Giropay for WooCommerce POS
Giropay — Germany's bank-led payment scheme — on the Oliver POS.
Powered through the Mollie / Stripe / Adyen — Giropay-capable WooCommerce gateways plugin — install it on WordPress, configure under WooCommerce → Settings → Payments, and Oliver picks it up at the register automatically.
How Giropay works with Oliver POS for WooCommerce
Giropay was operated by the German savings banks and used for direct online bank transfers. Although the consumer-facing brand has been retired in favour of EPI (European Payment Initiative), the legacy plugins remain widely deployed. Oliver POS makes Giropay available inside the in-POS browser view.
Giropay's history and current status
Giropay was launched by the German Sparkassen and cooperative banks as a domestic answer to PayPal. In 2024 the consumer-facing brand was retired in favour of the EPI wero wallet, but the WooCommerce gateways still expose Giropay where it remains active on merchant accounts. Where the legacy Giropay flow remains supported, Oliver POS surfaces it at the register.
Giropay at the Oliver POS register
From the Oliver register, the cashier picks a Giropay-capable gateway (Mollie, Stripe, Adyen); Oliver opens the hosted page in the in-POS browser view; the customer picks Giropay and their bank from the list; they authenticate inside their bank's online portal; the transfer completes; Oliver writes the WooCommerce order.
When to keep Giropay enabled
For older German customers and retailers with established Giropay marketing, keeping it enabled in the WooCommerce plugin makes sense. New retailers in Germany should also enable Sofort and EPS for broader coverage.
Best fit for retailers who…
Enable Giropay at the Oliver POS if you're a German retailer with existing Giropay customers. Pair with Sofort, EPS, and cards for full coverage.

Common questions about Giropay on Oliver POS
May partnership ba ang Oliver POS sa Giropay?
Hindi. Hindi partner ng Oliver ang Giropay o anumang ibang payment gateway. Sinusuportahan namin ang Giropay dahil mayroon itong WooCommerce gateway plugin — binubuksan ng Oliver ang hosted checkout sa loob ng in-POS browser view. Ang iyong account, iyong mga rate, at iyong support contract ay mananatili sa pagitan mo at ng Giropay.
Naniningil ba ng extra ang Oliver para gamitin ang Giropay?
Hindi. Babayaran mo ang standard published rates ng Giropay nang direkta sa Giropay. Hindi kumukuha ng markup ang Oliver, hindi isinasali ang sarili sa money flow, at hindi naniningil ng per-transaction fee on top.
