In a significant move for digital payments in Finland, Tink's Pay by Bank solution has been integrated into Vipps MobilePay. This partnership, now live, allows Finnish MobilePay customers to add and use their Finnish bank accounts in MobilePay through Tink's solution.

Vipps MobilePay, the leading mobile wallet in the Nordics with over 12 million users across Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Denmark, is partnering with Tink, A Visa Solution, to power peer-to-peer (P2P) payments in Finland.

The partnership between Vipps MobilePay and Tink will enable Finnish MobilePay customers to use their bank accounts for P2P payments and e-commerce transactions. Tink's Pay by Bank will be one of the three payment methods in Vipps MobilePay's e-commerce checkout in Finland, expanding the payment methods available in the platform.
