Accept Card Payments Across Europe With Viva

Viva.com Smart Checkout redirects customers to a hosted payment page, where card data stays off your server, then returns them to your store. Saved cards, renewals for subscription products, pre-authorization and admin refunds are all in J2Commerce.

Everything You Need to Take Viva Payments

Hosted checkout, saved cards for repeat buyers, renewals for subscription products, pre-authorization, and admin refunds, without leaving J2Commerce once.

Viva Smart Checkout Hosted Page
Customers enter their card on Viva's hosted page and return to your store automatically.
Card Data Off Your Server
Because card entry happens entirely on Viva's infrastructure, card numbers never reach your server.
Saved Cards for One-Tap Payment
Returning shoppers see their stored card, with brand and last four digits, and pay with one tap.
Renewals for Subscription Products
For products sold with the Subscriptions And Memberships app, renewals are charged to the stored card and declines set the failure status you choose.
Pre-Authorize Now / Capture Later
Reserve funds and capture from the order screen when you ship, or void the hold if the order falls through.
Full & Partial Refunds
Refund in full or in part from the order screen, with the refundable balance shown and enforced.
Greece Installments (Up to 36)
For Viva accounts registered in Greece, offer up to 36 installments. Installments are not available for subscription products or pre-authorization.
Surcharge, GeoZone & Order Limits
Add a percentage or fixed surcharge with optional tax, and limit Viva by region and cart value.
Demo Mode, Debug & Dashboard Warnings
Separate demo and live credentials, a dashboard banner in demo mode and debug logs with credentials left out.

A Hosted Checkout That Returns Customers to Your Store

Not all redirect checkouts are created equal. Viva Smart Checkout redirects customers to a properly European payment platform, then returns them to your store's confirmation page automatically after payment. Card data lives on Viva's servers. And your customer sees a checkout experience that feels familiar, secure, and local, not a hand-off to a brand they don't recognize.

Card data entered on Viva's servers, never touches yours
Customers return to your confirmation page automatically
Custom display name and logo, your brand, not Viva's

Use Cases

The European Made-to-Order Artisan

A Greek ceramic studio pre-authorizes custom orders and captures when each piece ships. For in-stock pieces, Greek customers can pay in installments.

The Subscription Box Business Scaling Across the Eurozone

A Eurozone food subscription sold with the Subscriptions And Memberships app charges renewals to stored cards, and declined renewals set a failure status for follow-up.

The High-Value Electronics Retailer Watching Every Refund

An online electronics store on Joomla sells items in the €200–€800 range. Returns happen. Partial returns, where a customer buys three accessories and sends one back, happen more often. Every partial refund used to mean opening the payment dashboard, finding the transaction, doing the arithmetic, confirming the refund, returning to J2Commerce to update the order manually. Now: open the order, click Issue Refund, enter the partial amount. The maximum refundable balance is shown and enforced. The order status updates. The customer's card is credited.
