Shopify UPI Integration: How to Bypass High Payment Gateway Charges
VyaparGateway Team
Payments Editorial
Shopify is the ultimate platform for building an online store. But for Indian merchants, the biggest pain point isn't marketing—it's payment gateway fees.
The Shopify Fee Trap
Most merchants integrate standard gateways that charge ~2% on domestic transactions. Worse, Shopify often tacks on an additional 0.5% to 2% 'third-party transaction fee' depending on your plan. You could be losing up to 4% on a single UPI order!
How to Bypass These Charges
The secret to bypassing high fees is using a direct UPI integration app designed specifically to skip percentage-based platform charges.
Using VyaparGateway on Shopify
VyaparGateway provides a Shopify-compatible integration that allows you to present a dynamic UPI QR code or an Intent Button (for mobile users) directly at checkout.
- Create your VyaparGateway account.
- Install the integration on your Shopify admin panel.
- Configure your webhook secret to ensure secure, real-time order confirmation.
- Launch. Customers tap 'Pay via UPI', your 0% fee engine takes over, and Shopify marks the order as paid instantly.
With this setup, your UPI transactions are completely free from the gateway's percentage skim, significantly improving your net profit.
Frequently asked questions
