Almost every Swiss person knows TWINT. By 2023, as many as 5 million people were already using the app. And, as the Online Retailer Survey 2023 showed, almost 80 percent of all online merchants already accept payments with TWINT. TWINT has also implemented a 'Buy now, pay later' solution with ‘TWINT Pay Later’.

However, TWINT also has its disadvantages. For instance, you can only make payments with TWINT by having the money directly debited from your own bank account or a linked credit card. If you want to use another digital wallet or payment method, such as Apple Pay, Alipay or iDEAL, TWINT cannot be used. This particularly limits businesses that focus on customers from abroad. Travellers from China will appreciate paying with the familiar WeChat Pay when visiting Switzerland. Moreover, tourists usually do not have the TWINT app, making scanning the code impossible for them.

This problem is solved by Payrexx QR Pay. The innovative tool offers you the simplicity and speed of TWINT and opens the door to the global market for you. When you create your QR code with Payrexx, you can choose which payment methods you want to offer. At the same time, creating the code is just as simple as with the TWINT application. And: Your QR code created with Payrexx can be scanned both via the TWINT app and directly with the camera function of any smartphone. You thus get two codes in one.

Step by step to the TWINT QR Code with Payrexx

If you are already a Payrexx customer, you can accept payments via QR code in just four steps. This works as follows:

1. Log in to Payrexx.com: To access your backend and thus all of Payrexx's tools, you need to log in and have Swiss Collecting activated. Not a Payrexx customer yet? Then register for free now.

2. Generate and download QR code: Go to 'Merchant Tools' in your Payrexx backend to 'QR Pay' and create your QR code according to your wishes - with open, fixed or minimum amounts.

3. Print and place QR code: The generated QR code can be downloaded either as an image file (PNG or SVG) or directly as a QR poster and then placed visibly on your website or in your business.

4. Let customers scan and complete payment: Your customers can scan the code either via the TWINT app or directly via the smartphone camera, taking them to the payment page. Here they only have to enter and confirm their payment details. The transaction is complete!

   
   

   With Payrexx QR Pay, you can accept payments in all popular payment methods, such as TWINT, PostFinance, Mastercard, Visa, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and many more. You do not have to deal with the individual companies or banks, no elaborate registrations or reading contracts. With Payrexx, you get everything from a single source.

A thousand and one uses

Payrexx's new payment tool is not only easy to use and quick to apply, but you can also use the innovative tool in countless situations. Here are some thought experiments:

Payrexx QR Pay requires no additional infrastructure. Imagine your football club is holding a club festival and wants to sell tickets on site. Organising the event is already effort enough, a whole cash system would be an additional investment. With Payrexx QR Pay, you do not need a terminal or a cash register, just the printed QR code. This makes preparation easier and ensures a festival that even the organisers can enjoy!

Payrexx QR Pay operates completely autonomously. Suppose you own a farm shop in the countryside. The business should operate even when you are not constantly on site. Thanks to Payrexx QR Pay, passers-by and walkers can pay without your presence: The process is simple, after scanning, customers are guided step-by-step, and depending on the purchase, they can enter the amount themselves. This makes the payment process self-running.

Payrexx QR Pay is also usable offline. Imagine you run a Après-Ski Bar in winter, high up on the mountain, away from any internet connection. While most terminals require a WLAN connection, Payrexx QR Pay works for you as a merchant even without a network. Since you have already defined and taken the QR codes with you at home, only the customers' smartphones need to have reception. You don't have to set up a router in the bar.

Whether it's a farm shop, vending machine, or tickets for a spontaneous event: With Payrexx QR Pay, you can sell all sorts of things
quickly and easily.

Payrexx QR Pay knows no boundaries. Suppose you organise a fundraising event for a charitable organisation. To reach as many people as possible, you go to a busy square in the city - and automatically meet many tourists. Even if they are convinced of your cause, travellers usually do not carry enough cash with them. And entering sensitive contact details in a form is also off-putting. With Payrexx QR Pay, the payment process is not only low-threshold, but you can also implement a wide range of payment options. This allows visitors from around the world to do good - and with their familiar payment method.

Payrexx QR Pay operates via dynamic interfaces. Suppose your dairy decides to set up a vending machine - so that customers can stock up on your famously infamous fondue even on Sundays. The vending machine technology itself is already complex and expensive, so implementing a payment provider should be as simple as possible. Payrexx QR Pay is ideal for this: Thanks to our API, you can integrate Payrexx into your software with minimal effort. The QR codes are then created via a dynamic interface, and each purchase receives an individual code. Does this sound incredibly complicated? Our developers will of course help you with the
