New partnership with Shopify: Unzer integrated as a buy-now-pay-later specialist
Payment service provider Unzer's products are now available on the Shopify platform. Merchants benefit from a seamless integration of the most popular payment methods.
Berlin, 31.03.2025 - Anyone setting up an online store wants to sell, not struggle with complicated payment systems. This is precisely where the new integration of the payment company Unzer and the global e-commerce platform Shopify comes in. Together, Unzer and Germany's most widely used e-commerce platform have developed a plugin that enables Shopify users to process payments instantly and seamlessly – directly in their familiar system.
Maximum payment flexibility for customers
The Unzer plugin allows Shopify users to seamlessly accept payments without overcoming additional technical hurdles. In addition to all Buy-Now-Pay-Later payment methods, such as purchasing on account or paying in installments, customers can pay via card payment, direct bank transfer, or local standard payment methods such as EPS or iDEAL.
The plugin is an in-house development by Unzer and is continuously being enhanced to meet the latest requirements.
Security and control in one place
In addition to payment processing, the plugin offers a central dashboard where users can manage customer data and orders – all in line with Shopify's features. Transactions are optimally protected thanks to an innovative, AI-supported risk management system, PCI compliance, and 3-D Secure Payments.
Christoph Heinzle, Managing Director at Unzer, adds: "Shopify has grown massively in importance in recent years and is now the market leader in German-speaking countries. By integrating with Shopify, we enable merchants to obtain all payment services from a single source and, in particular, to provide larger medium-sized companies with the local support and expertise that is so important to them from our teams in Germany and Austria."
Global platform meets DACH experts
Shopify helps companies create and manage their online shops. Users can customize the platform by integrating various apps and sales tools. This allows them to incorporate service providers such as Unzer for payments and make their processes more efficient.
Unzer aims to make selling easy for merchants—online, in-store, and on mobile. All sales channels converge on one platform, which allows data to be linked and used in real time. The result is a seamless shopping experience for the customer.
Dennis Kasten, VP Partnerships at Unzer, says: "Unzer places a strong focus on partnerships to continuously expand its payment network and provide innovative payment solutions together. As a Shopify payment partner, this integration is a further step towards simplified payment processing for merchants and their customers on one of the leading e-commerce platforms."
