Safe, seamless, and done in a flash - just the way it should be. We’re a Nordic mobile wallet built from two strong foundations: Vipps in Norway and MobilePay in Denmark. Both started with the same idea to make sending money as easy as sending a text. Today, we’ve come together as one of the largest mobile wallets in Europe, making everyday payments easier for millions of people. We also make it easy for our merchants and partners to dream big, no matter the size of their business. To keep building the best products for everyone, we believe everyone should be part of creating them. Simple as that. That’s why we welcome people of all backgrounds, genders, gender identities, sexual orientations, ethnicities, religions, abilities, and ages.
