Payment method in Paraguay like AquiPago or Tigo

Payments + Shipping & Fulfilment

Topic summary

A user in Paraguay seeks to integrate AquiPago (a local payment provider) with their Shopify store.

Initial Response:

  • AquiPago is not currently listed as an available payment option for Paraguay in Shopify’s official gateway list
  • Suggestion made to contact AquiPago directly about potential external integration methods

Follow-up Questions:

  • User notes that dLocal (listed for Paraguay) supports “Pagos en Efectivo” (cash payments) and questions whether this includes AquiPago
  • References that many Paraguayan merchants successfully use Shopify, suggesting integration solutions must exist

Potential Solution:

  • A third-party developer offers to create a private/custom integration for either AquiPago or Tigo payment gateways
  • This would function like standard Shopify payment gateways once completed
  • Requires API documentation from the chosen payment provider

Status: The original poster shared contact information to pursue the custom integration option. Another user later inquired about selling from Paraguay to the US market, indicating ongoing interest in Paraguay payment solutions.

Key requirement: API documentation from AquiPago or Tigo needed to proceed with custom integration.

Hi, @SeanKong !

I’m afraid it doesn’t look like AquiPago is currently a payment option for Paraguay - you can view all of the available options here. That said, I’d suggest reaching out to AquiPago directly to see if they have an external method of integrating with us.

Hi, thank you for your answer
when I see the link you sent for availability payment option in Paraguay,
there is “By dLocal: Tarjetas locales, Transferencias Bancarias y Pagos en
Efectivo” Which saying it can support an effective Pagos. in that effective
Pagos don’t include AquiPago? I read a news many paraguayo is currently
using your shopify for eCommerce which means there is definitely way to
support it!!!
Thank you!
