Merchant guide

QR payments

QR payments let customers scan a code and pay by card on their own phone — no card reader required for that sale. Under the hood it is the same rail as a payment link; the QR is the in-person way to open it.

Last updated:

Available on:

  • Web — Payment links (create → show QR) and Register / Sell (Payment link tender)
  • Mobile Business — Sell → Payment link / QR
  • POS terminals — QR tender on S700 / S710 when offered

Prerequisites

  • Plan chosen and payment setup ready
  • Capability Payment links enabled
  • For catalog QR: Products enabled and items with a sellable channel

How it works

  1. You create a charge (amount or products).
  2. BaxPay shows a QR that encodes the pay URL.
  3. The customer scans with their camera.
  4. They pay by card on the hosted payment page.
  5. You see Paid in Transactions — same settlements as links and terminals.

Customers do not need a BaxPay account.


Where to generate a QR

  1. Open Payment links → Create.
  2. Enter amount or products, optional client / expiry / location.
  3. Create → Show QR or print.
  4. Hand the screen or printout to the customer.

From Register / Sell

  1. Build a cart (or type an amount on mobile).
  2. Choose Payment link.
  3. Show the QR at the counter while stock is reserved (short TTL).

On a countertop terminal

On S700 / S710, choose the QR payment path when available, then let the customer scan the code on the terminal screen.


Tips & split with QR

When Tips or Split payments are enabled in Settings → Tips & split, QR shares can prompt for a tip and guests can pay their share by scanning QR instead of tapping a card.


Good use cases

Situation Why QR helps
Stall / market without a reader Customer pays on their phone
Secondary counter Keep the main reader free
Delivery / pop-up One amount → one scan
Customer prefers their own device Same as a payment link, no typing

FAQ

Is QR different from a payment link?
Same payment rail. QR is the scan-friendly presentation.

Can I use QR and card readers together?
Yes. Many shops keep a reader on the main till and use QR outdoors or at a second counter.

Where do I see the sale?
Transactions & settlements — same history as other card sales.
