At the moment it’s really discouraging for visitors like myself (I love Norway and keep coming back) to find the car parks and toll roads that only take cash in an envelope or VIPPS. If I want to park at a trailhead I need to drive to the nearest cash machine (often some way off), then buy something to get the right amount of change, then drive back to the trailhead to go hiking an hour after I got there the first time. It isn’t very tourist friendly.

It’s very, very curious that you blame Norway for this, rather than the Americans running the event who made the decision! What an odd thought process you have!

I don’t have a cellphone able to handle apps, so no go.
This high-barrier development is no credit to Norway … and no surprise.
By contrast, Americans try to make things as *widely* accessible … and simple … as possible.
So what’s next? No food at all without VIPPS?

Really, I hope it will be possible in the future!

This is true, I have a D Number, but not a BankID so I can’t register for vipps.

Maybe ask Vipps about that.
