Key Points:

• Payrexx QR Pay is the popular QR code payment solution from Payrexx, which enables flexible on-site collection. The QR code can simply be scanned with the phone's camera and connected to over 200 different payment methods.

• The Click to Pay feature 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 once for Click to Pay and then pay with just a few clicks – without having to remember a password.

• Payrexx reduces the fees: Comerciante pay only 1.25% per transaction for all common Swiss payment methods they use via Payrexx QR Pay until April 2026, with no additional costs.

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

A simplicity from which the national payment provider Payrexx's QR Pay solution will also benefit in the future. Payrexx QR Pay works similarly to what Swiss people are already familiar with from TWINT: simply scan the QR code with the phone to pay. However, Payrexx's solution goes a step further. Instead of exclusively using an app, these QR codes can be directly scanned with the smartphone's camera, with a variety of payment methods stored. This makes Payrexx QR Pay versatile and particularly attractive for Comerciante with international customers.

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

"Our goal is a seamless payment experience, everywhere, for everyone. Click to Pay from Visa in QR Pay brings us one big step closer to this goal and sets the new standard for fast and hurdle-free payments," says 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. Especially small businesses like farm stores, which have often relied on analog payments before, can be supported in their path toward digitization and serve their customers more easily, even when they 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 excited to see that the technology can do even more."

Exclusive Transaction Fees

To best establish the improved QR Pay solution from Payrexx among both existing and new Comerciante, a one-year promotion was launched together with Visa. As part of this, Payrexx reduces 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, over 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 particularly cares about small businesses. Accordingly, the Thun payment provider has mainly focused on SMEs, non-profit organizations, associations, and federations 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 Comerciante or private individuals who want to generate significant impact with little effort. QR codes can either be embedded online or placed offline as stickers or table displays. No additional technology is required, which speaks for cost-saving use: as long as buyers' mobile phones have internet access, Payrexx QR Pay is ready to use.

Payrexx's QR payment solution is characterized by a variety of uses. Whether at a club festival, for market stalls, self-service stores, or as part of vending machines: Payrexx QR Pay is already used in a variety of ways today and hopefully will simplify the daily routine of many more Comerciante in the future – thanks to Click to Pay with Visa!
