The missing solution holding back recurring revenue for Portuguese businesses
The Growth-Limiting Problem
If you run a Shopify store targeting Portuguese customers, you’ve likely hit a critical limitation: Shopify Payments does not support MBWay or Multibanco for subscriptions.
This technical gap blocks thousands of Portuguese businesses from scaling recurring revenue. When customers can’t pay with MBWay, conversions drop — and revenue is left on the table.
The Portuguese Market Reality
Over 3 million Portuguese consumers actively use MBWay. For many, it’s the preferred digital payment method — often ahead of credit cards.
- Lower conversions due to forced card-only payments
- Market exclusion of MBWay-first customers
- Competitive disadvantage against brands offering local payment options

This is not a workaround. It’s a fully integrated system that preserves Shopify’s native subscription logic.
