Key Highlights
- In line with the country's planned migration to the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross-Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET), Denmark launched the Instant Payment Settlement TIPS-DKK, replacing Straksclearing in April 2025. In TIPS, all instant payments are settled individually and in real time. It allows payment institutions (including non-bank payment service providers) and electronic money institutions to participate directly in the settlement of payments in the core payment systems, including T2 and TIPS, without having to go through a bank. It operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year. The limit per transaction is DKK500,000 ($72,521.78).
- Contactless payment options have been integrated into public transportation systems. In October 2024, Denmark's public transport electric ticketing system, Rejsekort, announced it would phase out the traditional blue check-in terminals used for physical Rejsekort cards. This transition is expected to pave the way for direct credit and debit card payments on public transport; further simplifying the fare payment process. The new system is anticipated to be implemented by 2026, aligning with Denmark's goal of achieving nearly-universal adoption of mobile ticketing solutions.
- The Italian payment processor Nexi solidified its position as the leading player in Denmark's acquiring market, following the acquisition of Nets. In May 2025, to further reinforce its market presence, Nexi introduced Tap to Pay for iPhone users. This innovation allows merchants to transform iOS devices, including iPhones, into payment terminals capable of accepting various contactless payment methods, such as Apple Pay, contactless credit and debit cards, and other digital wallets.
