Bookkeeping

Sales figures for your bookkeeping

See sales, VAT, and fees for each month, ready for your books and VAT return.

How the money moves

Vipps MobilePay pays you directly. Svippit invoices its fee separately.

1

The customer pays in Vipps

Your buyer pays in the Vipps or MobilePay app. Prices in your store include VAT, like in every other Nordic shop.

2

Vipps pays your account

Vipps MobilePay settles the money straight to your business account, minus its own transaction fee. Svippit never holds your money.

3

Svippit invoices its fee

On the 15th of the following month you get one invoice for the platform fee on last month's sales. Below 10 NOK there is no invoice.

What you book

Use your sales report, the Vipps MobilePay settlement report, and the Svippit invoice.

The Reports page shows the month's captured sales, incl. VAT. Download the monthly CSV for details, with one row per order.

VAT in your reports

If you are VAT-registered

The Reports page splits every month's sales by VAT rate: basis, VAT and total. Add up the months in your VAT period and you have the figures for the return. Rates come from what you set on each product, so an e-book can be 0 % and a course 25 %.

If you are not

Norwegian stores do nothing: Svippit reads the VAT register (Merverdiavgiftsregisteret) and sells without VAT for as long as you are not in it, whatever rate your products carry. Leave the rates as they are; they take effect once your registration shows in Enhetsregisteret. Danish and Finnish stores set the VAT rate on their products to 0 %. The year table on the Reports page shows your sales month by month and in total for the calendar year. It does not warn you near the threshold, so compare the figures yourself; for Norway's rolling 12 months, add up the months across the turn of the year.

When registration becomes mandatory

  • Norway
    50 000 NOK turnover in a rolling 12-month period
  • Denmark
    50 000 DKK turnover in a calendar year
  • Finland
    20 000 EUR turnover in a calendar year

Rules and rates change and depend on what you sell. Your accountant or the tax authority has the final word; Svippit gives you the numbers.

Common questions about accounting and VAT

Does Svippit hold my money?

No. Vipps MobilePay settles every sale directly to your business account. Svippit sends a separate invoice for its fee once a month.

Is there VAT on the Svippit fee?

Yes, from 3 October 2026. Norwegian stores pay 25 % VAT on top of the fee, which VAT-registered merchants deduct as input VAT. Danish and Finnish stores pay no Norwegian VAT and account for it under the reverse charge in their own country. Sales before 3 October 2026 are invoiced without VAT, and the Reports page shows the fee's VAT for every month.

Is there VAT on the Vipps fee?

Payment services are exempt from VAT in Norway, Denmark and Finland, so the Vipps MobilePay fee is booked as a cost without VAT. The exact amounts are in the settlement report in the Vipps MobilePay portal.

Which VAT rate should my products have?

The rate that applies to what you sell in your country: the standard rate for most goods and services, reduced rates for things like food. If you are not VAT-registered, a Norwegian store sells without VAT whatever the rate, because Svippit reads the VAT register; Danish and Finnish stores set 0 %. You set the rate per product; ask your accountant if you are unsure.

When does a sale count?

Once you have captured the payment. It is dated to the day the customer paid. Reserved but uncaptured payments are not sales, and cancelled or expired reservations never appear.

What happens with refunds?

A refund lowers the sales figure for the month the order was paid. If that month has not been invoiced yet, the Svippit fee goes down with it; once the invoice has gone out, the fee stays as invoiced. A partial refund shows per order in the CSV; a fully refunded order leaves the CSV and the sales figure.

Can my accountant get the numbers?

Download the monthly CSV and invoice PDF and send them to your accountant.

Bookkeeping reports are included for every store.
