Description​

Official Vipps Checkout for Shopify. More than 4.3 million Norwegians use Vipps. Give them a fast and familiar shopping experience.

This is the official Vipps plugin that provides a direct integration with Shopify. Now you can let your customers choose Vipps directly in the checkout.

You can also do important back office tasks such as capture and refund directly from Shopify. Easy for your customer and easy for you.

Vipps vs Vipps Checkout? What's the difference?​

For the moment, there are two payment methods offered from Vipps available in Shopify, Vipps (called Vipps 2.0) and Vipps Checkout. Vipps Checkout is the latest one. Vipps 2.0 will be depreciated and replaced completely by Vipps Checkout in the future, so we suggest installing Vipps Checkout right away.

Vipps Payment​

When you enable this plugin, your customers will be able to choose Vipps as a payment method directly in the checkout. There is no need to go via a third party payment method. If your customer chooses Vipps, the customer fills in the contact information and is then asked to enter the phone number in the Vipps dialogue. Then the customer confirms the payment in the Vipps app. The order is now completed and are now stored in your Shopify store.

Please note: Vipps does not have a solution for Vipps Hurtigkasse ("Express Checkout") in Shopify. This is due to limitations on Shopify's side, and if Shopify makes changes that make Vipps Hurtigkasse possible, we will add this functionality.

How to get started​

  • Sign up to use Vipps på Nett on portal.vipps.no.
  • After 1-2 days, you will get an email with login details to Vipps Developer Portal, where you can get the API credentials
  • Download and configure
