🇸🇪 Sweden Billie Payment Integration Guide

Billie is a B2B-only BNPL (buy-now-pay-later for corporate purchases) method operated by Germany's Billie GmbH, and it is not a payment method for general consumers (B2C). This guide is for Korean B2B businesses looking to offer deferred-payment terms to corporate customers in Sweden.

When to consider Billie payments in Sweden

Billie is a B2B-only BNPL method that offers deferred, invoice-based payment to buying companies in business-to-business transactions. It is not a method for individual consumers, so it does not apply to B2C storefronts. However, since invoice payment is standard practice in Sweden not only for consumer commerce but also for corporate purchasing, Korean businesses selling office supplies, industrial goods, or SaaS to corporate customers in Sweden can consider it as a way to offer buying companies a 'buy now, pay later' arrangement.

Because purchasing staff can place orders on an invoice basis without needing corporate card limits or complex credit procedures, it lowers the conversion barrier for online B2B sales. If the counterparty is an individual, you should consider B2C invoice methods such as Klarna or Walley instead, even though they belong to the same deferred-payment family; before adoption, confirm the scope of service for corporate customers in Sweden with Hecto Financial.

Basic flow of Billie payments in Sweden

When a buying company selects Billie at checkout, a real-time assessment of the company's credit is performed, and on approval, the order is confirmed under deferred invoice terms. The buying company pays by the invoice due date, and the risk of non-payment is assumed by Billie; the merchant is paid based on the authorized transaction, and Hecto Financial receives it in SEK.

Hecto Financial's Billie coverage

Integrating through Hecto Financial lets a Korean company explore adopting Billie payments without a separate local contract in Sweden. Whether support is actually available, and the terms (settlement cycle, fees, currency options), vary depending on the merchant's business category and transaction volume, so confirmation with the Hecto Financial sales team is needed before signing a contract.

※ This section describes the general support process and does not guarantee that integration is actually available for any specific merchant. Please confirm the exact scope of support and fees through consultation.

What to check before applying and integrating

  • Business registration country

    Confirm whether a contract can be signed on the basis of a Korean business registration

  • Sales channels

    The integration method and priorities differ depending on your online sales channel mix, such as your own site, marketplaces, and mobile apps

  • Product categories

    Check in advance whether your business falls under a category restricted by Billie's merchant policy

  • EU regulatory compliance

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

Settlement currency, settlement cycle, and refund terms

Even for B2B transactions, the settlement structure is the same. Hecto Financial converts the amount it receives in SEK and settles it to the Korean merchant in whichever of USD, KRW, or JPY was selected under the contract, with the settlement cycle following the contract. Note that the EU's 14-day right of withdrawal is a consumer (B2C) protection scheme and, in principle, does not apply to business-to-business transactions, so B2B return and credit-note terms should be set out separately in a commercial agreement.

Sweden Billie Payment FAQ

QWe run a general consumer storefront targeting Swedish customers — can we add Billie?
No. Billie is exclusively for B2B transactions where the buyer is a business (a company or sole proprietor). If you need deferred payment for individual consumers, consider B2C invoice methods such as Klarna or Walley in Sweden instead.
QIf a Swedish corporate customer pays in SEK, how does our company receive the funds?
The buying company's payment currency is SEK, but Hecto Financial receives and converts it, then settles it domestically in whichever of USD, KRW, or JPY was selected under the contract. The settlement cycle follows the contract terms.
QCan this be adopted without a local entity in Sweden?
When integrating through Hecto Financial, it is sometimes possible to contract on the basis of a Korean entity. However, whether support is available depends on the business category and transaction structure, so confirmation through consultation is needed.
QWhat restrictions must be confirmed before signing a contract?
You must confirm Billie's business category restriction policy, merchant account eligibility requirements, and the dispute-handling procedure before signing a contract.
