Learn how to accept the MB WAY payment method.

Copy page

MB WAY is a digital wallet payment method in Portugal. When paying with MB WAY, customers initiate payments using their phone number, and authenticate and approve them using their MB WAY app.

You get immediate notification of whether the payment succeeded or failed.

Note

MB WAY supports international phone numbers, but the majority of customers use a Portuguese phone number starting with +351. You can test your integration in a sandbox using test phone numbers.

Caution

Stripe automatically presents your customers payment method options by evaluating their currency, payment method restrictions, and other parameters. We recommend that you configure your payment methods from the Stripe Dashboard using the instructions in Accept a payment.

If you want to continue manually configuring the payment methods you present to your customers with Checkout, use this guide. Otherwise, update your integration to configure payment methods in the Dashboard.
