Swish
Making everyday payments easier
The Swedish mobile payment app Swish is very commonly used among the Swedish consumers regarding online payments.
Swish is gradually replacing cash transactions in Sweden, according to Riksbanken. Though it is uncommon yet to offer Swish payments in physical shops, when it comes to online payments the Swedes generally prefer to pay with Swish. It might be quite a good idea to offer your Swedish customers Swish payments as a complement to card payments.
There are several reasons to offer Swish as a payment method to your Nordic customers:
- Over 8 million users – more than 75% of the Swedish population
- Used by +300 000 shops online and in-store
- High average use – in January 2023 alone more than 72 million transactions were made
