Shopify for Kuwait,
where checkout starts with KNET.

In Kuwait, KNET — the national debit network — is how a large share of shoppers pay online. A store without it loses sales at the last step. Kuwait also prices in dinars with three decimals and has no VAT at present.

Can a Shopify store accept KNET in Kuwait?

Yes, through a payment gateway that supports KNET on Shopify. We select the gateway with you, test KNET alongside cards and Apple Pay, set prices in KWD with three decimals, and configure delivery across Kuwait’s governorates — all built and supported from the UAE.

common questions.

Does Shopify support KNET?

KNET is available through payment gateways that support it on Shopify. We confirm the right gateway for your company and test it end to end.

Is there VAT on online sales in Kuwait?

Kuwait has not introduced VAT at present, so prices are set without it. The store is configured so this can change without a rebuild.

Can Shopify display Kuwaiti dinar prices?

Yes. KWD is supported with three decimals, and we check that the theme, apps and invoices display it correctly.
