Vipps PSP Signup API quick start

Vipps Applicable to Vipps.

Before you begin​

The provided example values in this guide must be changed with the values for your sales unit and user. This applies for API keys, HTTP headers, reference, phone number, etc.

Sign up your first merchant​

Step 1 - Setup​

You must have already signed up as a Payment Service Provider with Vipps MobilePay. You will receive an email with your test credentials from our partner team.

Get these API key values for your sales unit:

  • client_id - Merchant key is required for getting the access token.
  • client_secret - Merchant key is required for getting the access token.
  • Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key-PSP - PSP subscription key is required for all requests.

You will also need:

  • PSP-ID - PSP ID provided by Vipps, needed for Initiate a PSP Payment, Update Status, and Get Details.
  • mobileNumber - Test mobile number, needed only for Initiate a PSP Payment.
  • makePaymentUrl - PSP provided URL used by Vipps to send the card data, needed only for Initiate a PSP Payment.
  • pspRedirectUrl - Redirect URL which the user is redirected to after approving/rejecting the payment.

Step 2 - Get an access token​

For all the following, you will need an access_token from: POST:/accesstoken/get. This provides you with access to the API.

curl -X POST 'https://apitest.vipps.no/accesstoken/get' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H 'client_id: YOUR-CLIENT-ID' \
-H 'client_secret: YOUR-CLIENT-SECRET' \
-H 'Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: YOUR-SUBSCRIPTION-KEY' \
-H 'Merchant-Serial-Number: YOUR-MSN' \
--data ''

For production, include all the Vipps-System headers so that we can help with debugging any problems. For details, see HTTP headers.

The property access_token should be used as the Bearer token in the Authorization header of all the following API requests.

Step 3 - Get a listing of all merchants associated with you as PSP​

Send GET:/merchant-management/psp/v1/merchants for a JSON response showing all the merchants and their information.

curl -X GET https://apitest.vipps.no/merchant-management/psp/v1/merchants \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

-H "Vipps-System-Version: 3.1.2" \
-H "Vipps-System-Plugin-Name: acme-webshop" \
-H "Vipps-System-Plugin-Version: 4.5.6" \

Step 4 - Get merchant details by MSN​

Use GET:/merchant-management/psp/v1/merchants/{merchantSerialNumber} for information about a specific merchant. Supply the MSN.
