What Are QR Code Payments?
QR code payments are a contactless payment method that allows consumers to pay for goods and services by scanning a Quick Response (QR) code with their smartphone.
How Do QR Code Payments Work?
The process is simple:
- Merchant displays a QR code — either printed at the point of sale or shown on a screen
- Customer scans the code — using their mobile wallet app (like DuePay)
- Payment is confirmed — the customer verifies the amount and confirms
- Money transfers instantly — both parties receive confirmation
