MobilePay migration guides
On 12 March 2024, we launched a joint platform with more than 11 million users and more than 400,000 merchants across the Nordics. There is now one app, branded locally as MobilePay in Denmark and Finland, and as Vipps in Norway and Sweden.
Are you currently using the MobilePay Facade APIs for your payment integration?
The MobilePay facade APIs are Subscriptions API or App Payments API.
If you are using the facade APIs, we’re excited to introduce you to the Vipps MobilePay API platform, a versatile payment solution that can make the migration hassle-free and even dazzle you with its ease of use and features. To ensure a smooth transition, we recommend using our migration guides, which will provide step-by-step instructions and best practices for integrating with the Vipps MobilePay APIs.
We will disable the facade in 2025, so you should migrate to the new Vipps MobilePay API platform soon. Start migrating now, so we have time and capacity to help you before the end of life of facade.
Here is the general timeline:
Now until 30 April 2025 - Priority migration support
This is the ideal period to begin integration and set up any necessary systems. Initiating the process during this phase ensures that there is ample time to address any potential issues and make adjustments as needed. During this period, Vipps MobilePay will be able to provide the following:
- Help you plan your transition from the facade solution to the ePayment or Recurring API
- Help you find a suitable go-live day
- Validate your integration both in test and production environment
- Provide support on post go-live issues
01 May 2025 - Priority migration support ends After this date, there may be many merchants and partners getting ready for transitioning, therefore we expect to have more limited capacity for support.
31 May 2025 - Latest recommended Go-live date In order to avoid problems and extra fees, and with extra time for issue handling, we recommend that you do not plan for a go-live date later than this date.
30 Jun 2025 - End of facade general availability The facade APIs are no longer generally available. Any merchant or partners wanting to continue using the Facade APIs must make an agreement with Vipps MobilePay. After this date, usage of facade APIs is subject to extra fees. Only critical bugs and issues with the facade APIs will be fixed.
