Shopify Payments not available in your country? Start with the payment options Shopify actually supports there
Shopify Payments is only available in supported countries and regions. If your business is outside that list, the right next step is to check Shopify's supported third-party providers for your location and compare them with any legitimate external-checkout options you qualify for.

Do not fake your store location to unlock Shopify Payments
Payment eligibility depends on the real business, owner and banking information required for the country or region. Using inaccurate information can create verification, payout and account problems later.
Option 1: use a Shopify-supported third-party provider
Shopify supports many payment providers, and availability differs by country. Some providers keep payment inside the store while external providers send the buyer to a hosted payment page.
Option 2: use a separate external checkout if you are eligible
An external checkout can keep Shopify for the storefront and fulfillment while processing future transactions through another payment platform. Eligibility still depends on that platform's own country, business and product rules.
Where Voss fits
Voss Checkout connects an existing Shopify store to the merchant's own Whop account. It does not guarantee Whop eligibility in every country or for every business type. The merchant still needs an eligible Whop account and must comply with both platforms' rules.
Compare these before choosing a provider
- Business-country eligibility.
- Supported products and business models.
- Settlement and payout currencies.
- Processing fees and Shopify transaction fees.
- Dispute and reserve policies.
- Whether the provider supports the countries where your customers buy.
