If you have an online store in Spain and do not offer Bizum for Shopify, you are leaving money on the table. With more than 24 million active users, this payment method has become a must-have standard for any ecommerce business that wants to reduce abandoned carts.
In this article, we explain why it is essential to offer it and how to install it step by step using the best payment gateways on the market.
Why do you need to integrate Bizum into Shopify now?
The equation is simple: the easier it is to pay, the higher the conversion. Shopify Bizum is not just a trend; it is a market necessity. Spanish users want immediacy; they do not want to take their card out of their wallet, enter 16 digits and wait for an SMS. They want to enter their mobile number, approve the payment in their banking app and be done.
The statistics gathered from industry experts are clear:
- Higher conversion: Stores that activate Bizum report a 10% to 15% increase in sales.
- Fewer abandoned carts: By simplifying the checkout, abandonment can be reduced by up to 20%.
- Total security: As an immediate bank transfer validated by the bank’s app (in compliance with PSD2), it eliminates the risk of fraudulent chargebacks.
MONEI Bizum for Shopify: the recommended solution
Although Shopify Payments is powerful, it does not offer a direct native Bizum integration out of the box in every configuration. This is where Monei Bizum for Shopify comes in.
MONEI has established itself as the leading technology partner for connecting Shopify Bizum smoothly. Unlike the old, slow redirects used by traditional bank payment gateways (Redsys), MONEI offers an optimised user experience that preserves your store’s design and speeds up the process.
Step by step: how to install Bizum for Shopify
To get Bizum for Shopify working, follow these simple steps. The most effective route currently is through the MONEI payment gateway.
1. Registration and configuration
The first step is to create a MONEI account. Once your account has been verified (a process that is usually quick), request the activation of Bizum as a payment method from your control panel.
2. Install the Shopify plugin
- Go to your Shopify administration panel.
- Search for the “MONEI Payments” app or use the manual API integration if you are an advanced user.
- Install the free app.
3. API connection
In your MONEI panel, find your API keys (Live and Test). Copy these keys and paste them into the payment gateway settings in your Shopify store. This will link Shopify Bizum to your bank account.
4. Testing (sandbox)
Before launching, it is essential to run a test. Activate test mode and simulate a purchase by selecting Bizum. If the flow is correct, you will see the payment request in the secure environment.
5. Start selling!
Disable test mode. Now, when your customers reach the checkout, they will see the Bizum logo alongside credit cards and PayPal.

Costs
MONEI is the most robust option (“Monei + Bizum” is currently the gold standard). These are the costs you need to consider:
- Costs: Shopify does not charge extra for adding the method, but you should consider the gateway fees (MONEI, for example, has competitive rates that are usually around 1% plus a fixed fee, although this varies by volume) and your own bank’s fees if you use a direct virtual POS.
- Refunds: Yes, you can issue full or partial refunds directly from the management panel, and the money returns to the customer’s Bizum account.
