The Most Important Points at a Glance:

• Payrexx QR Pay is the popular QR-code payment solution by Payrexx, which allows flexible collection on site. The QR code can simply be scanned with the mobile camera and linked with over 200 different payment methods.

• The Click to Pay payment function with Visa has been integrated into Payrexx QR Pay, so customers no longer have to manually enter their data. Instead, they register their Visa cards for Click to Pay once and then pay with just a few clicks – without having to remember a password.

• Payrexx reduces the fees: Comerciantes still pay only 1.25 % per transaction for all common Swiss payment methods they use via Payrexx QR Pay until April 2026, without additional costs.

Click to Pay with Visa is a game changer when it comes to speed in the online payment process: While customers were previously often forced to laboriously type in their credit or debit card data, a one-time registration is now sufficient. This way, the customer is automatically recognised at checkout and can simply select and pay with the stored cards – all with just a few clicks.

An ease from which the QR Pay solution of the national payment provider Payrexx will also benefit in the future. Payrexx QR Pay works similarly to what Swiss people are already used to with TWINT: Simply scan the QR code with the mobile phone and pay. But the solution from Payrexx goes one step further. Instead of exclusively with an app, these QR codes can be scanned directly with the smartphone camera and a variety of payment methods can be stored. This makes Payrexx QR Pay versatile and particularly attractive for Comerciantes with international customers.

The biggest problem of this innovative solution: Anyone who wanted to pay with a credit or debit card via Payrexx QR Pay previously had to manually type in their card data – a time-consuming hurdle that Payrexx is now overcoming together with Visa. With the integration of Click to Pay, registered customers can now also pay quickly and easily via QR code with the card.

«Our goal is a seamless payment experience, everywhere, for everyone. Click to Pay by Visa in QR Pay brings us a big step closer to that ambition and sets the new standard for fast, hurdle-free payments», rejoices Ivan Schmid, CEO and founder of Payrexx AG.

«Switzerland is a true pioneer in the introduction of this innovation. Such success is only possible through close cooperation with strong local partners like Payrexx. Particularly small businesses like farm shops, which have often relied on analogue payments until now, can be supported on their way to digitalisation and serve their customers more easily, even if they sometimes don't have cash on hand», says Santosh Ritter, Country Manager Switzerland and Liechtenstein at Visa. «In recent years, the industry has made great strides together in simplifying card payments on the internet with Click to Pay. We are pleased to see that the technology is capable of even more.»

Exclusive Transaction Fees

In order to establish the improved QR Pay solution from Payrexx as best as possible with both existing and new Comerciantes, a one-year promotion has been launched together with Visa. In this context, Payrexx reduces the transaction costs to a low 1.25 % + 0.00 EUR per payment – for all relevant Swiss payment methods! Because Payrexx QR Pay works not only with Visa, but also with Mastercard, TWINT, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Additionally, more than 200 national and international payment methods can be stored, including PayPal, Klarna, POWERPAY or Centi.

As a small payment provider with regional roots, which started as a start-up and has worked its way up, Payrexx has a heart for particularly small companies. Accordingly, the Thun-based payment provider has mainly focused on SMEs, non-profit organisations, associations and clubs in recent years. The goal is to make it as easy as possible for all these companies to accept payments – regardless of their capital or know-how.

Payrexx QR Pay is the ideal solution for Comerciantes or individuals who want to generate a lot of impact with little effort. The QR codes can either be embedded online or placed offline as stickers or table displays. Additionally, no additional technology is required, which speaks for a cost-saving use: As long as buyers' mobile phones have access to the internet, Payrexx QR Pay is ready for use.

The QR payment solution from Payrexx is characterised by a wide variety of applications. Whether at a club event, for market stalls, self-service shops or as part of vending machines: Payrexx QR Pay is already being used in a variety of ways today and will hopefully make everyday life easier for many more Comerciantes in the future – thanks to Click to Pay with Visa!
