Effortless payment processing for your summer business

Fast payment on site — with QR code

With the QR Pay tool, your customers pay quickly and conveniently on site. Do you run a drinks or ice cream stand, for example? This is how you can use QR Pay for yourself.

  1. Create code. In your Payrexx account, you create a QR code with just a few clicks.

  2. Offer code. Have the QR code ready on your smartphone or print it out and use it as a counter display.

  3. Scan. Your customers scan the QR code with their smartphone and are directed straight to your payment page.

  4. Select payment method. There, they select their preferred payment method (e.g., TWINT, PostFinance, Mastercard, or Visa), confirm the payment, and depart satisfied.

The QR payment code can be used for a wide range of applications: Let your customers pay for entry cashlessly at a summer event, for example, or sell camping equipment at a market stall. To use QR Pay, you don't even need your own website.

Send payment links — receive your money quickly and effortlessly

With a Payrexx account, you can quickly and easily create payment links and send them to your customers. Here's how it works:

  1. Create. You create a payment link in your Payrexx account and enter the payment amount as well as the recipient(s).

  2. Send. You either send the payment link immediately via email or copy it to send, for example, via WhatsApp, SMS, or your social media channel.

  3. Pay. The recipient clicks on the link and is directed to your payment page. There, he or she selects the desired payment method, enters the necessary information, and confirms the payment.

Integrate Payrexx into your system with our API— Example of Sailing School Thunersee

Have you found the perfect shop system for you and now need a reliable payment solution that you can integrate? Then do it like the Sailing School Thunersee.

This is the Sailing School Thunersee

The Sailing School Thunersee is the largest and oldest sailing school in Switzerland. The school, organised as a club, has been promoting Swiss sailing since 1935 and making it accessible to a broad population.

Under the leadership of Olympic sailor Simon Brügger, sailing courses are offered that are age-appropriate and level-appropriate. The courses take place in Hilterfingen and Spiez on Lake Thun as well as in various offshore areas. In addition, sailing boats, pedal boats, and motorboats can be rented — for a relaxing day on Lake Thun.

Integration via API

The Sailing School Thunersee has integrated Payrexx into their system via the API. According to Jamie Townsend, sailing instructor, offshore skipper, and IT manager, the integration was simple and straightforward, and the payment solution saves the sailing school's team time and effort.

“For the boat rental, we have implemented an online booking system. This way, our guests can choose their boat themselves and pay for their reservation directly through the Payrexx connection. This allows us to focus on our core business. The integration was simple — just select the option on your website and enter the API key.”

When asked why the Sailing School Thunersee chose Payrexx, Jamie Townsend responded:

“The Sailing School Thunersee is committed to sustainability and tries to source products and services locally whenever possible. Cooperation with a Thun company also strengthens the local economy.”
