How eCom works online
Applicable to Vipps. All new integrations use the
ePayment API.
This is how payment with the eCom API works.
1. Pay with Vipps​
The user chooses Pay with Vipps, either in the checkout, or on the product page (express checkout) of a merchant's website or app.
2. The landing page (If customer started on desktop)​
If the payment was started on a desktop device the user will be sent to the landing page. The user confirms their number, and is prompted to log in to Vipps.
If the payment was started from a mobile device, the app will automatically switch over to Vipps.
3. Confirm payment in Vipps​
The user receives a push notification on their phone. They log in to Vipps and confirm the payment. The payment is reserved, and the user gets a confirmation of the successful payment.
For Express checkout (Vipps Hurtigkasse), the user must give access and then choose a shipping method.
4. Order Confirmation​
The user is redirected back to the merchant’s store, and the order is confirmed.
5. Completing the order and shipping​
The merchant completes the order, and ships the order to the customer.
6. Money in the bank​
The payment is transferred to the merchant’s account. This may take 2-3 days depending on your bank.
Great! Now you know how the payment process works.
