Payment testing notes for Denmark
- Currency: DKK (Danish krone). Most gateway APIs expect amounts in the smallest unit, for example 1050 for 10.50.
- Card authentication: PSD2 strong customer authentication (Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/389, in effect since 14 September 2019) applies to customer-initiated online card payments in the EEA; cards meet it through 3-D Secure, with exemptions for some low-risk and merchant-initiated payments. Source
- Card country: Checkouts that route domestic and international cards differently decide by the BIN country. A BIN from Denmark tests the domestic route; any foreign BIN tests the cross-border one.
- Debit vs credit: 79% of the BINs from Denmark are debit ranges — a higher share than in 56 of the 62 other countries we cover. If your checkout treats debit differently (fees, installments, recurring billing), test a BIN of each type from the table above.
- Billing details: postcodes in Denmark are 4 digits (e.g. 1050); phone numbers use +45 — 8-digit numbers with no trunk prefix; mobile ranges include 20-31, 40-42, 50-55, 60-61, 71, 81 and 91-93 (xx xx xx xx).
Paying online in Denmark: local methods and gateways
Cards are only part of the picture. These payment methods are popular in Denmark and usually sit next to the card form at checkout:
- MobilePay (wallet) — Card-wallet app used in Denmark and Finland; the shopper approves in the MobilePay app and the card transaction runs underneath. Source
- Klarna (BNPL) — Pay later or in instalments; Denmark is a supported country. Source
- PayPal (wallet) — PayPal wallet, available to Danish businesses and buyers. Source

Frequently asked questions
Can I generate a Denmark credit card number for testing?
Yes. Every number on this page starts with a real BIN registered to a bank in Denmark — by default 515518 (Bokis, Mastercard debit). The remaining digits are random and the last one is a Luhn check digit. They are test data only: no account sits behind them.
Which card networks are most common in Denmark?
By BIN count in our data: Maestro 41%, Mastercard 21%, Visa 15%, Visa/Dankort 9%. Local networks: Dankort (100 BINs), Visa/Dankort (100 BINs). Debit ranges make up 79% and credit ranges 21%.
Which BINs do Visa cards from Denmark start with?
Examples from different banks: 443256 (Nordea Bank Danmark A/S); 405245 (Jyske Bank A/S); 464256 (Vestjysk Bank A/S); 405833 (Sydbank A/S). See the Denmark BIN list for every bank.
Which currency should I use to test payments from Denmark?
DKK (Danish krone). Gateway APIs usually expect amounts in the smallest unit (for example 1050 for 10.50). If you sell abroad, test DKK and your settlement currency — cards from Denmark work with both.
Can I use a generated Denmark card number to buy something?
No. They start with real BINs from banks in Denmark such as Bokis, but no bank issued them: no account, no money, no cardholder. Every real purchase, free trial or card check declines them. To pay online, use a virtual or prepaid card from your bank or a wallet such as MobilePay and PayPal. Testing a checkout? Use your gateway’s sandbox test cards.
What does a Dankort card number look like?
Dankort numbers start with 5019 and have 16 digits with a Luhn check digit. Make sure your card form accepts these prefixes instead of rejecting them as an unknown brand.
Which payment methods should a checkout for Denmark offer next to cards?
MobilePay: Card-wallet app used in Denmark and Finland; the shopper approves in the MobilePay app and the card transaction runs underneath. Klarna: Pay later or in instalments; Denmark is a supported country. PayPal: PayPal wallet, available to Danish businesses and buyers.
