iDEAL & Bancontact Checkout for Shopify

Key Features

iDEAL bank-redirect checkout for Netherlands shoppers, with the bank-selection step rendered natively in the Shopify checkout flow

Bancontact support for Belgian shoppers, including the mobile app and card-based confirmation paths the method requires

Routed through a certified PSP — Mollie or Adyen — that holds the iDEAL/Bancontact scheme certifications so you don't have to

Real-time payment confirmation via PSP webhooks, so an order is only marked paid after the bank confirms — no optimistic 'paid' states

EUR settlement to your connected PSP account, matching how iDEAL and Bancontact actually clear

Localized NL/BE checkout presentation so the methods appear with correct naming and ordering for each market

Order tagging and transaction-reference capture via the Shopify Admin GraphQL API and order metafields for clean reconciliation

Idempotent webhook handling so retried PSP notifications never double-mark or duplicate an order

Sandbox/test-mode validation of the full pay-redirect-confirm lifecycle before go-live

Refund and failed-payment status mapping back into Shopify order timelines

Secure OAuth-based connection between Shopify and the integration — no API keys pasted into theme files

Documented runbook covering PSP credentials, webhook endpoints, and what to check if a payment stalls

About this Product

Selling into the Netherlands without iDEAL — or into Belgium without Bancontact — leaves real revenue on the table. These are the dominant bank-redirect methods in each market, and shoppers routinely abandon carts when they aren't offered. This is a build-to-order integration: ECOSIRE configures, installs, tests and supports it on your store. It is not an instant Shopify App Store download — we build it for your specific setup and hand you a working checkout with a defined lead time.

Under the hood, we connect your store to a licensed PSP — Mollie or Adyen — that is certified for iDEAL and Bancontact, then wire it into Shopify so the bank-redirect flow appears natively at checkout. Customers pick their bank, complete the redirect, and you receive real-time confirmation via PSP webhooks before the order is marked paid, eliminating the "did it go through?" guesswork. Settlement is in EUR to your connected account.

We localize the experience for NL/BE shoppers, validate the order-paid lifecycle, and reconcile transaction references so your finance team can match payouts to Shopify orders. Where your plan allows, we use Shopify's supported payment surfaces and the Admin GraphQL API plus order metafields to tag and trace each transaction.

You own the PSP account and its rates; ECOSIRE owns the integration, testing, and ongoing support. The result is a checkout that speaks the local payment language of two of Europe's highest-conversion markets — built once, supported continuously, with no plugin-roulette and no half-finished DIY code to maintain.

Who this is for

Dutch & Belgian D2C store owner

Runs a Shopify store shipping into NL and BE and is losing checkouts because shoppers expect iDEAL or Bancontact and don't see it. Wants the local methods live without becoming a payments expert.

Cross-border merchant expanding into the EU

An existing store entering the Dutch and Belgian markets who needs locally trusted payment methods configured correctly the first time, with EUR settlement and clean reconciliation, rather than a trial-and-error plugin hunt.

Operations / finance lead

Owns payout reconciliation and order accuracy. Needs every iDEAL/Bancontact transaction reliably confirmed via webhooks and traceable back to a Shopify order, with idempotent handling so retries never corrupt the books.

Frequently Asked Questions about iDEAL & Bancontact Checkout for Shopify

How long does delivery take, since this is build-to-order?

This is custom-built and installed for your store, not an instant download. Typical delivery is about 5 to 10 business days from when you provide PSP access and store collaborator access. The main variable is your PSP account: if your Mollie or Adyen account is already approved with iDEAL and Bancontact enabled, we move faster; if the account still needs onboarding or verification, that PSP-side review can add time outside our control. We confirm a firm timeline after a short scoping call.

What ongoing support and updates are included?

Every build includes a defined post-launch support window for fixes, questions, and adjustments. Because the integration depends on Shopify's APIs and your PSP's webhooks, we also handle breakage caused by Shopify Admin API or Mollie/Adyen platform changes during that window. After it ends, you can keep us on a support arrangement for continued monitoring and updates, or run it independently using the runbook we hand over.

Do I need a Mollie or Adyen account, and who pays the transaction fees?

Yes — iDEAL and Bancontact are processed through a certified PSP, and you own that account directly. This means the per-transaction rates and any PSP fees are between you and Mollie or Adyen; ECOSIRE does not mark up or take a cut of your processing. We help you choose between the two based on your volume and region and configure whichever you select.

Will customers be confident the payment actually went through?

Yes. We rely on PSP webhooks for real-time confirmation, so a Shopify order is only marked paid after the customer's bank confirms the iDEAL or Bancontact transaction. We never optimistically mark orders paid on redirect alone, and webhook handling is idempotent so PSP retries can't double-process or duplicate an order.

Can this coexist with my existing payment methods like cards or PayPal?

Yes. iDEAL and Bancontact are added as additional methods alongside whatever you already run. Shoppers in the Netherlands and Belgium see the local options they expect, while your existing card, PayPal, or other methods remain available for everyone else. We localize the presentation so the right methods surface for NL and BE checkouts.
