The payment solution is provided by Satoshi Consult, which TRN states has developed ‘a secure and user-friendly system tailored to Norwegian regulations’.
Customers can simple place their order via Click & Collect at www.tax-free.no. Upon pickup at Oslo Airport, the customer needs to selects bitcoin as the payment method.
Next, a QR code is generated, and the customer confirms payment via their own bitcoin wallet that supports the Lightning Network. The amount is displayed in NOK (Norwegian Kroner) and settled in real time. A receipt is issued as usual.
This option currently applies only to Click & Collect upon arrival at Oslo, though TRN says it’s considering expanding to other stores and payment formats.

Global payments is truly one of the features that attracted me about Bitcoin. Kinda annoying that the payment processors still need to adhere to the patchwork of different countries' regulations though.

Yeah, platforms such as Neutron, Pouch, etc experience that first-hand. As soon as you interact with the tradfi system, you'll get to deal with those regulations (but if you can be the one to do it, there is def a market for it and potential for a succesful company).
Only using BTC the good-old fashioned way lets you avoid that.
