Papua New Guinean Kina

With over 9 million people, Papua New Guinea is a growing eCommerce market driven by increasing internet accessibility and mobile banking adoption. The country primarily uses the Papua New Guinean Kina (PGK), and English, Tok Pisin, and Hiri Motu are the official languages. Shopify merchants who tap into this market can access local and regional customers—but only if they offer the right payment options.

Why Target Papua New Guinea’s eCommerce Market?

Shoppers in Papua New Guinea prefer local payment methods, such as bank transfers, mobile banking, and digital wallets, over traditional credit cards. Payment gateways like BSP Mobile Banking, Kina Bank, and international options like PayPal and Stripe are commonly used for online transactions. By integrating these local payment options, businesses can boost conversion rates. With CartDNA’s Shopify payment solutions, merchants from outside Papua New Guinea can start selling to this market without needing a physical presence.

Key Benefits of Local Payment Methods for Shopify Merchants

  • Higher Conversion Rates – Papua New Guinean customers trust local payment methods, reducing cart abandonment.
  • Faster Transactions – Seamless checkout experiences improve customer satisfaction.
  • Market Expansion – Reach shoppers who avoid foreign payment gateways.
  • Better Customer Trust – Local payments signal legitimacy and reliability.
  • Increased Mobile Sales – Mobile banking and digital wallets are widely used in Papua New Guinea.
  • Easy Integration with CartDNA – Start accepting local payments without a Papua New Guinean business registration.
