Payments
How people in the Netherlands pay online.
iDEAL is how most Dutch people pay online: they choose their bank and approve the payment in their banking app. It now carries the name iDEAL | Wero as it moves to the European Wero wallet over 2026 and 2027. Paying afterwards (achteraf betalen) is popular too, and Klarna’s “Pay later” covers it. Cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay suit visitors from abroad, and SEPA Direct Debit fits regular payments.
Before you start
Selling online in the Netherlands: what to know.
KvK number and btw-id on your site
Dutch webshops show their KvK number, their btw-identificatienummer (the VAT ID, not the omzetbelastingnummer that sole traders also get), their address, email and phone number. Put them in the footer or on your Contact page so customers find them before they order.
Btw, or the KOR
Standard btw is 21%, and 9% for most food and books. With turnover of at most €20,000 a year, this year and last, you can join the small businesses scheme (KOR) and charge no btw. It isn’t automatic: you apply to the Belastingdienst at least four weeks before the btw period it should start in.
Herroepingsrecht
Consumers may cancel within 14 days of receiving their order, and you refund within 14 days, standard delivery included. Explain how before they buy. Since 19 June 2026, EU rules also expect an online withdrawal function on the website; Cornerrr adds one to your store’s footer and emails the customer an acknowledgement of receipt; mention it where you explain herroeping.
Prices with btw and every cost
Show consumer prices including btw, and show shipping and any other costs before the customer orders. With Stripe Tax on, its automatic setting treats euro prices as including btw, so a product’s price doesn’t grow at checkout.
Product safety details
Since December 2024, EU product safety rules ask online listings to show the manufacturer’s name and address (or an EU-based responsible person for goods made outside the EU), what identifies the product, and any warnings. Add them to each product description.
AVG, the Dutch GDPR
The AVG (the Dutch name for GDPR) covers your customer data and is overseen by the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens. Publish a privacy statement that names the services you use, such as Stripe, and ask only for what you need in forms. Cornerrr’s AI drafts one for you to review.
General information, current as of October 2026, not legal or tax advice. Rules and rates change, so check them with an accountant or adviser, or the official sources, before you rely on them.
Cornerrr
Built for businesses in the Netherlands
Prices in euros
Set your store’s currency to EUR and your products, shipping rates and checkout use it. Cornerrr works with about 140 currencies, one per web address.
VAT at checkout
Turn on Stripe Tax in your Stripe account and Cornerrr asks it to work out VAT for each order at checkout, on any paid plan. You can collect business customers’ VAT numbers too.
Your words in Dutch
Describe your business in Dutch and Cornerrr writes your pages in Dutch. Stripe Checkout shows in Dutch too. A few built-in cart and account labels are still in English today.
Local ways to pay
Checkout is Stripe’s own, so the local payment methods you turn on in Stripe show up for the customers who can use them, next to cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Local tips
Make it feel local
Say exactly when it arrives
Next-day delivery is common in the Netherlands, so be exact about your dispatch days. If you can keep a promise like “ordered before 17:00, delivered tomorrow”, say it; if you make things by hand, say how many days it takes instead.
Name PostNL, DHL or a pickup point
PostNL and DHL deliver most small parcels, and many people have them sent to a pickup point near home. Say which carrier you use and add the tracking number to each order; with DHL, the shipping email links straight to tracking.
Write plain, direct Dutch
Dutch customers prefer clear prices and plain words to big promises. Describe your shop in Dutch, keep product texts short and factual, and ask the assistant to use je or u the same way on every page.
Earn trust before trust marks
Trust marks such as Thuiswinkel Waarborg are well known, but they come with membership conditions and costs. Start with what every shopper checks: your KvK number, a real address, clear delivery costs and an easy returns page.

Questions
Good to know
Can my webshop be in Dutch?
Yes. Describe your business in Dutch and Cornerrr writes the website’s words in Dutch, and Stripe’s checkout page is shown in Dutch as well. Some built-in labels on the cart and account pages are still in English today; the add-to-cart and checkout buttons can be renamed.
Can customers pay with iDEAL | Wero?
Yes. Turn on iDEAL | Wero in your Stripe Dashboard and it appears at checkout for euro payments. Customers pick their bank, approve in their banking app, and the payment is confirmed straight away.
Do I need to register with the KvK to sell online?
Usually yes. If you sell regularly and aim to make a profit, the KvK sees you as an entrepreneur and you register before you start; the Belastingdienst then sends your btw numbers. The KvK website has a short test to check. This is general information, not tax advice.
Can I sell to Belgium and Germany as well?
Yes. Add them to the countries you ship to and set fixed rates. Once your sales to consumers in other EU countries pass €10,000 a year in total, you charge their VAT rate instead of 21% and can declare it through the One-Stop Shop; Stripe Tax applies their rates once you add that registration.
Do I need any technical skills?
No. You describe your business in your own words and Cornerrr builds the website. Afterwards you change things by clicking, or by asking the assistant in plain words.
How much does it cost?
Building and previewing your website is free, with no card needed. To go live and take payments, choose a plan from $19 a month. Every paid plan starts with a 14-day free trial; a card is needed to start it.
