Shopify Payments Luxembourg: Accept EUR and Scale Across the EU

Streamlined Payments for a High-Spending Market

Shopify Payments is now live in Luxembourg, enabling merchants to offer a frictionless, secure, and cost-effective checkout experience directly within the Shopify platform. With support for Euro (EUR) payments, advanced wallet options, and full compliance with EU regulations, businesses in Luxembourg can now operate at global standards — with local efficiency.

Power Commerce provides expert setup and strategic support for merchants in Luxembourg, helping them unlock the full potential of Shopify Payments.

Ecommerce in Luxembourg: Compact but High Value

Luxembourg may be small in population, but its ecommerce potential is significant. High-income consumers, multilingual buyers, and widespread internet access make it a uniquely valuable market for Shopify merchants.

  • Among the highest ecommerce spend per capita in Europe
  • Over 93% internet penetration
  • Consumers fluent in French, German, and English
  • Cross-border shopping is common (Belgium, Germany, France)
  • Eurozone country with advanced banking infrastructure

Benefits of Shopify Payments for Luxembourg Merchants

Accept Payments in EUR

Charge customers and receive payouts in Euros, directly to your Luxembourg-based bank account.

Remove Third-Party Fees

Using Shopify Payments eliminates Shopify’s 1–2% platform fee for external gateways, such as Stripe or Mollie.

Enable Shop Pay and Wallets

Activate Shop Pay, Apple Pay, and Google Pay — giving your customers a faster, mobile-optimized checkout experience proven to increase conversions.

Centralized Admin and Reporting

All payment actions — disputes, refunds, payouts — are managed within your Shopify admin. No more logging into external platforms.

Compliant by Default

Shopify Payments includes built-in support for PCI compliance, 3D Secure, and Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) — aligned with EU regulations.

What Luxembourg Merchants Used Before Shopify Payments

Before this launch, merchants in Luxembourg relied on:

  • Stripe or Adyen — external gateways requiring separate dashboards and subject to Shopify’s surcharge
  • PayPal — effective but often less trusted for local purchases
  • Bank transfers — for higher-ticket items or B2B transactions
  • Third-party plugins — for Klarna or SEPA direct debit support

These tools worked, but they created friction. Shopify Payments now provides a single solution that’s faster, cheaper, and more customer-friendly.

How to Enable Shopify Payments in Luxembourg

  1. Go to Settings > Payments in your Shopify dashboard
  2. Select Activate Shopify Payments
  3. Submit required KYC details and business verification
  4. Connect your Luxembourg-based EUR bank account
  5. Enable desired payment methods (cards, Shop Pay, Apple Pay, etc.)
  6. Save and start accepting payments immediately

Payouts are issued in EUR, usually within 3 business days of transaction processing.
