The native integration of Bizum as a payment method for Shopify stores in Spain was long overdue—until now.
Although activation is being rolled out gradually and some stores may not have it available yet, this payment method represents a major improvement in both internal management and user experience.
What benefits does Bizum offer Shopify online stores?
- Unified payment management, allowing you to manage card payments and Bizum payments, as well as refunds, orders, etc., from a single environment.
- Orders paid for via Bizum through Shopify Payments do not incur third-party transaction fees, which do apply to external payment gateways.
- Because it is a payment method that customers are very familiar with, this option builds a closer connection with the brand and improves the user experience.
How can you tell if Bizum is enabled on your eCommerce site?
As we have mentioned before, activation is being rolled out gradually. To find out if Bizum is already available as a payment method on your online store, simply follow these steps:
- Go to Settings – Payments
- Review the Shopify Payments payment methods.
- If Bizum appears as an option, simply enable it (remember that you will need the company's tax ID).
With this new feature, Shopify combines a payment method that users are very familiar with with the operational simplicity of Shopify Payments, resulting in a faster checkout and a better user experience.
