Tæppe-payments let you pay with your debit/credit card or mobile phone without having to insert your card or enter your PIN. You've probably already seen it in action: Someone holding their debit/credit card or mobile phone up to a card terminal.

Now that you can use tæppe with Vipps, it means you can pay with Vipps at a card terminal in Norway – without even having to open the Vipps app.

Yes, it works at almost every shop in Norway. The card terminal must accept BankAxept cards, which most of them do in Norway.

Make tæppe-payments with Vipps at the supermarket, in the shoe shop, at the train station, in the pet shop, at the auto repair shop and so on.

It doesn’t work at the following:
Shops with terminals that only accept Visa (Strawberry hotels, on flights and typically small businesses that use iZettle card terminals, such as nail salons)

Psst! In plenty of time for the 2025 summer holidays, you can also make tæppe- payments with Vipps via Visa and MasterCard, which means you can use Vipps all around the world.
