How Lithuania pays
Lithuania is the largest of the Baltic markets, and its shoppers pay with bank-issued Visa and Mastercard cards in store and online. Lithuanian online shops also offer bank links: the shopper picks their bank, such as Swedbank, SEB or Luminor, signs in with Smart-ID or a similar tool, and approves the payment in their own online banking.
Lithuania also matters beyond its own shoppers: the Bank of Lithuania has licensed many electronic money and payment institutions that serve customers across the EU. Apple Pay and Google Pay complete the mix. Orchestrapay carries cards and wallets behind one integration, in euros, with routing across acquirers, frictionless 3DS under PSD2 strong customer authentication, and Lithuanian-language checkout.

Everything it takes to run payments in Lithuania
Local payment methods are only half the job. We carry the operational weight — acquiring, settlement, FX, licensing and reconciliation — so you can treat Lithuania like any other market in your stack.
One integration, growing local coverage
Connect once for what's live in Lithuania today — including international card acquiring — and add local wallets and bank rails through the same integration as we bring them online.
Local acquiring, higher approvals
We route to local acquirers and retry failed payments across alternate rails, so domestic cards and wallets authorize at local rates instead of being declined as cross-border traffic.
Settlement, FX & repatriation
Collect in the euro (EUR) and settle in your base currency. We handle the FX conversion and the local rules for moving funds out of the country — the part most global merchants underestimate.
Licensing handled locally
We're establishing locally licensed partners so you can process in-country as we expand local coverage — without standing up your own entity or chasing a license.
Payouts & reconciliation
Pay out to sellers and process refunds on the same rails you collect on, and reconcile every flow — pay-in, payout, refund — in one ledger, in local or base currency.
Fraud, disputes & compliance
Real-time screening, chargeback and dispute handling, and KYC/AML that matches local regulator expectations — built in, not bolted on.
