Paytm pioneers QR code payments tagged as ‘one of India’s biggest achievement’ by user; say it’s literally everywhere

The leader in mobile payments is empowering sellers, shopkeepers and other merchants across the country with its payment solutions.

From big metros to the remotest places of the country, Paytm QR code can be found anywhere – be it a grocery store, street vendor or mall. All Paytm users have to do is scan the code and pay. From Paytm Wallet to Paytm UPI and other UPI apps, users of the app can also make UPI payments through their eligible RuPay credit cards, thereby increasing the merchant’s ability to accept a wider range of payment methods.

Recently, the company shared in a blog how a Twitter user, Mudit Hastir, wrote in a tweet that he can find a QR code scan ‘literally everywhere’. Hastir shared a picture in which a Paytm QR code can be seen along with a street vendor selling lemonade and captioned it, “Payment through QR code scan is one of India’s biggest achievement…. It’s literally everywhere!”

This strong presence has made Paytm the leader in merchant payments with a strong merchant network of over 30 million partners. Today more and more merchants in the country are choosing QR codes as their reliable means of online transactions. Paytm QR Code is not only safe to use, but it also helps merchants grow their business.

Merchants can also generate a unique QR code from their billing POS/system for a specific order/bill and control the order amount. The QR code can be easily displayed to the customer on a mobile device and facilitates payment through Paytm or any UPI app. Merchants can set up Paytm QR at zero cost and use it to accept payments from various sources such as Paytm Wallet, Paytm Postpaid, UPI, Debit Card, Credit Card and Net Banking.
