High risk payment gateway?

English Shopify Payments + Shipping & Fulfilment
1

Hi there,

I currently run a store selling a nicotine product that requires a high risk payment gateway. I’ve been using viva wallet for some time and they have been fine, however I ideally want to use a different high risk payement gateway so that I can: set up monthly subscriptions for my customers, and have the checkout on the same shopify page (viva payments gateway requires the customer to fill out their payment details in a new tab, which possibly slightly lowers my conversion rate)

Was wondering if anyone has any good recommendations for one to use as lots of alternative options I have researched appear to not be great. My business is UK based, but I sell to Europe too.

Any info will be greatly appreciated!!

Many thanks :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey,

I totally get where you’re coming from — dealing with high-risk products and trying to find a smooth checkout experience can be tricky. If you’re looking for an alternative, you might want to check out WallidPay. They work with high-risk businesses (like vape and nicotine products) and support direct on-site checkout, so customers don’t get redirected to a new tab like with Viva.

It’s UK-friendly and supports payments across Europe as well. I’ve found the setup pretty straightforward, and having everything on the same page does seem to help with conversions.

Here’s the link if you want to have a look: https://apps.shopify.com/wallidpay

Hope that helps!
