Has anyone had any luck with this?
Topic summary
Malaysian Shopify merchants seek to integrate FPX (direct bank transfer) payment through Stripe, but face a technical barrier: Shopify’s native Stripe integration only supports credit/debit cards, not FPX.
The Core Problem:
- FPX integration requires custom server-side and client-side development
- Non-technical merchants cannot implement this themselves
- Both Stripe and Shopify redirect responsibility to each other when contacted
Workarounds Adopted:
- Using Billplz as a secondary payment provider specifically for FPX (prepaid, requires top-up)
- Running dual payment systems: Stripe for cards + Billplz for FPX
- Users report this dual setup works smoothly with no major technical issues
Current Status (as of 2022):
- No native Shopify solution exists
- Community members recommend emailing Shopify support to demonstrate demand
- A potential third-party solution emerged in late posts via video tutorials and LinkedIn article for Stripe FPX/GrabPay integration
Key Recommendation: Merchants either hire Shopify developers for custom integration or use Billplz alongside Stripe as an interim solution.
