Virtually every Swiss person knows TWINT. In 2023, already a total of 5 million people used the app. And, as the 2023 online retailer survey showed, you can now pay with TWINT at almost 80 percent of all online retailers. TWINT has also now implemented a “Buy now, pay later” solution with “TWINT Pay Later”.

But TWINT also has its disadvantages. One such issue is that you can only pay via TWINT by having the money directly debited from your own bank account or linked credit card. If you instead want to pay using another digital wallet or payment method, such as Apple Pay, Alipay or iDEAL, you cannot use TWINT. This particularly limits businesses that focus on customers from abroad. Travelers from China visiting Switzerland will appreciate being able to pay with the familiar WeChat Pay. Additionally, tourists usually do not have the TWINT app, which makes it impossible for them to scan the code.

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. By creating your QR code through Payrexx, you can choose which payment methods you want to offer. At the same time, generating the code is as simple as with the TWINT application. And: Your QR code created with Payrexx can be scanned both via the TWINT app and directly via the camera function of any smartphone. You thus get two codes in one.

   With Payrexx QR Pay, you can receive payments in all popular payment methods, such as TWINT, PostFinance, Mastercard, Visa, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and many more. You don’t have to deal with individual companies or banks, carry out complex registrations, or read through contracts. At Payrexx, you get everything from one source.

A Thousand and One Applications

The new payment tool from Payrexx is not only easy to use and quick to apply, but you can also use the innovative tool in countless situations. Here are a few ideas:

Payrexx QR Pay requires no additional infrastructure. Suppose your football club is hosting a club party and wants to sell tickets on site. Organizing the event is already enough effort, and a whole cash register system is an additional investment. With Payrexx QR Pay you need neither a terminal nor a cash register, just the printed QR code. This makes preparations easier and ensures a party that even the organizers can enjoy!

Payrexx QR Pay functions 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 also pay without your presence: the process is simple, after scanning they are guided through the process step by step, and depending on the purchase, they can enter the amount themselves. This makes the payment process a self-runner.

Payrexx QR Pay is also usable offline. Suppose you run a Après-Ski bar in winter, high up on the mountain, away from internet access. 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 home, only the customers' smartphones need to have reception. You do not need to install a router in the bar.

No matter whether it’s a farm shop, vending machine or tickets for a spontaneous event: With Payrexx QR Pay you can sell anything
quickly and easily.

Payrexx QR Pay knows no bounds. Suppose you are organizing a fundraiser for a charitable organization. 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, travelers often do not carry enough cash with them. And entering sensitive contact data into a form is additionally discouraging. With Payrexx QR Pay, the payment process is not only low-threshold, but you can also implement a wide variety of payment types. Thus, visitors from around the globe can do good – and even with their familiar payment method.

Payrexx QR Pay operates through dynamic interfaces. Suppose your cheese dairy decides to set up a vending machine – so that customers can stock up on your famous fondue even on Sundays. The vending machine technology itself is already complex and expensive; 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 that sound insanely complicated? Our developers are, of course, here to
