Danske Bank has decided to terminate MobilePay in Norway, and is in dialogue with Vipps about entering a distribution agreement in Norway. The intention is to settle on an agreement as soon as possible for the benefit of the Norwegian private users and business customers.

As a challenger with heavy focus on product development, we take great pride in our contribution in ensuring user-friendly solutions for the market. Now we will start writing a new chapter in this story,” says Jesper Nielsen, member of the Executive Board in Danske Bank Group, and Chairman of MobilePay.
