How do you pay in a shop with MobilePay?

Tap, MobilePay number and QR code.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

With Tap with MobilePay you hold your phone close to the card terminal, and after a moment you get a green screen with an approval. As of November 2026 it needs an iPhone with iOS 17.4 or later or an Android phone with Android 7 or later, you must be over 13, and both your card and your bank must support it. You activate it with "Aktiver nu" at the top of the app; on iPhone you double-press the side button to pay. Some shops and stalls instead show a MobilePay number or QR code that you pay in the app.
