### 2/5 — Like it’s 1989

*2025-06-13*

Trying to setup access, it requires that you log in with BankId. Then again, when adding a card. If adding a card fails, it makes you start all over again. Horrible user experience.

### 1/5 — Poulet

Cacahouète

### 1/5 — Добавьте в россию пожалуйста это приложение

*2025-01-03, version 7.51.1*

?

### 1/5 — Nur für Norweger

*2024-08-02*

Leider nicht für Touristen, da eine norwegische ID notwendig ist.

### 1/5 — Unusable for visitors

*2024-07-02*

Visiting from the US this app is useless.

### 1/5 — Vipps to use for foreigners

*2024-06-28*

Visa card advertises on their own german internet domain that Vipps and Visa started a cooperation on 3rd of september 2020. 

Now I‘ m in Norway and have to pay the harbour fee for my sailing yacht. 

Calling to Visa in Germany: what is Vipps?

At Vipps app no contact is possible to ask how to log in. 

Fantastic result. We are getting stormy weather now and I have to leave the harbour?

Back to the „stone age“, back to the roots:

Where do I get cash here? 

Digital live could be so easy…

### 1/5 — Reklame nå...

*2024-06-26*

Da dukket reklamen opp og valget for å reservere seg mot det er blitt borte. Da er det vel på tide å slette kontoen og appen. Sånn blir det når det er monopol.

### 4/5 — Vipps

*2024-05-10*

Det er ikke muligheten til å sende prisen med komma (,)! Må forandre det!

### 5/5 — Easy and fast

*2024-04-15*

Any payment is easy, fast and reliable. No card and money with you 😊

### 4/5 — Money

*2023-12-16*

### 1/5 — Ridiculous

*2026-08-04, version 10.31.0*

So turning up at Steinvikholm castle, QR codes everywhere asking to pay 30NOK for day parking using this app. I used what little data I had downloading this app which was 158mb, just so I could go on the downloaded app and find out I need a Norwegian identity number. How absolutely ridiculous, waste of time, it’s almost like they don’t expect tourists in a country full of tourists. The Norwegian only exclusivity club is getting kind of boring, it borders on discrimination.

### 1/5 — Unable to add cards

*2026-07-21*

Tried adding my Handelsbanken card, my Wise card and a Visa - all different banks and all rejected saying to contact my bank.

### 1/5 — Nur für Norweger, Schweden nicht für Touristen

*2026-07-14*

Wir sind länger in Skandinavien unterwegs und uns begegnet immer wieder diese App um zu bezahlen. Leider kann man sie als Tourist nicht nutzen, weil man sich per ID registrieren muss. Sehr schade

### 1/5 — Norway Mauntains

*2026-06-06*

At many places in Norway  you reach mauntains only by paying the street - last 5 km - vipps app for paying is for foreigners not possible - maybe the don‘t like tourists.

### 1/5 — Crashes when trying to set up

*2026-01-18, version 10.2.1*

Crashes when linking bankID or when asked to accept notifications

### 1/5 — Vips ID

*2025-10-13*

“Confirm your identity”
Jeg må identifisere meg med BankID hver gang j ska bruke Vips. Det skal vel ikke være sånn?

### 1/5 — disappointed

*2025-09-18*

We visited a church. The only way to make a gift was vips. unfortunately for norwegian and swedish people only. No recommendation for that use.

### 1/5 — Identitätsprüfung erfordert norwegische ID

*2025-08-01*

Wie kann man solche Zahldienste für touristische Zwecke anbieten? Insbesondere bei Orten mit überregionalen Besuchern - und das auch nicht in kleinen Mengen. Warum genügt zur Registrierung nicht ein Bankkonto? Bei Paypal geht das ja auch!

### 1/5 — ???

*2025-07-16*

i have to delete and re-download the app constantly, it keeps crashing as soon as I log in

### 1/5 — .

*2025-06-07, version 8.22.1*
