I have a question for the developers

Topic summary

  • Main issue: A merchant based in Kyrgyzstan asks developers to enable integration of FreedomPay.kg as a payment gateway in Shopify. They want to sell products but cannot connect existing payment systems or their bank, which blocks accepting payments.

  • Context: The lack of compatible payment options in their region is complicating store setup and operations. They specifically cite FreedomPay.kg as a potential solution.

  • Request: Review and assess FreedomPay.kg for possible integration (i.e., a technical connection that would allow processing customer payments and settling funds locally). The goal is to have a region-appropriate payment method supported on the Shopify platform.

  • Status/outcome: No decision or implementation details have been provided. The request remains open, awaiting developer evaluation or guidance on feasibility and next steps.

I would like to ask if it is possible to connect https://freedompay.kg for accepting payments. I am located in Kyrgyzstan and would like to use Shopify to sell products, but I am unable to connect other payment systems as well as my bank, which complicates the process. I kindly ask you to review or check this option for possible integration."

Hey @Aitbek

There are websites that has listed multiple payment methods available for Kyrgyzstan, here’s an example of one of them

Since FreedomPay is listed on this website so most likely it is possible to connect it with Shopify.

The problem is that I want to receive payments to local banks from other countries, such as the USA, the UK, and several others. A year ago, I tried to set it up, but I couldn’t connect it in any way. I had to look for alternatives, but I didn’t find anything other than Stripe Atlas. I still haven’t started, but I’m eager to do so.

Do you have a Stripe account?

But I do not have a registered company in Europe or the USA.
