Shopify

Shopify is a leading multichannel e-commerce platform. Merchants can use Shopify to sell on the web, social media, and in person. If you own a Shopify store, you can integrate it with Viva Wallet. You will then be able to process Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, American Express, Diners (Greece only) and Viva Wallet payments.
