Technical update 2021-06
This update was sent in June 2021.
Recognize your loyal customers
With Vipps you can always know who your customers are, and optionally connect them to your loyalty program:
- Vipps Log in: The easiest way to register and/or log in. No usernames or passwords!
- Userinfo: Ask the user to share details, such as: phone number, name, email address, postal address, birthdate, national identity number and bank accounts.
You can then automatically give your loyal customers benefits such as discounts, freebies, connect them to your own loyalty program. More information:
- Vipps Logg inn: Product information
- Login API
- Userinfo for the eCom API
- Userinfo for the Recurring API
Please note: When a user pays with a debit or credit card using Vipps, all the benefits apply, just as when the payment card is used outside Vipps.
API Dashboard for Login API
UPDATE from 12 Jan 2024: The API Dashboard is deprecated.
The API Dashboard now also shows data for the Login API. See it on portal.vipps.no in the Utvikler section. Here's an example:
Reminders
We have mentioned some things before, and take this opportunity to remind you:
Manage "everything" on portal.vippsmobilepay.com
All customers can now log in on portal.vipps.no and order new products, which automatically creates a new sales unit:
- Vipps på Nett (eCom API, for both webshops and apps)
- Vipps rett i Kassa (eCom API)
- Vipps Faste betalinger (Recurring API)
- Vipps Logg inn (Login API)
You can create also new sales units in the
test environment
on
portal.vipps.no:
On the page with the API keys for the test environment there is a button
for creating additional sales units, and you can then select
"direct capture" or "reserve capture", and also skipLandingPage.
This is available for all customers, also those that do not yet have any API access.
