Hi good day, I’m currently living in the Cayman Islands and I need more information on setting up Shopify payments for my store?

@TheWigLoft ,
Hi, good day! Shopify Payments is currently not available in the Cayman Islands. You can use third-party payment gateways like PayPal or Stripe (if supported locally). Check Shopify’s Payment Providers page for region-specific options. Let me know if you need assistance setting it up!

You can also hire me for direct configuration.

Hi Thank you so much for your response. I’ve tried connecting a third party
provider. But I’m still not sure as to how to proceed.

Hello, just checking if this is still the case? I have confirmed the our local bank does integrate with Shopify for online transactions, but they are unsure it will work with in person POs transaction via the Shopify POs card reader terminals.

Can you confirm if it will work?
