payabl. launches payments integration for Shopify merchants
European financial technology provider payabl. has launched a new payments integration with leading e-commerce platform Shopify, enabling merchants to offer faster, secure, and convenient payments at checkout.
The new payabl. payment extension allows Shopify merchants to streamline their payment experience with popular payment methods, fast onboarding, and built-in fraud protection, all supported by payabl.’s secure infrastructure.
Breno Oliveira, head of product at payabl., said: “With the payabl. payment extension, we’re meeting merchants where they are, directly within the Shopify ecosystem. Our goal is to make it easier for them to accept secure payments, expand internationally, and maintain control through the same infrastructure they already trust.”
Merchants can go live in as little as 48 hours, supported by payabl.’s dedicated onboarding and optimisation team. The integration currently supports major payment methods, including credit and debit cards, with additional payment methods, such as PayPal and Wero, being introduced soon, expanding merchants’ reach further.
Beyond online payments, the integration includes key operational features such as refunds, 3D Secure, AI-enabled fraud protection tools, and chargeback management, allowing merchants to manage transactions and resolve issues efficiently within one platform.
The payabl. payment extension is built to support small and mid-sized merchants on Shopify, as well as developers and agencies seeking fast integration, reliable performance, and responsive technical support.
European ecommerce momentum
The announcement comes amid continued growth in European e-commerce, with 77% of EU internet users buying goods or services online in the past year, according to Eurostat. However, payabl.’s recent State of European Checkout Report revealed that 43% of consumers wouldn’t return to a retailer after a poor checkout experience.
Speed at the checkout is now also critical, with nearly a third (30%) of shoppers willing to switch to new payment methods if they offered a faster checkout process – underlining how the online checkout experience has become a valuable tool to improve customer satisfaction.
With the B2C e-commerce turnover estimated at €958bn in 2024, according to Ecommerce Europe’s 2024 report, it is in every merchant’s interest to deliver a secure and efficient checkout experience that encourages conversion and repeat business.
“E-commerce in Europe continues to advance and grow as its diverse payment landscape shifts the focus to more consolidated payment methods to unlock Europe’s true digital potential,” added Breno Oliveira. “This growth brings opportunity, but also higher expectations. Consumers now prioritise speed and reliability at checkout, and merchants that invest in these areas will be the ones who earn loyalty and drive repeat business. Our research shows that payments are no longer just a back-end process; they’re central to customer experience and long-term growth.”
