Accepting credit cards, warehouses, and shipping and fulfilling orders
If I search for supported countries using shopify payments I get this text and a list of 23 countries: "Shopify Payments is available only to stores in certain countries". I can interpret this two ways, either it means I can only use shopify payments if my business is located in one of these 23 countries OR I can only accept payments from customers situated in one of the 23 countries.
The confusion grows when I search how I accept payments in Greece for example, where Shopify lists Stripe as the preferred partner. If I go to add Stripe to my store, I am not able to since shopify payments is available to me.
TL:DR; With my business located in Sweden, can I accept payments from customers in Greece using shopify payments? If not, how can I add stripe to accept payments in Greece?

Hey, @Berkzon!
Happy to clear this up for you.
Shopify Payments can be used by merchants located in any of the 23 countries listed
on this page here. So, as a merchant located in Sweden, you can use Shopify Payments to accept payments from customers in Greece or any other country. You can check out Shopify Payments for Sweden by clicking here.
However, when it comes to Greece specifically, Shopify Payments is not currently available in that region. That's why when you look at that page, you see the options for third party providers like Stripe.
I hope this clears up any confusion. If you have any further questions or need more information, please let me know. By the way, are you just starting out and is this your first store? I'd love to hear more about your business and goals!

Thanks for you quick and kind reply Maz!
That's exactly what I was hoping for 😍 This is the first shop I am building using shopify (been trying woocommerce and jetshop earlier). I will be using a print-on-demand company that can ship pretty much globally and wanted to make sure we had payment methods to cover it, and based on your reply I think shopify payments will be perfect
