Shopify Payments Poland: Accept Local Payments in PLN Seamlessly
The Polish ecommerce market is booming — and now it just got easier to sell online. With the launch of Shopify Payments in Poland, merchants can finally access a seamless, locally-optimized, and fully integrated payment solution without third-party gateways or extra transaction fees.
Whether you’re launching your first Shopify store or scaling an established brand, Shopify Payments gives you the tools to grow faster — with better conversion rates, local currency support, and one-click checkouts. And Power Commerce is here to help you activate and optimize it.
Why Poland Matters in Ecommerce
- Over €21 billion ecommerce market (2023)
- Projected to exceed €33 billion by 2029

Shopify Payments removes a major barrier to entry and enables Polish merchants to compete more effectively — locally and globally.
Benefits of Shopify Payments for Polish Merchants
Local Currency Support
Accept payments in Polish złoty (PLN) and receive payouts directly to your local bank account. No forced conversions or international banking hassles.
No Additional Transaction Fees
Previously, using third-party gateways meant an extra 1–2% fee charged by Shopify. With Shopify Payments, those fees disappear — boosting your margins.
Better Checkout Experience
- Visa, Mastercard, American Express
- Apple Pay, Google Pay
- Shop Pay (1-click checkout with up to 1.72× higher conversion)
- Klarna (buy now, pay later), where supported
Unified Payments Dashboard
View all payments, refunds, disputes, and payouts directly inside Shopify admin — no extra dashboards required.
Fraud Protection & Compliance
Includes 3D Secure, PCI compliance, automated fraud analysis, and PSD2/SCA readiness.
Common Payment Alternatives in Poland (Before Shopify Payments)
Before this launch, merchants relied on:
- Przelewy24 (P24)
- PayU
- Tpay, Dotpay
- Stripe or Adyen (via custom integration)
These options required extra logins, lacked native Shopify support, and triggered Shopify’s additional fees. Shopify Payments removes that friction while still allowing access to some methods like Przelewy24 via Klarna or Stripe Connect.
Shopify Payments Activation for Polish Merchants
- Go to Settings > Payments in Shopify admin
- Select Shopify Payments
- Enter business and identity verification info
- Connect a Polish bank account (for PLN payouts)
- Enable card, wallet, and Klarna options
- Go live!
Payouts in Poland typically arrive within 3–5 business days.
