember but please check yourself).
Or another solution is if all of your users will use for example XAPO, when you send btc from xapo to xapo, fee is zero.

both of these are bad ideas because in both cases you have absolutely no control over your funds while you will be paying fees to them for processing your stuff.
additionally there is another risk associated with your first suggestion because services like that which are associated with faucets tend to stop being profitable for their owners and run away at some point.

Coinbase is shit. I also vote for BTCPay (own your coins, have full control over your commerce nodes, don't get blocked/kicked out, accept payments through the lightning network, and more important: doesn't support a predatory company that hates BTC).
Why not try to use Coinbase payment gateway to accept bitcoin as payment and I am sure they don't need to pay too much fee to send bitcoin if they also use Coinbase as wallet.
So you must push them to use Coinbase for fast transaction without fee.
You can check their new page from here https://commerce.coinbase.com/ Woocommerce supported.

I think for you it will be good if you implement lighting network or there is another solution too and something that you are looking for:

Hello,
I wish to accept bitcoin on my website, however, the average transaction size will be in the size of $1-$2.
I'm not sure common merchant like bitpays accept such a small amount, and if they do, they'll probably eat me alive with their fees.
So far I'm tending toward implementing the two following solutions :
- lightning network;
- normal bitcoin transaction for those who doesn't use lightning network. homemade system where i'll batch all transactions to withdraw the small amounts from all those adress and thus reduce fees.
I do not wish to accept bitcoin cash or any other cryptocurrency.
Is there any merchant (like bitpay) who could do that with tiny fees so I don't have to reinvent the wheel and code it all myself ?
Thanks
Xavier
