Danish consumers are accustomed to card- and app-centric payments, and cash use has been sharply declining for a long time, making it a market with low barriers to wallet-based payment adoption. Given the Nordic tendency to talk about iOS wallets more often, the Android and Chrome user base is still a meaningful size, and for them Google Pay offers a one-click path with no card number entry. It's also an advantage that stored cards are replaced with tokens, so the actual card number is never passed to the merchant.

Web-centric commerce—especially desktop and mobile web stores with a meaningful share of Chrome browser checkout—commonly adopts it as a pair with Apple Pay when trying to raise checkout completion rates among Danish customers. Deploying both wallets together provides a consistent one-click experience regardless of device ecosystem.

When the consumer taps the Google Pay button, the card saved to their account is invoked as a token, and the payment is approved via device unlock or biometric authentication. This device authentication is used to satisfy PSD2's SCA (Strong Customer Authentication) requirement. Hecto Financial collects the approved amount in DKK, converts it, and settles it in the currency selected in the contract—USD, KRW, or JPY.

Since Google Pay is also a wallet layered on top of card payment infrastructure, it needs to be reviewed together with Hecto Financial's card integration terms. Please confirm supported browser and app environments, contract eligibility for a Korea-registered business, and fees and settlement cycle through consultation.

• Business registration country

  Confirm contract eligibility as a business registered in Korea

• Sales channels

  Integration method and priority vary depending on your online sales channel mix—owned store, open marketplaces, mobile app, etc.

• Product categories

  You need to check in advance whether your products fall under categories restricted by Google Pay's operator merchant policy

• EU regulatory compliance

  Confirm compliance with EU payment regulations such as PSD2 and SEPA (see official sources below)

Transactions routed through Google Pay ultimately follow the same card settlement framework, so the same structure applies: collection in DKK, conversion, and domestic settlement in the selected currency—USD, KRW, or JPY. Refunds are returned to the original card used, and you should confirm the refund processing timeline at contract time, taking into account the 14-day withdrawal requests that are common in European distance sales.
