Product orders

Functionality for managing product orders. Merchants can do this on portal.vippsmobilepay.com.

Prefill a product order on behalf of a merchant

Submit data that prefills the order form on https://portal.vippsmobilepay.com, so the merchant can review the information and submit the product order.

Please note that complianceData and website are required for the PAYMENT_INTEGRATION product type. Partners can still submit the product orders without it, but the merchant will have to fill in compliance data and website information manually in the merchant portal product order form and submit, and this is a common source of problems.

We have made as many of the fields as possible optional, but please try to send as much as you can, to make it easy for the merchant and make the processing as fast as possible.

IMPORTANT: Please provide all the necessary details, so it will not be necessary for us to request more details. This is the most common reason for delays. See: Typical reasons for delays.
